I think you should roughen the rod with sandpaper to give the epoxy something to bite on.

Thanks for the nice vid! I'm new to EPP worked with balsa so far. How do i solidify EPP? i just made a delta wing and the carbon (hot glued) works fine to solidify the basic shape but i feel i have to make the ailerons rigid or they will twist -EPP is kind of soft... any method of making it more rigid? some glue? Thanks!

@tallguysd I know this is an old ass video, but I just wanted to say, if you use unequal weight to hold it down, you run the risk of bowing the graphite if you leave it sitting.

There is no need to rough them up when using epoxy to wipe them down and get any dust off them

Thank you man, I feel stupid, 20 years of flying nitros, electrics and EDF's so my next stop was 3d epp, I am using good ol welders on all surfaces but stopped when I got to the rod because I couldnt see why the instruction said to use it for everything. The CF spare should be very stiff and solid, for outdoor flight correct? I know this is an old video in RC time but is this still the method used??? BTW I am building the Fancey Foam YAK 55 32''. Using 2mm CF rod to spider brace the aft fuse.

@vizzuleyes I dont use Epoxy anymore I use Contact Cement like Welders of a glue called Foam Tac cement to glue all the carbon rods! I still use tape for all my hinges but will time to time make them out of hot glue! I dont do Welders hinges as they take so long to dry!
