I have bem passing some time in Porto Pt, due de covid pandemic I have decide to improve my knowledge in modeling and drawing.
Ass an engineer I know that every device project starts with a simple draw as a first look, as a first idea. Then that draw become more tecnic and then that simple draw become a 3D model and you can see exaclty how that device will look like. Every single project, and every single device that you have in your house was designed by an enginner and an project dsigner.
There are some thing that we have to consider before start to draw a project:
First, we have to think about whether this device is physically possible to build.
Second, we have to design this device as a form of assembly and a way to easily replace parts. This is what we call maintainability.
Third, we need to think about the material that we can use in that project, for each piece its proper material. Using the right material is the most important part of engineering, as it will ensure that each component works perfectly for each purpose and will help make the project a safe device and will also allow engineers to estimate the best costs for that project.
This shows us that for each project there must be several engineers behind. There must be a materials engineer, a structural engineer, a production engineer, among others.
Thinking about it I decided to show a drawing project made in the software Solid Works and Invento. These two softwares are very good tools for that purpose. We can see exactly what this project will look like and we can choose each material and appear and many more tools are available for use.
The photos below show a real photo of an RC aircraft engine and my design project in Solidworks and Autodesk Inventor.

These softwares are a mandatory tool for any company that works with innovation and product development. That's why I spend a lot of my time trying to learn how to use them.
I am letting in attachment for you enjoy a PDF file with all dimensions of each component. Soon I would like to record some videos with some tutorials teaching how to use these software. After all, the best way to learn and improve is teaching and sharing your knowledge.
