​
Summary

Create a fuselage from Top, Side, and Bottom rails using Conic Section Sweeps, with tunable rho values and tip/rear close blend radii.

​
Package Details

Create a fuselage from rails using Conic Section Sweeps. Top and Bottom tangent is set to +Y, Side tangent is set to +/- Z. All rails should have a starting point in the X=0 plane. Top and Bottom rails should be planar in XZ with the nose pointed in the -X direction. Side rail can be non-planar, but should be kept in +Y. If end points of rails do not line up in X, the minimum X value will be used to close the fuselage.
