hi, may i ask you for the stl files of the CAD X-57?

[@hanleyinnovations]

Thanks for your message. The CAD file can be obtained from the OpenVSP hangar via this link:
hangar.openvsp.org/vspfiles/414
Once you have the file, download OpenVSP.org (which is free) and then you can generate a stl file to any resolution and quality.
Best regards - Patrick

@@hanleyinnovations Thanks i found it two days ago. now i could know the rest of the geometry except the airfoil. could you give me the coordinate of airfoil? because in VSP only showing the 2d profile without any characteristics available...

@@ppiduniakawasanamerikaerop6084 Thanks for your reply. I do not explicitly know the coordinates of the airfoils. They are already built into the OpenVSP file and will be included with the stl file export. The section can be seen by selecting the wing and then looking at the Airfoil tab in the OpenVSP interface.
Thanks again. Please let me know if you have other questions.
Best regards,
Patrick

@@hanleyinnovations yes i could do that but no information of camber location or thickness. The only way is to make curve fitted of points in the surface and try to export it manually. But thank you!
