Thanks everyone, I'll check out your suggestions. Now that BL Revo version 1 is complete, I'm starting on another design and was looking at a way to put the battery trays under the chassis to lower the CG and give me lots of room to lay out various parts. I want to make this one as light as possible, yet structurally strong. Since the batteries will be under the chassis, the bottom plate will probably be subjected to dings and scrapes. Nowing this, which would be a better choice for the under carriage - Al or CF? I would say Al, but CF is lighter...
