I'm working on a project that I believe needs to reinforce (protect) the NC to withstand a Mach 1-1.5 flight. Due to the rules involved I must use the plastic NC that came with the Mega Der Red Max kit. My initial thought was to apply a Carbon Fiber wrap over the NC.
Although I've applied CF to cylindrical objects, I'm having difficulty trying to come up with a template that I can use to apply the sheet CF to a parabolic cone and have it lay flat.
I tried looking for a cutout template for that shape, or application techniques, but have struck out. So I thought I'd see what expertise (or suggestions) might come from TRF members...
