Anybody out there using Fusion 360?  Like the price, free to Hobbiest.    Also full 3d cam is included.

I've used it for a few design projects.  It seems to have all of the bells & whistles you could ever need.  The cloud rendering is kinda neet.  Although I haven't done any CAM projects.  I find it sometimes to be a little busy, too many menu items and parameters to enter for the simple features I need to create.  I guess that is typical of most Autodesk products.

I have also been using Onshape.  It's also free and a little more simple but I find it faster to work with.

Mike,
Just found this thread. Been using Fusion for about 3 yrs now.
I haven't gone back to use my Draftsite, or AutoCAD in over a year.
Once you go Solid Model, CAD seems clunky as hell.
If you put your material mass in for the motor, and Balsa, you can get a pretty good CG location from Fusion.
The CAM end of it fantastic as far as I'm concerned.
This little COX engine only took about an hour.

 A long time ago someone here in Stunt Hangar challenged me to do a 1/2A  KA-10.
Here is the 27" wing done in Fusion 360. It'll most likely come out to be a built up body.
Is anyone else in here working with Fusion!?

I have just finished a zero for speed limit combat.  I took Bill Bischoff's zero plans and put the parts in Fusion360   I did not do any assembly, just drew the parts.  I used compufoil for the wing ribs.    I ran the part made of 3/16 or less balsa in a laser  cutter and the thicker parts or hardwood on my new shapoko router.  Running the leading edge on the router was sweet.
