The Fenders on a vehicle like the T42, must be carefully designed to privent aerodynamic drag in high speeds. A Ordinary "cyclewing" fender is not optimal at all in speeds above 200km/h, and can even create lift. In speeds upto 300km/h, I want to minimize the disturbance. So I have designed a new fender with inspiration from a waterdrop in combination with the same "bob/aerocraft" nose shape I have made on the mainbody.










I started with a 22mm chipboard which I made profile plates of. Its a space between the plates, which I sealed with foam.





I have made a "fenderstand" to get a distance to the floor. Then I have put about 6kg of plaster on the wood frame to get a more solid shape.
