I thought the polycarbonate sheets were kinda expensive compared to depron or other materials. What made you use them ? Other than being unbreakable. Title: Re: Light roofing sheet based F14 nish jet. Post by: anwar on August 20, 2009, 05:07:35 PM That is so cool. Post some videos.
Did you just use a hacksaw to cut everything ? Or is there any other trick to making fine cuts on this material ? Title: Re: Light roofing sheet based F14 nish jet. Post by: Ashta on August 20, 2009, 05:17:39 PM Nice one! Transparent models! What about adding some LEDs and making a night flyer ? yes they are bit expensive but very durable/ washable etc and most important very sturdy and does not need any reinforcement.

Other than being unbreakable. another point is that all the electronics are cable tied to the board and therefore flexible. Title: Re: Light roofing sheet based F14 nish jet.
