This project has evolved some , the basic rundown is I'm modding two Omnibots , one a regular the other a larger 2000 model. I will have two ezb kits , rad base idea was thrown out because of so much noise but could go back on the table if the omnibot drivetrain is too weak to pull it.

i have used fiberglass alot too,its great stuff,heavy ,but hold great, by biggest project with fiberglasss was a small boat i made (1 man ) its pretty easy to form and make,only problem i see it gets very heavy
@robotmaker I have a complete & working RAD 2.0 I'm consider letting go of. None of the plastic has yellowed as far as I can tell. The only things I didn't get with it are the nerf darts & the remote's battery cover. You can email at nlkdavid AT pinnacle175 dot com
Hey Josh, maybe you could use carbon fiber instead of fiberglass. I see it pretty cheap on ebay, not much more than glass. Just a thought.
Links?
carbon fiber very light ,used for making quadcopters
Is it easy to work with? I have never used it before.
It's the same as fiberglass the matt with carbon fiber , apply resin and sponge off excess, the matr just weights 1/3 as much so it drops weight a little.
got it.... I have worked with fiber glass before the resin even more. (Made a paper hat for burning man) Never used the carbon fiber.
Is it as strong?
