RC Scale USS YORKTOWN CV-5
Description
Another EXCELLENT stl file from TheFoxInTheBox that I need to add to my large RC project pile in addition to the battleships I have in My Designs. This is scaled huge, as in 60 inches in length. I wanted a WWII carrier since I would love to fill the deck with Wildcats, Dauntless and Devastators. The first files are the 3mf files for the hollowed hull and deck. I will be adding to the files the separated files suitable for my Ender 3 and Elegoo Saturn. Note that I have kept the hangar decks opened up so you can place some aircraft down below. Future files will also include guns, aircraft and such. Updates: 4/1/22: Added files for aircraft - F4 Wildcat; SBD Dauntless; TBD Devastator. The Wildcat and Devastator have a flat and folded wing option. Credit to original models for these planes are included on the separate plane Thingiverse pages. Also, added stl file for separated hull. 4/6/22: Replaced top deck with a more detailed version with windows, elevator indentations, hatches, AA guns, ladders, life rafts, portholes, etc. Also added searchlight files that you can insert LED lights, if desired. Still more work to do on gunwales, etc. 4/7/22: Detailed the hull sections and opened up shafts. Final detailed deck and hull stl and 3mf files loaded as well as a version about 18" long with all pieces together and some aircraft on deck and in the hangar. Also, it appears the aircraft need to be scaled down to about 90-92% of their current size to be closer to scale. I think I am done!! 4/8/22: Uploaded revised Dauntless file to move bomb forward for better CG position.
