@emm0sh i just use catia, it's the best of the trad tools

[ben @benfrdl]

@retired_duck @luluvif it's an elective course at my university on composite materials

[ben @benfrdl]

@luluvif it's pretty detailed as well actually

[ben @benfrdl]

@luluvif we have f1 examples in our composites exercises as well🥳

@Yakunitatanaiko ich ess bestimmt ~5 Tage die Woche Brot

mit Käse, Lachs, Frischkäse, Hummus, etc gibts da zig Möglichkeiten für Abwechslung

alles hat gute Nährwerte / sind gute Proteinquellen und ist wirklich bezahlbar

[ben @benfrdl]

@zoodotdev time to put all those cnc machines to work

[ben @benfrdl]

@jordannoone that’s the kind of vertical integration i love to see

[Zoo @zoodotdev]

We built the software. Now we’re machining the parts.

Zoo’s manufacturing beta is open: custom CNC-machined aluminum parts, made in our own shop.

Have a part in mind? Submit it for consideration:

@margorskyi not so sure, i think some red arrows might help

[ben @benfrdl]

@i2cjak all achievements is crazy

got over 400h as well, but only like 90%

[ben @benfrdl]

@zoodotdev join us :)

[ben @benfrdl]

i’m participating in the @dlr_en drone challenge brunswick, where i’m gonna lead the hardware integration of the drone swarm we’ll develop

really excited to take part in a competition with actual flight tests in a realistic scenario

will keep you updated on our progress

[ben @benfrdl]

@bscholl i agree, both are way to comfy in their position and it's only a matter of time until china gets around the certification process and the aviation tech

glad that there are other companies still willing to innovate

[ben @benfrdl]

@JaguarRacing cleaan, i love it

[ben @benfrdl]

@Snugata gehaltsvorstellung ist schon ok

allerdings kommt man mit "nur" einem abgeschlossenen studium heute nicht mehr weit

Ben’s Build Log #19

For the propeller spinner, I started with a hand-drawn sketch to show the shape I had in mind.

I then gave it to Zookeeper to turn it into a 3D model and fit it onto the existing mounting structure.

@mrpulsef1 i think he’ll be "to old" for piastris seat

will probably go to one of their junior drivers to develop beside norris

[ben @benfrdl]

@VaibhavLab does smth like this exist for meche/aerospace?

[ben @benfrdl]

@yatharthmann it’s not really an explanation of the creation, but definitely not a wrong statement hahah

[ben @benfrdl]

i bet a lot of engineers would get this wrong

it's one of the most common misconceptions in engineering

[ben @benfrdl]

@FemboyDCS ok tough guy, then explain to me how lift is created

[ben @benfrdl]

@FemboyDCS true, even a flat plate can generate lift haha
