Wing profile linking points

Hi

 

I have prepared NACA profile from the generator. I have the set of points but I don't know how to connect them at once. Is there a possibility to use that without any macros?

 

Cheers

You can set Inventor to connect the points with a spline on import

or

use the Equation Curve directly.

Hi

 

Thanx JD, it was so simpleSmiley Very Happy

 

I have one more issue with it. 205 dimensions required...... How do you dimension such kind of construction

 

Cheers

I see you elected to use the non-parametric import of points rather than the built in parametric Equation Curve method.

 

Add a construction line to the sketch.

Turn the sketch in to a Sketch Block.

Add Coincident constraint to origin and a Horizontal constraint to construction line.

Now fully constrained (but not parametric).
