Though not something for your project, reading through the 38 pages I had an idea. I see many here come from an aviation background. What about covering with fabric like the airplanes of old. Instead of Grade A Cotton or Irish Linen like back then, Dacron or Stitts can be made tough and light.

Then, what about covering that with carbon fiber if you want more of a structural shell? I've never worked with this stuff, only helped covering some planes 45 years ago. But it seems like we could glean a lot of neat ideas out at the airport.

My hat is off to your work here! Thanks for sharing!
