hi !
as i m not an aero engineer, i cant reach R&D facilities.
composites are quite hard to master..;
i need some info and overall experiences in HOMEBUILT composites tries..
if i had a R&D labo, it would not be a problem from theory to reality.
but homebuilders have to deal with the techniques they can afford.
my questions are about :
- epoxyde resins (criteria of choice), aircraftspruce have a good choice, has some one used some of them ?
- unidirectionnal fibers : glass or kevlar (i drop carbon) has someone tried to use them, any difficulties?
- creating positive and negative molds, materials used, treatment to do, an acceptable cost/quality ratio filling material ?
- homemade cooking techniques .... use of vaccum pumps ? hot water tubes ?
- software : has someone heard about simulation software for composites?
thanks to all
