Chrome Protractor Extension

Post by cbaltrin »

This might be of interest to all you scratch builders and/or AMS/OCD modelers. I just found out Google Chrome browser has a 'protractor' extension you can use to get angles off of images on your screen. I wish it also showed distances, but as it is, it's still pretty cool. There is probably a ruler extension as well--just have not looked yet...
Naturally, you have to be confident in the drawings you are using.. this one shows the top wing dihedral of the P-47 as 4 degrees, which is correct based on my research and it has the guns as level to the ground -- UNLIKE the drawing on AirCorps Library site!
