Using SolidWorks CAD software to design a drone component, finding the software surprisingly intuitive for 3D modeling.
education
For Challenge 4, I worked on the Drone activity and the Pen activity. I'd seen CAD models online before, but didn't know that you could create them in Solidworks, so it was a pleasant surprise to see how my final products looked. The software was actually surprisingly intuitive, and I got the hang of it fairly quickly. A lot of basic Solidworks design seems just to be manipulating 2D shapes by rotating, extruding, or revolving them, which was something that makes a lot of sense but that I hadn't considered before. (don't have screenshots so I uploaded an image of my files) — drone design component.
