Needed 1/2" OD tube
Can any of you guys help me source 1/2" Outside Diameter carbon Tube? I need to replace my tail tubes and the two online catalogs only have 1/2" Inside Diam.
BTW this is for a Hangar 9 1/3 scale Cap, the aluminum tubes bent.
Thanks,
Chris

I think CST Sales has them
www.CSTSALES.com
I just checked---------.500 OD $8.85 a foot and they sell it in a 4 foot length. If this is more than you need, I may be interested in buying some of it.

CST sales shows the unidirectional hollow carbon rod. Would this be sufficient for stab tubes or do I need the woven tubes like my wing tubes? Keeping in mind that the aluminum tubes that came with the kit bent during "pop-ups" and the like. Pretty funny to have my Cap sitting there with extra dihedral in the wing and anhedral in the tail.
Thanks for the help,
Chris
