Description
This is a follow up on my previous video, where I cover a work around for scaling airfoils in Solidworks without using the scale feature. Currently the scale feature is 'closed' off from being accessed via global variables.
In this video I cover a way to create an airfoil with scaled sections and a consistent thickness trailing edge. I have used the same set up as in the previous video, with some enhancements. I also cover a way to construct the wing tip, using 4 sided boundary surfaces. For a more in depth exploration behind the wing tip construction, please check out the 'nose cone' videos below.
