Hi all,
I am looking for someone who have experience in mold making for a carbon fibre wing. As you see in the picture below.
I know that you should make 2 negative molds that splits the wing airfoil at the cordline, (splits the wing in 2 sides)
but do you have to make the upper an lower side of the wing in 2 pieces? and after it glue it toghether? or is there a way to just make the wing in one part?
Any advice?
thanks
