[MrRyanlusetti]

can you please give me a website where I could buy PVC-u panels like in your video

[ChrisLuxembourg]

@MrRyanlusetti It's from a german DIYers shop "Hagebaumarkt", you will fill it in the garden sector.

It has got 1mm thickness and slightly blue colored! Don't take PP or PE plastics, you cannot glue it!!!

Hi,

It is a wonderful material !

How did you glue it on the framework ?

What is its thickness ?

And what is its price ?

[ChrisLuxembourg]

I've tested much glues, but this glue was one with the best performance.

The glue is from SOUDAL and called "FIX ALL Classic", it's a MS-POLYMER glue and hyper flexible. The price for a 330ml cartridge about 8EUR.

The windows are PVC-U, it's slightly blue colored and has got a thickness of 1mm. The price is about 9EUR/qm, I found it in gardensector at "Hagebaumarkt"(germany)

I also tested PE, but I cannot glue it with the most conveniently glues!

And next the Aptera Sledgehammer test ;)

I don't need to travel to California, I create my own "Aptera"...

@xmicina

It's CarbonLine. With the new direct hubmotor drive the acceleration is very good now. I can pedal only 120-150Watts permanent. In the LiPO-battery are about 7hours pedalpower stored, where's the problem???

I'm not working in a car repair service, I'd never needed because I have my own garage/workshop.....
