Dear Greg, thank you so much, I followed your guidance and Phoenix App installed perfectly. Your instructions are quite easy to follow. After exploring the App. and understanding how to output for the step motors, I will start designing my hot-wire machine. Again thank you !
Dear Greg, many people I think can create the mechanical part but the programming and using phyton is challenging. Could you make a video to show which programs to download and install ? It will be usefull to understand how to achieve to that Phoenix app on the PC ? I think this Video will be more heplfull if I have the Phoenix app from 0:29 sec you show. Thank you I am looking fw to your reply.
@@orionone2637 hello. On which operating system you would like to install the python program. Right I only tested it in Windows and just upgraded the software. I will try to give some install guidelines soon. Thanks for your interest
@@orionone2637 I uploaded the latest V1.1.0 of the code. You can find here: github.com/gregpinaud/PHOENIX/wiki a detailed installation procedure. Good luck. I would appreciate any feed back.
@@gregpi1817 Thank you very much for your effort, I really apprecite. I have looked into it, seems strait forward.. Once I try it install and use it, I will feedback. Thank you so much..
Greg would you do a tutorial on how to load your program? I’ve tried thonny raspian etc with no luck. Does this program require you to have the same number of dat points on each side?
Hello Toby. The best way and easy way to run the program is to install python on your computer with the Anaconda libraries. It contains all you need and even more to run Phoenix. You can have different airfoils and numbers of point in each panel. Once you have install python on your machine just drop me a mail and I will guide you. It s very straightforward. You can also start with the default model.
@@gregpi1817 Hello Greg, Could you make a vid for the rest of us too? I have got no idea how to use github (or python) or can you link us to a guide that'll tell us as much as we need to know to get this program up and running?
Hi. If you are speaking of airfoil file there are many profile database available on the net. One example here: m-selig.ae.illinois.edu/ads/coord_database.html
Hello, I have been cutting wings with hot wire CNC for a long time using this site diyrcwings, but the site has recently closed, your program is almost the same and I need it very much, an easy and useful program. But my python knowledge is very limited, how can I run the program?

@@orionone2637 happy to hear that it can be useful. Eager to see your machine. Keep me abreast.
Hi, Greg very impressive you have developed a very good g-code generator. I will give it a try, Thanks
Thanks Keith! Message sent

Nice work keep going for fuselage please...
Thanks. Fuselage is an other story ..do u have specific needs?
@@gregpi1817 just general I cut currently with templates from plywood but I build hotwire 4 Axis wing software available only fuselage is missing.

@@Tsnafu hello. Yes I will do this tuto. I will assume that you are running Windows on your pc then.
Can you load .cor files? I have over 3k of them
Yes as far it s an asciii file with x and y in column.
Hii, how to generate .dat file from some other 3d or 2d file

You first have to install anaconda. The software will take care of installing all the usuefull package for running phoenix
And then open spyder development framework. Load the file Phoenix.py And launch python interpréter by vlicking on the right arrow
The phenolic il gui should popup
Thank you for reply , i will try it
