Every component on your racecar is designed for a specific purpose and Carbon Fiber panels are no exception.
Episode 3 of our Composite Series takes a deep dive into the world of Carbon Fiber panels and explores the characteristics that define each type of panel.
From distinguishing between wet layups and vacuum bagged products to various thicknesses, weave patterns, installation tips and so much more, you will become well versed on composite panels and where to use them after watching this video.

20 years ago this stuff was like voodoo that had to be imported from some other planet. Kinda cool to see its pretty much readily available for all types of applications. Good stuff.

Mr Mcamis thanks for the knowledge always helpful watch all of them you put out but I'm trying to get a 25.2 chassis for my ff thought about doing it myself but I don't know how to get it certified

I'm assuming the panels are laid up with the weave in multiple directions since you said the grain direction is only cosmetic? It will defiantly be stronger in one direction if its not. Great videos!

@Timmcamis 5 лет назад

The "only cosmetic" mention was in reference to how the panels are installed not how they are produced. Meaning, when they are installed, it typically looks nicer if two panels side by side have grain running the same direction. There are a few photo references in the video near this. As far as how they are made, the grain would be ran in each layer according to whatever creates the strongest layup.

@serdaraytemiz 5 лет назад

What I understood from the "only cosmetic" is that the panels are not structural panels so it really has no affect on the flex of the car. In RC racing we pay extra attention to direction of weave and thickness for chassis flex, but those cars are 1350grs. this is probably 1300KGs. So accessory plates should not have any major affect on a car this size. @@Timmcamis

If there is light scratching on the outside can it be buffed like clear coat?

@Timmcamis 5 лет назад

It's possible, but you don't want to if it is much more than a very light scratch. Especially if it is a vacuum bagged part as the resin will much much thinner.

I cant find any info about, maybe you can help me out. I am makeing my first carbon fibre project. It is a car bonnet. I am planning to make exact copy of inner frame. Bonnet is originally made 0,7mm sheet metal(both inner and outer part) I am planing to use 200g 2by2 twill(0,2-0,25mm as for one layer thikness) how much layers I have to use, to get same flex as steel sheet metal has? I think 45degrees of two layers should be enought, but I am not shure. Every video in youtube only cuts and cracks and pulls cf test materials. They sometimes provide numerical data, but that is not enought for me. I just want minimum weight bonnet with steel bonnet reference without bendind into engine bay at hight speeds.

Hey, I'm looking at building a drag car around a 8.1l vortec with twin 76 or 80s feeding a 200m marine turbo. how would i go about building a chassis to support that much insanity?
