CQ-10 SnowGoose 1:48 UAV Cargo Delivery
Yorumlar
Really nice and unsual topic! (I have soft spot for paper models... 😉 Perhaps I will assemble one from my ever-growing stash soon...)
You went all the way! Interesting subject and very precise execution. Like it.
Thanks guys. It was a fun rabbit hole to run down and making contact with the President of MMIST and a couple docents from the museums that acquired exhibits was a great research experience.
Album info
I present my construction of the CQ-10 SnowGoose. This is an unmanned areal vehicle built by MMIST of Canada for the United States military and struck me as a very interesting concept and extension of MMIST's autonomous parafoil delivery system. Though only 15 units were delivered, they saw active service in Middle East
theaters in the 2000s where they were used in a variety of roles.
Since this is a small unit with a limited production and use, I did not have hope that it would be available as a commercial kit. And so I endeavored to gather as many resources as I could and designed a scale model kit in paper card stock. I published my kit as a free download on the Papermodelers.com website and distributed copies to MMIST and the two museums which supported my research and construction. I hope you enjoy the build log and finished pictures.
