Default Re: QQ 102" Yak finished and blinged-up!!

I had to baffle the engine, being a BME, which was a chore! The precut hole up front was off by about 20 degrees, so I had to trim it out which opened it up even more, making it difficult to cut enough holes out on the bottom for enough air exhaust. I ended up opening the bottom as if I had cannisters in it so the air can flow through the pipe tunnel.
This was kind of an experimental job with two layers of CF that I bagged over a simple mold ( a piece of aluminum sheet with a 90 degree radiused bend in it). It seems to be working fine - temps are about 200 in the air right now.
