Black G10 FR4 Conductive Question

[AlexBruccoleri]

Hi All, I recently purchased some G10 sheet cut into strips for ebay sleds. It is black in color and I am curious if anyone knows if the black color is conductive or blocks rf for GPS transmitters? I think it is fine, but if anyone knows of any issues of black vs natural G10, please chime in. I am worried about carbon die.

Thanks!

In my experience it it not conductive, nor does it materially affect RF transmission Or reception.

I agree. There are many black coloured composite nosecones on rockets with RF modules inside. I have a few and haven’t had any issues.
