Could someone please let me know what thickness CF plate BVM use for their flex plates on their their smaller models?

Thanks

Mine are 1/8" thick=3.17mm

Thanks. Could I ask what model/weight this is for?

I checked my original BVM T-33 plates and the main part is .080" and right where the retracts mount is .120". My T-33 was about 17 lbs and the plates worked very well.

On my scratch built F-94C I made the plates .120" over the whole plate but the plate is larger so I think I will get about the same flex.

That's really helpful guys, thank you. I am thinking of making up some plates for a model which weighs around 16.5 lbs dry, so the thickness you have on your T33 should be just right.

Thanks again

Andrew
