Piaggio "Avanti" P180 precision scale model
For the complete article on this new version of the "Avanti II", click here.
3D tools have improved quite a bit since I did the original Avanti in "Carrara Studio", and I thought that with modo in hand, this was a good opportunity to take this model "over the top". I was very lucky to have obtained some great documentation from some engineers at Piaggio, several years ago, and had everything I needed to make this a super-accurate one. Enjoy!
Details
The P180 has three sets of flaps... One set on the canard, (foreplane) and two different sets on each wing. (single-slotted flaps inboard and Fowler flaps outboard) I've got them all in their "down" position for these renders, so you can see the configuration.
This model has all the window and door openings, moveable doors and control surfaces, (including trim tabs) scale landing gear and doors, and a complete interior.
