Carbon/Kevlar shaft layup questions

Cosborne are you still around?

 

Just shot you an email.

 

Hey,

You said that there were glass SMC parts similar to this. Perhaps you know the thickness of these parts? If you build up a similar thickness in the earlier mentioned 0, +45, -45, 0 in carbon (and repeat this untill you get the required thickness), you'll probably have a conservative design which is a similar in weight (carbon weighs less than glass, but you'll probably have a higher fiber content) but will work.

Nevertheless, I would try to get the aluminium parts out as well. Engineering might be a good solution.

Cheers
