Why you plan to use CF on chassis?
If you race your truggy onroad its OK, offroad you will wear it too fast. I made chassis once for LSP front and rear was made from 3mm Aluminium and front kickup bent too. I had 4mm CF and it lasted about 3 races, had couple bad landings. Mountholes for al pieces was wrecked, and also noticed many cracks. I didnt liked a chassis bent too. You need to use double deck configuration. Weight saving is 130grams not worth imho that was with my Al chassis
You dont need heat Al for front kick up, just fix piece to wrench clamp, use piece of wood and hammer, thats all.
And yes front kick up affect on handling and much
If you race and bash stick to Al.
Speedrund, free runs CF is OK
