Software used to create aircraft models?
« on: February 26, 2003, 09:28:01 PM »
What software did you hitech guys use to design and render the aircraft?  I have 3DS Max...  is that whats used?

i'm taking autoCAD in school and i recently reinstalled Flight Simulator Flight Shop (VERY old design software for Microsoft Flight Simulator) on my laptop and started up drawing a plane today...  Flight Shop is tedious, doesn't allow for much detail, and its old...  designed for Win 3.1 i believe, lol...

Aces High coupled with this class im taking have revived my interest for designing stuff. heh

I'd guess it was 3dmax since thats prettymuch standard. (Though I'm talking completly out of my bellybutton here)

If you want to screw around with designing planes, take a look at X-Plane.  It's an okay flight sim which allows you to design and test planes.  There is a free demo of it which has limited scenery, and only 5 minutes of flight time, but still allows you to play with building em.
