I dont recognize that file format.  I only have a solidworks viewer here
and it doesn't open it.  What do you use to view it.  It does not seem
to be a native solidworks file.

What are you using?

Thanks,
John




Hi Paul,

I just read you article on cooling the rotary.  I was particulary interested and will
do more research on the NACA issue.  I know of one canard (John Slades) which seems
to be working with a NACA.

Anyway, I would like to start modeling my installation.  I will be using SolidWorks.
   Do you have dimensions of the engine that you could provide or a source for them so
that I can start putting it together.  I dont currently have an engine so I cant take
direct measurements.  I'm planning on using the Renesis engine.


Thanks alot,
John

Do you want some 3D in solid works file format?

Paul Lamar

I would like that as well Paul. I too would like to start modeling an installation. Solidworks would be fine for me.

Try this one.

It is an iges file. You need to import it into Solid Works before you
can save it as a Solid Works file format. I use rhino which is much much
easier to learn and cheaper than Solid Works. If you sign up for a course
you can get a student discount. In that case it is about $300.

Here is another iges you can try.
