Here another picture of the inside looks like fiberglass to me. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170617/c3dfc000ecc14c130d4d383ef3bf5054.jpg

Looks like a version of the 'Sober' from The Build R/C.
Yours doesn't have the two hatches in the sponsons for the twin motors. Or does it look like they've been patched?

I will have to agree with y'all. Just checked out the link and looks just like it. Now the question is how would I go about mounting the motor mount to the kevlar and the shaft tube for the flex shaft?
