as of now its in maya , and basically i've been exporting to .jpg , but i just setup for .dxf exports, i read that all history is deleted on this export, but no edits should be nessecary. Maybe scaling(locked aspect ratio) might need adjustments after import to get to 31inch WS.

and thanks guys for replying, for weeks now ive been searching out places with little luck.

can you post some pics on here with your plane? My browser here at work won't let me get onto rcgroups. (IT blocks it)
Thanks

yeh , i've noticed that scott has some sort of magnetic thing happenin with him, he gets near a plane and just has to hit it lol. I wait for his battery to die then catch him in cool down.

I hand cut 2 of these out to figure out time, expense, etc. Not to bad till i started paintin. need more equipment. Better jigs

yeh, right after i get more video and not busy organizing and makin build guide i will be gettin back to everyone thats offered some assistance(actually makin something into (hopefully) a kit, has a lot of things that go into it you dont really think about). thanks

New around here (first post). I have a laser cutter and do foam. DXF or coreldraw with no offset is good for me. Located in Oakland, TN - right outside of Memphis.

Here's what I normaly cut.. www.cascabots.com but foam is fairly easy as well. Fanfold dosen't cut the greatest, but depron is good.
