The carbon frame vehicle provides an option for light weight vehicle. Do consider the carbon frame will have more flex than the heavier aluminum frame vehicle. The estimated cost of this kit is from $40 to $60 (USD) depending on parts selected. The carbon frame vehicle has more options for width depending on which 3D printed parts are used. The are different size wheel diameters that can be used. Modifications are recommended to acheive the best preformance. The vehicle shown is a starting point.
Modifications may be required to match this year’s rules. Configuration shown below is for an elastic powered vehicle.
Note: Vehicle length will be determined by the length of the Carbon Fiber rods. This is determined by the team to match the current event’s rules and to provide the best preformance.
