More Sprit

Just to explain what we did concerning the last blog: Firstly we wrapped the existing pole with 4 layers of uni UT-C400/500 then we wound some more carbon winding filament to make sure it was nice and tight (we did the winding by putting the pole on a hand drill and fed the filament on while is span round.... slowly!!). Finally we added some XC411 carbon to affix the pole to the bow and the existing structure we had. I light bogging with some micro-baloons and finally a coating of high build (I will add a picture later) A little more bogging and fairing will be required. MMmmm perhaps we should have just gotten a bigger pole!!
