Beams

The beams are made in a mold with a top added after all the interior part are done. The process are foam inside, covered with layers of uni and 45/45 carbon ( I choosed carbon since I want my beams to be as strong and stiff as possible. Next bulkheads and webs are added. Now I am waiting for the last fitting to be finished so I can start fitting the struts. More on this later.

Mold with foam

Topplate with Uni and 45/45 carbon and a 0/90 on top.


This messy picture are 2 of 8 coverplates for the Upper folding strut bolts.

The plate in a wise for a closer look. They will be cut smaller later.
