Default New frame stiffeners for Cal. 30, any takers???

Hi everybody,
I know that there are a lot of pics that were posted for stiffening your caliber with braces, carbon fiber arms, etc.
I had noted the weakness in frames and started working on it before a lot of this info surfaced.
I finally have a workable design, designed to work with ems and mms.
I should be able to supply pictures as soon as I receive some production spec carbon fiber. This is a two part system.
The front frame stiffener works great for torsional stabilization of the whole frame. It is a SWEET innovative design that drops in and needs either a screw or some epoxy to hold it in place. You have to remove your throttle servo to install this one.
The servo stiffener resolves 90% of the flexion (up and down) and torsional (twisting) weakness of the servo tray. I think it is better designed than some of the others out there, and definitely looks cool!
There is a good amount of carbon fiber involved and specially milled standoffs, so I priced the set at $50.
An additional 3mm carbon fiber tray stiffener for ems setup only will be available soon as well, not sure of the price yet...

So I wonder, is anyone interested, or should I abandon an effort to launch a production run of these parts?

Thanks for your replies!!!

Regards,
Chris
