RC Air Boat Custom Built From Scratch

[heejification]

Nice boat! I think it will be much more stable in tight corners when the bottom sides are slightly curved, it will skid much better. My boat had 90 degree sides, and sometimes it flipped over when I steered to much when going fast. In fact, I could not steer when on full throttle, it would flip for sure!

whats the cost of all the materials?

Suggestion on rake area. From video, it looks like rake could be more rounded to cut down on drag. Take a good look and you'll see what i'm talking about. Pretty heavy unit as it doesn't get on plane and another suggestion is to round the bottom edges so it can turn and glide, suggestions only to make it more fun.

[nibbler125]

looks too prone to flip over i wonder what woud happen if you hit some waves

[arsitama]

If you make the hull not flat one piece like that, but more like catamaran, it will reduce the drag, and increase the speed.

i made an electric airboat with only a 20 turn motor and the speed control and battery get very hot cuz there isnt a water cooling system. if i drill holes in the top would it get enought air inside to cool down the electronics or do i need a fan or water cooling to cool them down?

is it nitro engine ?

[crispyspa]

You want to stop the "grabbing" in the corners and slide the turns?

cut turn chimes in it. Hit me up with a pm and I'll explain what that means if you don't know.

Eliminating resistance there will just allow it to freely spin around. It just needs a little fin on the bottom to prevent it in the first place.

how did u waterproof ur radio box

[Umpquaspeycaster]

It's under the driver's seat in a box. The top of the box has weather stripping around it.

inspiring  execution

[MxAndRc4ever]

Couldnt you add to the rudders so they are long enough to start going into the water for better turning?

[Captainpete3]

go back to the drawing board.

No reason, it works perfectly!
