Junkers A50 – Aircraft of the Month

April 12, 2024 / Spencer Gould

Making a show appearance at Sun N Fun 2024 the Junkers A50 Heritage seems to be the hot potato with its Radial Engine.

https://en.junkers.de/junkers-a50-junior

The 1930’s Corrugated construction on everything is a unique stand out in a modern aircraft.

Junkers is likely most famous for the Ju-52 tri radial engine with the same type of construction as the A50

The Heritage is a radial Engine swap from the Rotax engine seen last year.

Rhino 3D App for 3D scanning

March 26, 2024March 26, 2024 / Spencer Gould

I recently upgraded to the iPhone 15 pro max with a particular interest in its Lidar 3D scanning capabilities. I tried a few apps but was not too impressed until I checked out my old Rhino 3d app that I’ve had for years. It updated with the new phone setup and what do you know it has 3d scanning capabilities.

Wanted to give it a good go and thought an Onion that wanted to live would make an excellent candidate.

This is the rendered version of the scan, very impressive. The shaded version is up top.

And here is the real thing

The file saves to the Rhino 3dm format direct in the phones files folder. From there the file can be sent direct to the pc for editing in the Rhino software with node points. This can greatly aid as a reference in new cad designs.
