What Is Carbon Fiber

Carbon fiber is made of thin, strong crystalline filaments of carbon that is used to strengthen material. And can be made in different shape to match different purposes.

For example:

1. Bike frames

2. Aircraft wings

3. Car components (even RC cars)


Carbon Fiber vs Aluminum

Strength

It’s also important to compare the strength of two materials which have the same thickness. Aluminum has a strength of about 500 kilonewtons compared to carbon fiber which can have up to 1600 kilonewtons of strength. Provide a better durability than aluminum.

Weight

The weight of a material is particularly important when trying to make a rc car faster or easier to perform any kind of stunt. Replacing the aluminum in an object with carbon fiber can reduce its weight by nearly half.

Resistance

Parts made from Carbon Fibre are less prone to wear and tear. Carbon doesn’t suffer from fatigue, it won’t start to rot or degrade in poor conditions it’s a long lasting and hard wearing material.

Carbon Fiber For RC Cars

Carbon fiber is used on many RC cars for all types of things, from chassis to shock towers. The key benefit to carbon fiber is an excellent strength to weight ratio that makes it an ideal material for race RC cars.
