Trying the learn about composites currently as I am a complete newbie to composites. Have watched most of the easycomposites videos very informative and made me feel like I could do this. Sorry for hijacking your thread, I will get a thread going of my current and planned Dax Rush CF projects, Roof, Doors etc. Thanks Davro David Stevens YouTube: Comment \| Rate \| Subscribe Instagram Composite Projects Body Package for Dax Rush RC Car Touring Body 1/10 Scale
