Re: Making a carbon fiber chassis the beginner way

Maybe I'm just being ignorant but I would have thought being in the film industry you would have access to people who have professional knowledge and/or equipment in molds/models. I do know the scientist who make the cherries and Cherry Garcia soft, as opposed to frozen solid. It's not relevant in ...

Re: Making a carbon fiber chassis the beginner way

Are you using a vacuum chamber after mixing the gel ? I don't know much about resins but one thing I've seen a lot on YouTube is they all vacuum the resin after mixing to remove bubbles . I'm loving watching you learn this process , good luck . Not all resin require vacuum degassing. I had not deve...

Re: RC10 with RC10gt gearbox?

I've always wanted to throw a brushless on it. I've read a bunch of posts on here about toughening up the 6gear, but I'm still reluctant to pu...
