The radio transmission signals will not pass through carbon fiber. The 'cockpit' area and nose of the fuselage is made of regular glass-fiber because that is where the radio-control receiver and other electronics will be located. The kevlar strips are laid in the stress areas that need reinforcement for strength in case of nose first impact, but overall this area of the fuselage is far less stressed than the boom/rudder and lifting surfaces of the wing where carbon is used.
professional Fuselage build ? No bolts in the molds, connecting with screw clamps like in stone age, not possible to push/close the mold due to the rising inmolded peaks. no white Gelcoat on the fuse, take out and fuse is ready. This is not state of the art in Mold and Fuselage building. Carbon looks good but not necessary. area fuse/rudder is immensly stressed and will break.
I think the wooden frame is a good idea on such a long mold, to stop it from warping. Makes bolts redundant. Metal frame is also an option. But I think you'd be being a bit too harsh. They probably know what they're doing.
The Gentleman in the blue shirts face just tells a story ! Awesome work !!!!
Very nice. Next year I will finish a 25% Nimbus 4 mould. Lot of work.
Quite a lot of work, I made a 25% ASW 22 about 40 years ago.
Esto es como asistir a un parto, qué maravilla!!
Lovely to see
Blowing pressurised air between the fuselage and the mould will help.
My dream workshop
Awesome!
nice job
wonderful job
exciting moment😊
Perfect 👌👏👏👏
Ten trup je pre aké rozpätie dá sa objednať.
That hull is for what span can be ordered.
Awesome! Please make a video from start to finish, did you do design in Fusion 360? Molds 3d prints glued together? Subscribed!
Super
awesome
Parabéns ótimo trabalho
2 and 1/3 kilo...good!
Where's your compressed air to help release?
Glass fibre cloth/graphite fibre cloth and kevlar cloth?

Please do video how to make fuselage released from mould
Another glider I'll never fit in
next time try some air
Why is the fuselage so heavy?

You have no idea what you are talking about... get stuffed.
There’s more than one way to make something. 😊

before you make critical editorializing comments... make sure you have explained that you have lots of experience with this process... or NOT !!
