About the carbon fiber. This particular monocoque used a male mold, in reality, to do the carbon fiber layup. The weave pattern was always somewhat more subtle on the outer surfaces but stood out on the inner surfaces. Today, female molds are primarily used. Those produce a much smoother and shinier outer surfaces and the weave is much more defined and visible.
Thank you for the information I have been the same thing at the model shop it's just a bit unusual to see that on a 1/12 scale car but if that what it is I will work with that did you think you paid to much or are you happy with the price
Hi tony thank you for watching my video what I can do if you like I can do a video on how to install the light if you like me to no problem at all just let me know and I will get one done
Hi Tony hope you are well I have just done the video should be on later today I hope this will help you if you have any questions I will be more than happy to answer your question
Would like to see if the floor and tub are warped and also some knowledge of ejector pin marks. I can tell there is no weave pattern in the carbon fiber. For me to pay this much I would need some plumbing and electrical fittings and stellar carbon templates and decal material. In my opinion the price is not justified in the kit. Thanks for the video, sticking with my Tamiya.
Thanks for watching, I'm glad I'm not the only one to think it's overpriced. I agree with you strongly about the carbon fibre, definitely not weavy enough! Will have to look into possibly cutting my own carbon fibre sheets for this. Have a great new year!
Yes it is I didn't get this kit for myself got it for my son's birthday he was looking at this model awhile ago I guess I was the guinea pig that go it for him But thank you for watching my video appreciate the feedback it helps the channel to grow have a great weekend
Yes it is a odd kit it's going to look a bit odd with my 1/24 scale f1 models but I will see how billed goes but thank you for your feedback and thank you for watching my video hope you have a great new year
@@gbmodels7790 When I get around to building it, I'll leave the engine out, use the transmission to hold in the rear suspension, and not use the screws to fasten everything together so I can remove the screw mountings from inside the engine cover .

I really like the effect with the charging light. Is there a video of how it was done?

@@gbmodels7790 yes please. It looked extremely effective on the smaller model so should be even better in 1/12th scale.
@tonyhonour665 no problem at all tony i will try to get a video on it in the next few days take care tony

@@gbmodels7790 that’s brilliant, thank you. I look forward with anticipation to watching the video.
I am doing this kit now loving it.
Hope it's a good billed I am going to start my one soon i hope would like to know how it's coming along for you
@@gbmodels7790 so far it’s great in joy
Just wondering if you are going to put the marlboro transfers on I just got my ones on the weekend
@@gbmodels7790 yes that goes without saying
Me too. Parts fit is immaculate.

Another YTuber reviewing the Beemax Lotus says this kit is 'toy like' compared and he will sell his on.(There is quite a price difference though)
Yeh looks good but price is too high.

It is an interesting, but slightly odd kit...
