Carbon Fiber Board. Where do you get it?

[jgerlitz]

Hi -

I see alot of Phantom gear made out of it. Gimbals, Anti-Vibration Mounts etc. I'm talking about that carbon fiber material. It's not real carbon fiber is it? Real carbon fiber is WAY expensive.

I think this stuff is some cheap knockoff material.

Still, I'm trying to find out what it's called and more importunately, where to buy sheets of it.

Here's a picture of what I'm talking about.

Any help would be appreciated.

It's real carbon fiber. Carbon fiber is WAY expensive in some applications. In many others, it's lighter and only slightly more expensive than fiberglass (due to the amount of cloth used).

Here's a US source for some CF board:

Thanks for the quick response and info! Much appreciated.
