QD-15 VLJ Concept by QUANTUM AEROSPACE

[afridimo]

Thanks for the appreciation.

Since it was a conceptual design project therefore focus was on getting the calculations and the design feasible given the constraints. Only after a few days of playing around with V5 I came up wid this design. GSD skin was used for nose and tail. thickness in mid fus. No Kinematics. Only nav . had to design the engine cowling using actual engine dwgs we could hustle etc etc. Hope it ans ur qs.

For more chk out the lil site we had.

1 more question.

Were any of your parts borrowed such as engines or did your team fabricate those from the book on the design process?

[picsparks]

Very nice design.

Had a similar project freshman year that turned out looking like a largemouth bass.

quick question:

Is your aircraft exterior just a skin from GSD or did you add thickness to it?

Did you and your team animate it in DMU kinematics?

really nice job, congratulations!

but did you check pilot's visibility thoroughly? is there all right with it?

CATIA IS AMAZING

You about you update the "About this Video" section to say more about this design project ... how long it took, why you're doing it. How you designed the wings... whatever ... useful background information.

Even what modules of CATIA you used... etc.

Compare CATIA to other CAD packages.

[afridimo]

I was taught AutoCAD and CATIA mainly at Ryerson. There is no comparison between them obviously. CATIAV5 is the best CAD package , infact its much much more than a CAD package, and I donot say this only cuz I work for Dassault. I really love the user friendly interface and limitless functionality of CATIA. Its a complete Product Lifecycle Management system. Even though progs like PRO-E are also doing well.

Bravo with updating the "About This Video" section. Much more informative.

You're Canadian! Me too. I wish I could have learned CATIA, but I ended up learning PRO/Engineer instead, which is powerful enough, but not as elegant as CATIA.

CATIA was too expensive for me to buy a license for at the time.

When will Dassault make a 5th generation air superiority fighter? If there has been anything since the Rafale, I don't know about it.

very colorful video ... did you actually design this plane?

[afridimo]

thank you and Yes.

[sgtpepperaut]

amazing ...however i wished u would show how u designed the parts!

[afridimo]

well i am glad u like it

[derprinzvonmoenaco]

That's pretty amazing!!

Thanks for sharing...
