Re: pic: GBX-123 chassis example

The biggest negative (performance wise) to plywood over G10 is that it is thicker. If ground clearance is important it can make a difference. Otherwise its much easier to manufacture and secure components into(pre drill and then self tapping screws). The extra weight is negligible because it is so low to the ground.
