Cessna 172 ADF Radio Panel – 3D CAD Design & STL Modeling

Designed and developed a Cessna 172 ADF (Automatic Direction Finder) Radio Panel completely from scratch, covering the entire process from initial 3D modeling to physical prototyping. The project involved creating a detailed CAD model with attention to the original aircraft cockpit layout, component positioning, proportions, and overall design accuracy. After completing the 3D design, I prepared the model for 3D printing and produced a physical prototype to evaluate its geometry, dimensions, and overall fit. **Project Scope & Deliverables:** - Complete 3D design and modeling from scratch. - Detailed mechanical CAD development using SolidWorks. - Aircraft cockpit instrument panel design and component layout. - STL export and preparation for 3D printing. - Physical 3D printed prototype production. - Initial physical evaluation of the designed model. **Software:** SolidWorks **Output Format:** STL **Manufacturing Method:** 3D Printing **Project Type:** Aviation / Flight Simulator Hardware / Mechanical Design
