Fusion 360 is a much better modeling software than FreeCad however there still some things I get annoyed about with it but they aren’t as bad as the FreeCad problems. I don’t like how you copy and paste in Fusion, FreeCad was much easier to do it in, simply because you just use the “Command”, “C” and “V” keys in order to do it. Fusion360 I think did a much better job of making them look real as far as curvature and clarity goes though it was a little more difficult to figure out how to join pieces and make sure they’re even with each other (the aviators kinda show my struggle with it). Fusion 360 is easier to navigate and do the things you need to do seeing as all the buttons are clearly labeled and you aren’t just looking at shapes that could do something you want but in the end being the wrong button. I like working with Fusion360 better which I think the vast majority of people will. The aviators were 10x easier to create in Fusion because you could just use the spline tool to create the curves of the lenses and of the arms compared to FreeCad which was just meshing pieces together. The bowler hat was a little more difficult to get the lip on but it was still simple compared to FreeCAD. Overall both programs I think have their pros and cons but obviously Fusion360 is a little more advanced than FreeCAD, it also probably explains why one is free and the other you can buy or use a student login for.
