CARBON FIBER DISCUSSION

[Zoom Master]

The kevlar is there to help the hull hold together under impacts mostly. There's very little reason to use it in an rc plane. A good option to consider would be fiberglass however. It's cheaper than carbon fiber and should be plenty strong and light for your purposes.

I can easily use fiberglass but the thing is I just like how carbon looks in general.

Yeah I like the looks of it too!

Yeah, if you crash this going 300mph it doesn't matter what it's made of....It 's GOING to break! 🤣 🤣 🤣

True wither its made up of fiberglass, carbon or kevlar it will break.

And im currently am doing wind tunnel simulations for my rc airplanes to see how much drag there is.....

Wouldn't it be cool if you could get your plane to look like this?! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F48WM3LF/?tag=lstir-20

And how strong the design is....I want to see how much G's my plane draws when i put the GPS in it! (Mine will measure it I believe)

I can.........

 

[Houndpup Rc]

I can.........

You can?

 

[Zoom Master]

Im planning on painting my plane like this boat

 

[Zoom Master]

You can?

Yeah with a airbrush and some paint which I have lying around I could do that if I want to !

..........Not my cup of tea.......But if that's what you like......

No it's actually molded into the CF....

 

[Houndpup Rc]

I think Geprc or Iflight does that with their frames too.

Speaking of boats anyone reading this into boats ?

Well I can buy colored carbon fiber that looks like that or I can paint over it.......

Yeah!!! The one I take fishing! JK 🤣 🤣 🤣

Yeah but I dont really like those frames........

Why?

Trust me its gonna look good ill maybe show u a rough sketch on paper.....
