I have a radio controlled glider which has a fibre glass fuselage, it has a section which is prone to cracking.
I am considering strengthening of this area prior to assembly.
The area is approx 200mm long x 35mm in diameter, I am thinking of putting a carbon sock over the full length of the fuselage which is just short of 1m in length and varies in dia from 10mm to 35mm.
Would a carbon sock fit this variation in diameter and adhere to fibre glass. 
Many thanks.
