Gong V3 Fuselage Cad file

Does anybody have a cad file or drawings of the wing attachment part for Gong V3 fuselage?

Trying to make a DIY wing, planning on going with GONG mast and fuselage, but I am saving up to buy. Therefor it would be really nice to be able to print a fuselage to use as a mandrel.

I wanted to measure all the fuselage profiles I have from Gong (v1, v2, and v3) to create 3D-printed molds and build some carbon fuselages. I checked whether the geometry, dimensions, and curves of the profiles followed any standard measurements, but since none of the dimensions seemed logical, I decided to scan them instead.

The final results are here. These are approximate shapes obtained by scanning the profiles with a home scanner.

and here the scans

Hi! thank you very much! unfortunately the link is not working.

Thank you @silversurfer69

Good job @silversurfer69

Here is link to pretty accurate (IMHO) step model of Gong V3 fuselage:

It was constructed from 3D scanned data. Tested with 3D printed transitions from thin to thick part of the body.
