Unable to twist along sweep

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi guys,

I'm trying to create an airfoil with washout (where the wing slowly twists towards the wingtip) using the sweep tool. All the tutorials I've seen show a "twist" box to enter a twisting degree within the feature edit box. Mine does not. Perhaps I have my sweep set up wrong?

I've attached a screenshot below of my screen and what I want it to look like, would appreciate any help.

Thanks, Shihao

Sweep with Twist is for single path, 

 

Sweep with Guide rail, you need to put the taper and washout angles in the guide rail.

 

Might help....

You've got too many points on the profile for the wing for that curvature to look OK.
