 So last night I get inspired my brain said hey make this so I did and then this morning Hey, put a couple screws in this. This is all stainless steel. It's two pieces one piece there one piece here It's just folded together Yeah, so has two screws holding it in place and then I filled it with spray foam That's why this tape is here to keep the spray foam. I'm squirting out the bottom. I'll take that off obviously So this should make it more streamlined. So I should be able to go faster And I should be able to go faster without it getting bubbles down as a propeller to and I also made it so I can put the Motor a little lower in the water than I could yesterday when I was testing it two days ago, whatever Oh, so this this top metal piece Looked like this originally I made a paper one first and then These two pieces fold over to give nice edges and then this folds over and then this folds over to hold all that together and the bottom piece Comes up and has little flanges that overlap over here So they get all squished in under there and then where this is bolted on they get squished in under there, too So the bottom piece is just held in by squishing. Oh, no Those screws go through it too through some of the flanges like right up right about here Whatever I put it together in the dark last night. So I didn't really get a any video of it And just now I mounted this guy on the ceiling. Oh, isn't that clever? so this is this had screw holes in it instead of putting screws I just stuck rivets in them and You know put something in the way so the rivet rivets wouldn't go all the way down and then this is just a piece of plastic That is the right width to fit snugly between the rivets. So if I go like So Just slides right on there. It's pretty good Without worrying about this falling on the water So now I'm just waiting for the spray foam to cure before I take it for a test that's a little squishy in there. Oh See how this sticks out in front of the thing where the water is going to hit That'll make it so it's harder to suck bubbles in Because like what happens up here is the water hits and spreads apart and then back here you get an air pocket, right? But up here the water is going to hit and even if it does spread apart a little It won't be able to suck any air through the metal. So it should help the water to stick To the metal the whole way through and not give any bubbles to the propeller At least that's what my brain tells me. Oh Look what I found. It's the right voltage range too. I just tested this on my Power here and then compared it to the readout I get with that on that I was getting 52.7 This I was getting about 52.3. So close enough This works. I don't know where to put it. It'd be nice if it was like right here However, all these switches are in the way I don't want to get in the way of switches Charged controllers right there. I Guess this could go in front of it. What if I need to Think about this All right, I'm back in the boat. I got my thingy hooked up here the motor's back here connected with the Streamed line Eliza that I made down there and I mounted the motor about that much lower in the water than it was So hopefully it won't suck any bubbles and I'll just be able to drive For real the other day, you know, it's like a bubble So far so good This boat hasn't gone this fast having no problems at all right now. That's great. I want to give it more juice right now though I want to let the batteries charge If the Sun was out higher, I could definitely do it just with solar panels but once again, I was out digging all day and I think it's about 530 now. So the Sun's pretty low although I'm still getting decent speed Just on solar panels See let's look at it while it's kind of lower powered Man that is looking excellent That stream line Eliza the bubble iser Works really well Sometimes people think it's kind of silly that I put in all these switches And make the whole system a little more complicated instead of just running everything through the batteries. However, I thoroughly enjoy Being able to set this to just solar panels For to the motor and still have two solar panels charging the batteries So I know I'm still charging and I'm and I'm going like basically for free So I didn't have that set up. I wouldn't I wouldn't know if I was dipping into the batteries Or just using you know available power that's coming in this way. I know I'm charging and I'm going if there are naked ladies on the spaceship involved It went very well So the the stainless steel piece I made at the bottom to prevent bubbles from getting into the propeller You probably wouldn't need that on a normal boat because normally, you know You've got a single hull boat and then at the back of the boat You attach your motor and the propeller and everything is right at right at the back of the boat So as the water is coming through the boat smooths out the water now Now in my boat, I've got two pontoons and the motor just hanging out not near anything else So if there are waves that means I get a rising and lowering Water level at the propeller. So that's why it was very beneficial to do that Well, I've got a young child to attack me
