So happy to hear that Trent! I recently made a business jet myself and really love the look of those aircraft. Would love to see your completed work :)
This is the best tutorial for beginners and everyone else out there, it's really easy to follow, and because of this series, I have made by completed Airplane. Yay Thank You Tex for this amazing series
Hey Tex, tenx to your content I have an understanding of surface modelling. I used to make simple parts using basic commands now I'm into modelling my own planes for 3d printing. Keep up 🤜
These Tutorials that you did were seriously the best that I’ve ever seen!!! There are not a lot tutorials out there and the ones that are out there aren‘t as good as yours. Big thanks to uploading these Tutorials, it really helped me a lot designing my 3d printed rc plane. Awesome work!!!
@@TEXDesignEngineering yes i do! This are the best tutorials i've ever seen 😊 looking forward to install the engines 😉 Let's see how it works with my Dash 8 RC Plane project.
Hey, this looks like super cool stuff, definitely a nice tutorial on how to get started. though looking at the real 737 aircraft, the cockpit windows are not simply cutouts of the body, but they are flat planes with no curvature in the glass. would you have any idea how one could get that detail right?
Hey Stratos2! So you could try to cut that area out using the method I showed here, but not use the bodies that were cut. Instead, you could create a new plane at an angle around the cockpit area and sketch it around that plane. Does that make sense? Feel free to ask further if you need help!
I just spent an hour trying to figure out why I am unable to create the fillets in the front windows. You skipped over it at about 14:20. But I can't create the fillets on any of them, not just the bottom two like you. It's only frustrating that I can't fix the problem, though I suppose I can just skip it for now like you did. If you figure it out, please let me know. I have really loved this tutorial as well as the Mercedes S modeling!
Thank you for sharing, that series is exactly what I was looking for and it's amazing! The only question for this chapter, as you may know, sometime the side windows of a real airplane might distribute differently on left and right side, and then direct using the split tool (apply the same distribution on both side) might fail to perform this differentiation, is there any way to make this type of details? Appreciated!
Hi Duan, thanks for your comment! It is definitely possible to apply a different cut on either sides. The first thing that comes to mind is to split the fuselage body half, about the symmetry plane. When the fuselage is split as a (LEFT FUSELAGE) + (RIGHT FUSELAGE), you could split them separately :) Let me know if that helps!
Hi Ayush, thanks so much for your kind comments. I guess each model will have its own way of being created. For making cars, I usually use surface modelling. I have received a lot of requests for this but need some more time and resources to make the videos properly! If you want help earlier, you can consider subscribing to my Patreon and we can arrange a Zoom call 😉
Hi you're doing great by posting this tutorial and I had one thing to say while projecting sketch turn off the projecting link option which helps to move the projected element
10:32 It doesn't split when I changed the sketch.. Shows "Compute failed" error Edit: I tried different positions of the vertex of the line, now it's working
I’m having trouble with the first step. It will not let me place the bodies in the new component, and neither can I make them all components and put them in.
Hey I am stuck on creating the cockpit detailing in your 5th episode of How to build an aircraft Tutorial 5. When I finish the sketch and select split bodies I then select the fuselage main body as the body to split and the sketch as the splitting tool and hit ok. The following error appears “no intersection between target and split tool”. This error doesn't occur with other shapes in the same area.
Hi Jean, that's an interesting problem! Which part of the cockpit is causing you problems? You could try a couple of things - 1) Try ticking/unticking "extend splitting tool" when splitting the bodies 2) Make sure you draw the sketch so that it overlaps the bodies you're trying to split. 3) Make sure you're splitting the bodies ONE BY ONE. It's a little more time consuming but definitely worth it to ensure everything works properly!
Hey! That probably means that your sketch has some pieces that are intersecting into each other. Try and look for any elements in the sketch that are too complicated, and try the split again :) Let me know if that works.
@@TEXDesignEngineering i read about hdri Images today and even have found one perfect website with big amount of such images, but there is no as good picture with sky and clouds as yours unfortunately(
@@selim9220 Oh I see! Yes, so the way Fusion works is that when you activate a component, everything outside the component will become transparent. Since we placed the blueprints in the main tree, it becomes more transparent when we are inside an activated component. If this a problem for you, you can either make the bodies in the main tree, and then move the bodies to the component later. Second option is to have the blueprints INSIDE each component, but that would require you to set the blueprints again and again, and that could make you lose accuracy. Hope that makes sense? Let me know if you need more clarification :)
This series is awesome. This one in particular will add A LOT more detail to my 3d printed Learjet 35. Thank You.
So happy to hear that Trent! I recently made a business jet myself and really love the look of those aircraft. Would love to see your completed work :)
Great Video, added to knowledge base for forms. Have been extruding , rotating, sweep and lofting for the longest.
It's amazing to learn a new tool and its workflow! Glad it helped :)

Thank you for your kind words. Really appreciate them. Would love to see your results if you're happy to share

Thanks a lot Metin, I'd love to see! Please share some pictures :)
So proud of you for making these tutorials and how they've helped so many people. It's all so wholesome and heart warming ❤❤❤
Thank you :)
I am absolutely loving this series, I am really looking forward to the end result and being able to model my own planes in fusion 360! Thank you!
Thanks a lot! So kind. Have a great day
Awesome man. I'm so excited, never made something like this before. You gave a lot of confidence.
So happy to hear that, you saying that gives me so much confidence
I'm very thankful for all the knowledge you've shared! Thanks!
Thanks a lot Ville :)

Thanks a lot! Exciting. Which model did you make?
@@TEXDesignEngineering i Made a Kitfox sti and its comming along pretty nice
Again a perfekt tutorial - thank you very much, Tex!
Thanks for the continued support Chris! Amazing to see you follow these tutorials as soon as they come out :)
@@TEXDesignEngineering yes i do! This are the best tutorials i've ever seen 😊 looking forward to install the engines 😉 Let's see how it works with my Dash 8 RC Plane project.

Your videos are damn awesome, I just wanted to ask you that how can we start designing components of other machines like cars, etc. by ourselves?

Lovely to know it's working now Bhanu!
I’m having trouble with the first step. It will not let me place the bodies in the new component, and neither can I make them all components and put them in.
I'm not sure why that happens sometimes. Next time, create a new component from the start and add the bodies to them :)
WHEN I TRY TO RECTANGULAR ARRAY OF THE RECTANGUALAR WINDIOW THEN PATTERN WINDOWS NOT SEE WHY?
Hey, does the pattern give you an error? Did you ensure you selected the right feature to create a pattern of?

14:57 i am getting this Error: The operation could not be completed.
Avoid self-intersecting inputs and try again.

yep, i tried again and found the probelm. it was single line of sketch hidden beneath the body @@TEXDesignEngineering
Can you mould it
Yes, you can create a negative of this model based on your specifications!
Can you say where have you taken photo with clouds to render?
Are you talking about the one from the A350 timelapse video?
@@TEXDesignEngineering yes sure
@@ofmoonsbirdsandmonsters Those are HDRI images. I don't remember where I got it from exactly, but HDRI Haven has some amazing ones to choose from!

Why do we convert canvas to a component
Hey Selim, I don't convert the canvas into a component? Not sure what you mean, can you clarify? :)
