Building a new woodie RES and this time I want to reinforce the top and bottom spars with carbon fiber. I've been looking over the CST and Aerospace Composite Products web sites ending up with more questions than answers. I know I should use unidirectional carbon fiber, but what's easier to use: tapes or tow? What thicknesses are recommended? I don't have a vacuum bagging system, so I'll have to use old fashion phone books to weight the stuff while the epoxy dries. I did find an informational article by Bob Vixie which helped out a lot, but he didn't talk about thicknesses. Anyway, what does everybody recommend out there.
