Winfoil is a an aeronautical computer aided design tool for designing, analysing and modifying model aircraft. It also provides the ability to print the design (wing ribs, fuselage sides, wing and tail plans) to any Windows supported printer and export design components to DXF files for import into other CAD programs such as AutoCAD.
It is typically used for Radio Control Gliders, Powered Aircraft (Scale,Sport and Pylon). Winfoil is Shareware. This enables the user to try the product before buying it. Registered users receive one free upgrade to the next major release. Minor updates are available free from this web site.
Winfoil has been developed using a state of the art RAD (Rapid Application Development) tool (Microsoft Visual Basic) and utilises the Microsoft Access Database engine to store design data and airfoil coordinate data. The data can be accessed using any number of available third party database query tools permitting the user to manipulate the data or use the data in other Windows applications. There are also no restrictive limits on the number of coordinates or designs as the limit is based on available disk space and computer resources.
