I built a mount for the SWB rudder servo tray out of scrap carbon balsa sandwich. It's just tacked together with CA right now since I am out of Hysol. I don't know exactly where it's going to sit in the fuselage yet.

This may be a stupid question but I am curious. Are you going to contour it to be bottom? Look's great by the way!

Pretty much the only mount of any type included with this Krill was a fuel tank tray. Composite ARF airplanes are a little more compete.
Looking at the carbon sandwich is it balsa in between the two layers of carbon. Do you prefer building with carbon instead of light ply or do just like it for the looks. Must say it does looks nice. Where do get it and is it expensive. One I have found working with carbon it takes the edge of everything in a hurry. Cutting a solid piece of carbon plate 1/8 thick 18 inches long and the bandsaw blade was done for.

It's stronger, light, and similar to what's in the rest of the airplane. The stuff I have came from Carf.
