The only 'free' modeller out there that seems to work for SDOE is called Anim8or. Rendsberger used it to build the Ju52, so it definitely works!

I use AC3D which isn't free, but it is fairly cheap ( £25 ) and with the plugins available, it handles lods for import and export into OPS. It is easy to use, and a very competent tool!

3D Studio Max is a complex, high end professional modelling tool, which retails for around £3000.....and is very popular with the software pirates.

I would recommend downloading Anim8or, and seeing how you get on. If the bug bites, and you really want to get stuck into this, AC3D is probably the best tool for the job! ( well, I like it! )

If you want to see what it can do, check out the WW1 pack....I built the Ca33, Taube, Bleriot, Ilya and the S11 with it
