I remember paying insane amounts of 1997 to 2000s money just for VHS video how to for basic composite work. Quickly found we needed equipment that was far too expensive to go too far into it. Also getting the raw materials weere insane back then as well. We used a ton of select products out of Florida as they were on of the few who would sell in "smaller" amounts. Fast forward 20 years and I run across your youtube channel. Filled in some gaps I had in my self paid for and learned training, and gave me a location to order small projects t amounts of raw material from. Here I am 5 years after that still eagerly devouring every video. It's funny, never heard of intensifiers, but would make wooden bucks to do the same process. That silicone would have been a massive time saver back then!
The fact that this part is able to be manufactured as one part is truly insane. I would think of maybe making a foam core part, and then doing a wet layup. Making a mold and doing prepreg layup is next level. The finish was perfect. I'm flabbergast.
Wet layup over foam maybe quicker. But there's an awfull lit of work in postnprocessing sanding filling etc. Of course you then don't and carbon finish on yhe exterior or such precice control over external form and its heavier. Also probably weaker
Previously we had a mold-less wing video where we were teased with a molded wing if there was enough interest. I feel like this video is the spiritual sequel to that video that we never got. Thank you so much for sharing the wisdom and I am already looking forward to whatever new videos you have in the pipeline
Thanks Austin. That moulded rear wing video is still on the whiteboard in the video planning room and I’m certain it will come along at some point. There are similarities with this process but also some techniques that are quite specialised to (downforce) wing construction so still well worth us doing I think. Thanks for watching!
Making an extremely difficult project look like it is just regular hard to do. 🥰 The perfection of the part is only exceeded by the perfection of the instruction. Seriously, the talent required to teach at this level needs to be talked about. Next level.
The best part of this channel is its many dynamics with the viewers, even as the official company channel. On top of its expertise, easy-to-follow instructions, well-explained decision-making processes(arguably the most important ones in engineering), and constant focus on making the products and processes beginner and DIY friendly. I honestly could not find many flaws in you. *Edit: Oh, and all for free too!
Thanks for the kind works, feedback like this really does make all the long hard hours that we put into these videos worth it. As long as there are people who find the tutorials useful, we'll continue to keep making them.
Another amazing video. A co-worker and I were complaining about the poor quality of RVs being made in the US. He suggested we start our own company and build something good. I told him we couldn't make them cheeply enough to make them light enough. That got me thinking about a full carbon fiber roof with AC and vent flanges molded in. Keep it light and the raised flange wouldn't leak.
Composites can certainly be very useful in RV construction. As you say, significant weight savings and advantages in reliability and function from integrated mouldings. We hope to do some larger scale projects like this on the channel in the future.
fiberglass is tougher than carbon fiber and is the go-to material for RV's and boats for that reason! I'm sure there's a market for less tough but lighter carbon fiber too
I think that the Silicone Intensifier Compound precisely addresses the issue I've been experiencing with some pieces I've been making. What I've been doing to minimize the bridging problem in my pieces is placing them under pressure for 24 hours with the mold open, which helps me eliminate bridging. However, I still always end up with some imperfections that I have to fix later. I believe the Silicone Intensifier Compound will solve all my problems. I will give it a try, but thank you in advance for the tutorial.
“And my favourite part, the de-bagging” said no self taught amatuer ever. It goes one of two ways, pure joy at what you’ve produced or a pile of scrap ready for the bin.
Absolutely amazing. This channel is just top tier in this industry. That's a lot of effort for a YT video and it shows... and this sort of info is normally guarded in the industry it seems.
Thanks, we really appreciate this feedback, and yes, there’s a lot of time and effort go into making this content but it’s something that we really want to do and enjoy doing.
I think it’s absolutely amazing that we are able to watch this kind of insightful and well produced content for free. I love this channel and learning about this subject. I hope this channel thrives for a long time and that you guys can continue making great content. Thank you for making this. Best wishes for 2025!!!
Love it when the super experienced, talented guy hosting a channel "Easy Composites" ends the video by saying it's difficult and frustrating. More companies should post honest views...
Haha, yes, there were a few moments in this video, we could include them but maybe better to just acknowledge them at the end. The silicone intensifiers sticking the mould together took about an hour to separate, so we learned, fixed the method, and shared the benefit of our experience!
Brings memories when I worked at a plastics factory vacuum forming certain polymers for aerospace and automotive industry. The most important job is for the pattern makers making moulds and jigs . The other snag working for a company that made hardstyling chavant clay very, very smelly place to work for still remember the secret formula that I know of by heart .
If you’ve not watched our other vids on prepreg then yes, check it out. It’s not always the case that prepreg is best but for smaller, more intricate shapes like this then it generally is.
What a stunning looking airframe. ❤ Doofers is an appropriate name for those yellow things. Now you all know why these guys are mentioned by so many Tubers . Happy new year everyone. ☃️🎄
OK, we’ll have a think about this. Hadn’t ever planned this drone to fly, but it could. There might be a good video in explaining the traditional hand layup technique for lightweight wings, so… watch this space!
@@easycompositestv I want to see this. A bit like the SpaceX Falcon 9 landing bloopers reel. Although, I'd really like to see first the blooper and then the... rewind six hours... we did X and that was the problem. There's a lot of learning possible from mistakes, and it's way cheaper to learn from OTHER PEOPLE's mistakes!
You've got me wanting to make a CF Iron-Man suit in my basement with this stuff, lol. Maybe lay it up with some Kevlar too, ya know for bullets and stuff. :D
Incredible job and it's beautiful. I really want to get back into flying drones, but all the stuff going on here in the US, its just not worth the headache
@@easycompositestv That would be great, I am currently designing a wing for my car and would like to see a wing tutorial for a smooth surface and trailing edge. I am unsure on how to do it. It would probably be a split mould with a lap joint in the front. But I am stuk on the trailing edge. Sandwiching the halves together (in my mind) could result in a longer tail or a weaker joint. If that makes sense haha Eagerly awaiting the video - Cheers!
This is a gem, you guys are just awesome. I cannot thank you so much. I want to know if you can make a video using hand layup resin as prepeg are a bit hard to be stored and requires oven.
ahhh! carbon fiber drone... just the thing I learned about CF being electrically conductive and great at blocking RF signals.. lol.. I want a copy of that drone...
That Intensil-stuff is exactly what I have been looking for! Thank you so much for sharing - I have a similar project with exactly the same issue at the trailing edge and this could very well be the solution to my issue. I thought about using a silicone bladder before - Maybe this is another video idea?
Silicone bladders are another topic that we’d certainly be happy to cover but if you’re dealing with a tight, slim area like a trailing wing then intensifiers, rather than a silicone bag, are likely to be the solution.
@@easycompositestv Yes, exactly, that was my impression, too. The bladder would not have been rigid or thin enough to properly get into those spots, but for larger and more complex internal shapes where access for removal after curing is limited, it still seems like the best solution. A video on bladders would be awesome!
We haven't actually got a wing at this point as this UAV was never intended to be a finished model. We just needed a relatable frame to demonstrate the processes. Given the amount of people asking though it looks like we will be looking to make wings in a future video.
Thanks for watching, you may be surprised to find that this wasn't our first time working with these materials and processes. 😜That being said, although we do have years of experience behind us, we are always trying to find simpler ways around these complex processes and share what we come up with. This hopefully means that even some of the more challenging techniques can be achieved with some previous experience and a bit of consideration.
would love to see the finished fixed wing! flying foamies is cool and cheap, but one made from carbon fiber with FPV gear in the nose..... worth the money if it flies well.
Thanks for the comment. Looks like lots of interest in how the wing might be made so I think there’s a good chance we’ll cover this in a video fairly soon 👍.
@@easycompositestv be ready for quoata's if it works out to be a good flying final product lol. then again, the finished producted all polished up would also be a work of art worth it's price.
Hi, great content as always from your side :) Do you plan or would be willing to show a video diving deep into a topic of Silicone Membranes for infusion process? Showing how to manufacture this would be a great value for fabricators which value high fiber to resin ratio but do not want to sacrifice time of closing the mold with standard bagging film.
Would love to also see the process of making the wings, which is what I presume we see in the background. Spread tow fabric, and I guess intensifiers used for the sharp trailing edge?
Any chance of the long hair coming back? Haha, just looking through some of the old videos. Pretty amazing to see the advancement in quality you've all done. Very cool!
It was very excellent and professional. Are these fibers pre-impregnated with resin? Does it dry by air or heat? If it is already stained, how does it not stick to the hand?
This is prepreg carbon fibre so the resin is already in the reinforcement. Take a look at the related videos linked in the description, they explain the XC110 prepreg in full detail.
Babe, Babe !!! Wake up !! Easy Composites uploaded another masterpiece ! 🥰

Thank you. We genuinely appreciate feedback like this and don’t take it for granted 😀.
More videos! I absolutely love these tutorials . This information was guarded secrets 25 years ago when I first dabbled with composites on my own.
And 25 years ago when the Easy Composites founders (of which I’m one) started in composites!

Very few people are probably going to take on a project this difficult, but I definitely enjoyed watching it! Good call putting it up.
Thanks. Genuinely it wasn’t the original plan but we do listen to feedback because we don’t always know what viewers will or won’t find interesting!

It's a good day when a new video by Easy Composites comes out.
The best part of this channel is its many dynamics with the viewers, even as the official company channel.

Another amazing video.
A co-worker and I were complaining about the poor quality of RVs being made in the US. He suggested we start our own company and build something good. I told him we couldn't make them cheeply enough to make them light enough. That got me thinking about a full carbon fiber roof with AC and vent flanges molded in.

Intersphere is an appropriate name.
Calculating the intense pressure on the vacuum bag is key.
Yellow goo is number one.
"Next time on EasyComposites, a project you can all do from home - we build an F-22 Raptor from scratch!"

Nice video, we usually use soft vacuum sealant tape instead of silicone, works like a charm.
Been laminating for a good few years now but still picked up a few gems of knowledge there. Thankyou
Glad you found something useful there, in composites we all learn every day!
you guys are at another level, prepreg is a complitely diffrent animal when i see videos of prepreg i feel like i dont know anything about composite
This is awesome! I'm actually working on a composite UAV for my internship right now, so this is perfect timing
This came exactly when needed for my hydrofoil project!! Much thanks from Canada.
