right now i just got one little tipp for you ... hold down "shift" and middle mouse button ... so you can rotate around and object with your mouse.. instead of the viewcube ;) and for a tutorial... its very good ... you don't used shortcuts ... what is good for beginners ^^ ... just one thing ... i don't know the default top tools in Fusion ... but it looks like you added some you use the most ... maybe tell them in your next video how to do it ;)
Haha, you get a shout-out on the next video for the shift and middle mouse, that's convenient - ya' learn something everyday. I'll look into the toolbar as well, because I haven't changed anything up there. Maybe defaults have changed over time, and I've had Fusion installed for around a year and a half now, and I don't recall changing any of the default toolbar stuff. I'd totally dig getting Chamfer up there next to Fillet.
@@STRIKINGFPV yeah .. i think i installed fusion on my new pc more then a year ago .. and right after that i changed the toolbar to my likening ^^ for the rest i use shortcuts ... i think thats the most important "tool" you can use... makes working on an objects or sketches so much faster ... but you have to get into it ;)
@@samrichard4156 I'm pretty quick in Sketchup thanks to shortcuts, same in Photoshop and Premiere Pro, but honestly there's still so much to learn in Fusion so I don't mind taking things slowly for now. And like you mentioned earlier, if I do more tutorials from a beginner's perspective it's probably appropriate that I don't use shortcuts at first, then maybe add more shortcuts to the repertoire as I make more videos.
Thanks for this, just followed along and built the duct, I have no need for it but learning fusion 360 for other drone parts, first came across you on Goran's video's in Nan, I also live in Thailand and do a lot of touring on my Bikes.
Oh cool, didn't think I'd come across more FPV enthusiasts from the motorcycle touring crew, haha. Glad the video was helpful - I've got more tutorial style videos currently sitting in my head, so maybe there'll be something else for you in the coming months, otherwise it's amazing the amount of resources the internet at large now has on offer. Stay flying and perhaps our paths will cross on the road at some point 😉
I've just spent a whole day following this tutorial and designing my own slimmed ducts for my geprc cinego. Thank you so much for it, I've learned a lot! It's my first time using fusion so it was a steep learning curve but I think I made it through! Loved it!
Great to hear, and your first time too! I find it's always best to jump straight into building what you want - this was how I learned computer programming back in the day. A million books about writing a "hello world" program, but nothing beats trying to build an actual program/project since you'll remember each step taken much better. Glad I could provide one of your guiding resources 😁
Hi, so sorry for the late reply, been so busy with my day job recently. I have used Inventor a few times in the past, and I think the instructions should work, but certain functions might be in different places, I'm not 100% sure. Best way to learn is to just dive in like I did and work things out. Google when you hit a wall and remember the techniques you learn along the way. Good luck!
Kool explanation I always thought ducted fans were the way to go when I was building drones back in 2013 before 3D printers were easy to get but doubt it would be practical now on props that are 17 inch but who knows with carbon fibre printers now Hmm
17" props, you're flying a helicopter dude, haha But yeah, I actually have PETG-Carbon Fibre filament which, in theory, should produce pretty decent results and be pretty strong - have yet to try it, but maybe I'll pump out my slammed duct design in the stuff to see how it is.
@@STRIKINGFPV Not a helicopter but a Hexacopter with almost a 1 metre wingspan and super stable in almost any wind but it should be at 6kilos but it might be time to do a rebuild and lighten it up a bit soon
@@lmapicas3279 Haha, at that size I'm not sure ducts will do much, they'll certainly have to be beefy to do the job properly - I don't think ducts as a decorative feature is really a thing, lol.
For those just watching this, there's a follow-up video which demonstrates how to make a slammed duct:

3mf is a file format that cura and the slicer you use can read
You looks like a nice person, thank you for this content!

Great job bro.🤩🤩
Thanks ✌️
I just came across your channel. i love it!!
Ah cheers
thank you for this !
Any time!

Excellent man, thank you for sharing your skills 👍🙏
No worries bro 😉
awsome.
No I'm not, but I mostly grew up in Thailand and lived in Phuket for about 20 years now. I can speak some Thai too, but writing is very hard 😅
احسنت🇰🇼
good video man , thanks , I can follow those steps in Autodesk Inventor?
