When you click on the 3D Model on the bottom there is a download tab. If you click on it several file options are displayed. When you click on one the 3D file is downloaded.

I would give it a try but I have no idea how to open them. In addition, I don't have enough highspeed volume left to DL such a big file.

I don't think you should download such a huge file. Here is a link to the unpacked archive.

I suggest you use XNViewMP, it is FREE. I've been using it for over 10 years. You press the PRT/SCN button on the picture you want, the open XNView, and import the "Clipboard", and you can crop and do whatever you want with the picture and save it in a variety of formats. This would give you the ability to make parts using Paint, right off of the pictures. This way you can rotate the model to the orthgonic view you wish and take a screen grab. This pic you could scale and use as the part for your capsule. :)

Looking at your conversation, I've concluded you should look at the 3D model tour online, not download it. Online the display has all the tools to the left to manipulate the views. Using those view controls can get you right in front on any panel you wish, then do what I suggested above, using XNViewMP, and crop the images to size, and using "Paint" or some othr photo editor to make the control panels to the scale you wish. You would end up with actual control panel pictures to work with which you could copy, or use as is, and stick the Switches on. I would not download such a file and try and use it, there's no need, when the link I provided sends you to the working 3D online manipulation of the 3D model. This is not what I have read in the preceding discussion. The link I provided is to the online 3D Model manipulation page, unless I've missed something here? :)

Thanks, I will try both ways. Only I didn't manage to control the camera in the 3D tour, maybe I need to change the browser.

Fantastic. I use Firefox s my Browser. The 3D manipulation has a feature to give you orthogonic view, numbered 1-40, I believe. You really happy to play with the the paning controls to get the hang of it. It took me 10 minutes to finally get it, but I'm not that bright of a bulb. :)

Yesterday I started to make lighting, started selecting LEDs, and found a discrepancy in the floodlight fixture. Ken presents them as a simple flat object, but in reality they have a different shape.

Link to document with phots and description.

Also in this document I found more interior lighting. But I have not yet found what they look like and where they are located exactly.
