Model Air Design - model aircraft design software

NEW ! Model Air Design - Windows PC Software

Model Air Design is the new, quick and easy way to create airplane models. It's a modern software tool for model aircraft design.

Model Air Design is for every person, young or old, who has a desire to design and create airplane models but have found Computer Aided Design (CAD) software too difficult and time-consuming to learn.

We have developed a method for you to design computer models, in 3D format, without the complexity of 3D CAD software. It is so easy and intuitive to use that you will have no difficulty learning to create with it. You will be designing airplane models in a matter of minutes.

Model Air Design software develops CAD software skills.

This app is a nice introduction to CAD software concepts. It shows you some of the cool stuff you can do with CAD software to design a model airplane.

With Model Air Design you create a computer model aircraft from a group of airplane parts. Instead of drawing carefully every detail of the aircraft, you just choose from a selection of pre-drawn parts. Model Air Design will assemble and draw the aircraft from the parts you select. In addition, you will be able to modify and position the airplane parts in anyway that you like. For example, you can modify a wing in length, width or height, and you can position it higher, lower, forward or back.

Model aircraft design software made easy.

With Model Air Design you can be as creative as you want. Substiture parts from other airplanes. Move them around, make them bigger or smaller. You can even paint the aircraft with your favorite colors. Here are some examples of what you can do:

Visualization is the primary objective.

Model Air Design makes it possible to visualize your aircraft design ideas. Once you see what your airplane will look like, then you can start drawing plans, cutting wood, shaping foam or using fiberglass to build your model.

Model Air Design is not like a conventional CAD program.

This is a visual design tool. It is not like a typical CAD program in the sense that it does not provide measurements and it does not generate line drawings that would help in creating airplane model plans. However, the commercial version of this app, when completed, will export a model file that can be used by most CAD programs to produce line drawings and provide exact measurements to build a model aircraft. Model Air Design is a great tool for visualizing your design ideas.

Model Air Design News

Feb. 11, 2025

The next version of Model Air Design (free download) is not ready yet and it might take a while to be completed. Our Development Team is quite busy at this time on their own projects. Now, it's safe to assume that everyone following this project already has the current version. This is because of a sharp drop in the number of downloads recently. So, we substituted the current download with a popular older version (V1.8) of Model Air Design until the new app is completed.

Aircraft in Version 1.8

Sept 5, 2017

The new version (V1.8) has an important change. Model Air Design is not a Demo program anymore. It’s a Full version of the app, as it stands now, free to download. It contains minor fixes and updates that users following this project will notice. Watch for new features being added soon to this app.

When the commercial version is completed, it will be Model Air Design Pro . The Pro version of the app will be able to export a model file that can be used by most CAD programs to produce line drawings and provide exact measurements to build a model aircraft.

About the Author

    Welcome to Model Air Design. My name is William Busto, the author and lead developer. Our purpose is to create new, innovative software intended to help fellow aircraft modelers with their projects.
    Back in 1998, our first aviation software project was Model Airplane Color Design, a very successful model aircraft paint scheme program. Following that, we saw that much simpler Computer Aided Design (CAD) software for model aircraft was needed. In 2009, we started program development for Model Air Design. Our objective was to make visual design a different approach for designing and creating airplane models. This process took some time, but we are pleased with the result so far. However, we're not finished yet. We have some exciting new features that will be added soon. Watch for our new updated versions coming in the near future.

    I hope you will find this program useful and if you have any questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to send me an email.
