The L-1011 Build Project
Photos & 3D Model Renderings
Welcome to the RC CAD2Vr project renderings and Image gallery. The current project is a scaled model of the L-1011, the iconic TriStar Airliner. As I document the entire process from design to build, I will be adding images here. If you are interested in creating your own radio controlled model, or would like to create 3D models, check out my complete 3D modeling tutorial series using Fusion 360
3D Printable Nose Landing Gear - Version 4
After months of design iterations and testing, the RC L-1011’s nose gear assembly for airframe #1 is ready.

1st 3D Printed Airplane Landing Gear Prototype
3D printing the model landing gear to assemble a working prototype has been a valuable learning experience. Check out the photos of the first prototype of L-1011 Build
Custom RC Airliner Landing Gear
As the design of the model L-1011 nears completion, figuring out the hardware and placement is part of the finishing details. See all of the renderings and some background on the Oleo Pneumatic Landing gear system design for this model.
