Just wondering can you sand out scratches on graphite chassis? What grit and type of sand paper and can you polish it up again to look like new?

Would this kind of epoxy repair pop loose under running condition??

I worry that strength would be a problem.... :roll:

strength seems to be good. I was concerned about the plug of jb weld pushing right through the flat walls of the cavity so I...

Thanks in advance

I just picked up three used RC10s last night. After inspecting them more closely today, it would seem that each car has a bent (curved sort of like a banana) chassis. Has anyone ever tried straightening the aluminum tubs before? I already pulled the...

Last post

on thing you can do is to lay the chassis belly up, with two flat supports at the front and back, so the middle of the chassis is off the ground. say 1/8 or something, then apply weight so it bends beyond flat, then let it spring back. experiment...

A while ago I bought a cut down and cracked graphite chassis off ebay.

I though this was a good change to learn how to do proper carbon fiber repair since I have should have everything needed to do it....

If the stealth holes are drilled and countersunk properly, there's no way to know what it started as. Especially if they countersunk the motor guard holes too.

Thanks. So the chassis blanks are the same and only the pattern that changed.
