I made a new fuselage for the easystar to get more room for payload. This proto is made in 2 layers of carbonfiber. The carbonfiber is very easy to work with, so if any one out there like to make some modifications just go for it.I got the carbonfiber from hereThe weight of the T-REX fuselage is about 140g = 4.93 ounces - still need to make the inner fuselage so the fuselage can be fasten to the body and still be removerable. Think the whole carbonfiber fuselage will be about 160g = 5.64 ounces.
Just a thought, could the carbon fibre cause a problem by shielding RF signals? I have seen other posts which suggest externally mounted antennae with CF fuselages.
Hi Chris
The servo wire will still be on the outside of the fuselage, my plan is to glue the servos on the inside of the inner fuselage not shown on the picture.
About selling this fuselage: I'll start experiment with a rubbermold, if there are any luck, I think there will be a chance for a production. What will people be willing to pay for a fuselage/dronekit like this?
The way I made this proto fuselage there are too much work so price will be too high. Hope with some experimenting i'll find a way to cut of worktime.

You should have the servos in the tail section. Then you have better CG.
And you get better respons.
