Can you tell me how to get my Q-2 drawing on the web site. It was at the Illinois college site but I think it would be nice at our web page or email group. It is an auto cad drawing but can be manipulated. I just need to know what is needed. Larry ----- Original Message -----

Is the drawing that you are trying to upload the same as the one I have already uploaded?? In any case, uploading files to the Q-List page is pretty easy. Go to the files section of the Q-List page (http://www.egroups.com/group/Q-LIST then Files), click on 'Upload File'. A screen appears that allows you to select the file from you computer and provide a description, then select the 'upload file' button. Don't select any of the options that cause the file to be downloaded automatically.

It has a voice input that I find really handy as it makes things much quicker. I can just say "select line parallel" while I am moving the pointer to select the line. Cuts the time almost in half. This also has raster to vector conversion so you can scan in just about anything and then manipulate it in CAD.

It's the same drawing. The students just put the dimensions on the plane. I am working to get my plane drawn in 3 dimensions. That is considerably harder than my first drawing. It was just traced from a picture in the builders manual, same with the engine. Now I am trying to get accurate dimensions so it is technically harder as the plane has few sharp corners ( your wheel pants are the exception). I don't think I can download an autocad drawing. I thought it had to be a .JPG or some other format. Do you know the best format? Larry ----- Original Message -----

At least they are smooth, sharp corners..... First off, I haven't done much with CAD/graphics in a few years so if someone is up to date - please jump in. A three dimension view would be really cool BUT it requires software beyond what the average guy possess. The list server will allow the upload of any file format, just be sure you provide an accurate description so the folks without the required software know not to bother. IMHO, jpg is the favored format for photos and graphics as it can be compressed and most everyone can view it. If you do end up using a CAD program, most of them will do an export to a common (CAD type) file format (.dxf) which may be the desire way to go. Jon -----Original Message-----

If you can export it to dxf or iges then almost every program should be able to load it. If you want to have a good three view ie jpg, export it to dxf and send it to me. I'll import it into Paint Shop Pro reduce the colors to two (ie B&W) and save as a gif. That way you can have pretty large images areas that are small in file size. I've sent dwg's this way to people who don't have acad or just wanted to look. These had areas of about 3500x1800 pixels which kept all the detail from the original drawing but the image size was only about 200K. For a more normal sized image say 800x600 it will be about 20k. Anyway thats the way I've been doing this. I'd be curious if anyone else has another way. Larry send me the dxf and I'll run it through so you can upload. Cheers Dave |

Here is an even better AutoCAD viewer, from AutoCAD:

http://www3.autodesk.com/adsk/section/0,,163255,00.html I didn't realized that they had two free viewers; WHIP! and Volo View Express. Volo View Express being the more sophisticated and allows viewing a wider range of AutoCAD files types and versions. There is an upgraded version of Volo, with more features that costs $195, but you'd probably do better buying one of the low cost cad packages like TurboCAD which include AutoCAD viewers. -john- -----Original Message-----

One possible way is to insert it into a Word for Windows document. Word can import DXF. If you want to scale it accurately, a low end CAD program which reads DXF or DWG (both AutoCad formats) would be the best. Bob F. N2000QK L Koutz wrote:

I don't know about AutoCad LT, I have no experience with it, but my guess is that it would work. I think it does most of what Regular AutoCad will do except use LISP programming. I think it may be missing some 3D also, but that shouldn't matter with these drawings. Bob F. Q200QK Jeremy Prizeovoits wrote:

As a mechanical engineer with 3d FEA/CAD/CAM experience, I would assume the model would have had to be pretty accurate if good results from the fluid analysis were to be expected.

I think the model is close, but I noticed the cowl is different, all wheel pants are different, and several areas like canard/ fuselage intersection can be different from the model. I don't know where this model came from or how the shape was obtained. Does anyone know? Larry ----- Original Message -----
