I am a certified CAD tech, using ACAD latest release. If i had a machinist person with a CNC etc. we could prob make some money. I have often thought about making my own rc parts.

CNCing carbon is not easy. the first couple i did turned out great and then i had a bunch where the bit must have got dull or something cuz the carbon was tearing at all the cuts and delaminating on holes drilled. i have recently joined a machinists forum and have learned a lot about machining carbon. its almost like a trade secret really knowing how to machine carbon nicely. anyway, its a pain in the ass to work with but i think we will get a good system down soon.
i really have been doing this more as a hobby and so i havent been making very fast progress. slowly but surely things are coming along though.
