You will also find other sources saying it is water proof, hygroscopic, will melt when the sun comes out, etc., etc. IME and others it has performed fine for modelling needs.

It is waterproof, fuel tanks and boat hulls have been printed with it.

Forgot about Tinkercad, seen some amazing RC airframes produced with it. 👍

To help you understand what a document is in Fusion and the limit this video may help https://youtu.be/qj82QzhTq4s?si=rASQ6PsPFo15vv9f&t=83 For clarity the 10 document limit is "10 editable" documents, documents you are not currently editing can be made read only. For the design of an RC airframe I have used 1 project and 2 documents 👍

I wouldn't worry about Fusion360s limitations in the free version, I don't think it has hindered any RC hobbyist and they can be worked around (ie the 10 document limit) easily. Another free package for hobbyists with some limitations is Solid Edge Community edition https://resources.sw.siemens.com/en-US/download-solid-edge-community-edition/ A alternative completely free open source 3D CAD application is FreeCAD https://www.freecad.org/ One common thing with all of the above being so popular is they all have a lot of tutorials and help available on the web. Having tried all three IMO no CAD package is better than the other as they all produce the same output, an STL file for your slicer. You'll need to try them and find what works best for you.👍

Yes I did the RCC before my A and as a result the questions I had for my A were only flying site specific.

I passed my A 2 years ago and received a Flyer ID last December without any further tests.

Those systems (for compliance and security reasons) are disconnected from public facing networks hence managing updates is a manual process and regarding old versions of Windows they're put under an ESU (Extended Support Update) license with Microsoft which according to the age of the OS increases in cost per device. Believe it or not Windows 95 is still in use in some places. Unless you have a PC manufactured before approx. 2016/17 which does not have a TPM2 chip fitted or an old application/driver which is not Windows 11 compatible then not upgrading to Windows 11 doesn't make sense as it is over 4 years old now and is very stable.
-
For clarification there are two end dates, a date whereby only security updates continue to be provided and an end of life date, October is the latter for Windows 10.
-
That article is over 3 years old, a lot has changed since then. From the 14th of October this year there will be no more updates (including security updates) for consumers running Windows 10. Only business users can extend beyond this date at a cost. There has been long enough to iron out bugs in Windows 11 so if you have compatable hardware upgrading is a no brainer.
-
Windows 10 goes end of life October so unless your computer is kept permanently offline you're just delaying the inevitable upgrade to Windows 11.

Heavy, peanut scale models have a wingspan of 330cm and the successful rc conversions documented are in the region of 20g.

For clarity there is no PayPal Buyer or Seller protection for payments deemed "personal" which is using "Friends and Family." Source https://www.paypal.com/uk/cshelp/article/whats-the-difference-between-friends-and-family-or-goods-and-services-payments-help277

Inside F5J Electric Glider Wing Servo Options

How did you find the build? I've read the English manual and it seems to be for a builder with a few models behind them. -
Old DX6i could be DSM2 and the AR6210 is DSMX. Can you post a photo of the DX6i?
