Motor Boat RC - spiral vase printable
Have us print this for you
PLA from £6 inc. UK delivery on letter-sized prints. We slice, print on a calibrated Creality K2 / Bambu A1, QC and post.
I wanted to make a bigger boat so I just scaled up my boat http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:204303 to 200% and edit the bow.
It can be printed in two parts each 162 mm high.
Additional it has now a propeller drive and rudder control.
It is designed to use my Roxxy BL-Outrunner which I already used for my plane http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:86982
But this Motor is so powerfull that it would drive the boat to fast without controlling the speed. Currently I am waiting for a receiver to see if I can slow it down enough.
Meanwhile I found a little dc motor diameter 24 mm and added a mount to fasten it. Even though its less power it runs well enough and it should not go much faster without risk of capsizing.
The driving shaft is a 3 mm rod and the stern tube is 4/3 mm brass tubing.
For testing it I just bonded the two parts with tape ;-)

Be aware that you will use it at your own risk!
Better choose flat water without waves and where you can go in - in worst case... ;-)
