    Default Uber Carbon Fiber build

    Hello I just wanted to share some photos of my first scratch build, it is going to be an all carbon fiber and cnc build that is going to be a 5B. I need to first think my friend Dave screen name racerx71 owner of Austintown Hobby in Austintown Ohio, he is doing most of the work for me as I am learning how to build as we go. At this point I am pretty close to a rolling chasis with the exceptions of a few parts, so I will post some pictures to see what you think. Here are the parts that I have so far.
