Hi guys

I'm new to this site but am thinking about building a locost.

The thing I'm most afraid of is the nose cone and the wings that I need to mold with fiberglass.

Any websites with directions on how to do this, especially what is best to use to make the plug?

Thank you in advance

The cost, time and hassle involved in moulding your own GRP panels just aint worth it mate, there are loads of places that will gladly sell you what you need.
GTS
MK
MNR
LUEGO
MAK1
LOLOCOST to name just a few
They are all about the same in terms of cost but tend to vary in styling so shop around, or you could look out for items on ebay but this could take a while.
cheers.

Have a look on ebay under 'Locost'.
Well cheap. I got a set of clamshell front wings for under £20.00.+ £15.00 p+p.
