Re: Honeycomb Composites?
Team 610 last year used 1/8th inch lexan for their electrical panel, and found it to be a suitable material to use. It was relatively strong and rigid, yet flexible enough to be able to take a hit without cracking. For affixing our components, we used zip ties to attach all components except the larger ones such as the cRio and Power Distribution Panel. We were also able to cut out the panel with some of the mounting holes on our CNC router very easily, which was another plus. From our experiences with the material, I would highly recommend using 1/8th inch lexan for your electrical panel.
