FYCYC - 737MAX-COCKPIT DIGITAL DIMENSION

FYCYC - 737MAX-COCKPIT DIGITAL DIMENSION

I gave this 3 stars, would have been less had it not been for their statement "We cannot guarantee every dimension is that accurate"... so I had a suspicion I would be disappointed, but bought anyway, so that was my fault. I'm writing this in hopes of helping you decide if this file is right for you. First, the good: This is a very detailed drawing that accurately depicts the basic shapes/dimensions of a 737 MAX cockpit. If you aren't concerned about exact accuracy, this file could be very useful to you. Now, the bad: If you happen to be using Fusion 360, this file is nearly unusable because of poor optimization (are 17,000+ points really needed for the throttle quadrant alone?). All those points and details would be okay if the dimensions were correct, or at least in correct proportion. When you resize the drawing based on a known distance (say, by using dzus spacing or the size of a Korry switch), other dimensions that you would expect to be correct are not. So, if you're looking for a very accurate drawing that you can build to actual specs (example, you want to use OEM parts), this drawing is not for you. By the time you 'fix' it, you could have researched dimensions and made a more accurate drawing yourself. I hope this helps for any who are deciding to purchase - it will be a very good buy for some, a very bad decision for others. Unfortunately, the latter applies to me.
