Testing My Skills: Making a 2-Piece Carbon Fiber Canard! 🚗💨
In this video, I take on the challenge of making a 2-piece carbon fiber canard using a 3D-printed split mold. This is my first real attempt at this method, and as you’ll see, things didn’t go perfectly the first time! I’ll walk you through what went wrong, the adjustments I made, and how I finally got a successful result.
🔹 What you'll see in this video:
✅ My first attempt—and what failed
✅ How I redesigned and adjusted for success
✅ The final result using a 3D-printed split mold
Also, sorry for the flickering lights—my GoPro settings reset, and I need to tweak them again! Let me know in the comments if you have any questions or tips for future projects.
