SZD-51-1 Junior

Post by akoscantwell » Fri Nov 05, 2021 5:04 pm

Would there be any takers for a Junior? I started modeling one, but im not that familiar with blender so it might take a while.
Also my club doesn't have one so fi someone could snap some pictures of the wheel area, and the back of the cockpit it would be appreaciated.

A bit of progress in the cockpit with really bad texturing.

Well I'm sorry, but that does not look like a Junior.

Compare this image.

Fuselage is the wrong shape.
Wings are too high.

Without having the model I cant tell what else.

I'm probably using an inaccurate reference image then, but I'm going to correct it

Side wireframe (looking at it now the reference is definitely off)

If I was doing this glider, I would approach the manufacturer for original drawings, or a CAD model.

In picture 2 on the inner top you can see a part of the rigging key stored which is common for several SZD glider types.

Cross my fingers for the project. Answering the initial question I would love to take Junior for a ride in C2. It is my basic single seater IRL, as I am at the beginning of my gliding story.
