Thanks! I scratched built it from my own plans. Please see this link: drive.google.com/file/d/1KJ7w50VnKX5u0Xzpfv7bfFLpldjvLJiR/view?usp=drivesdk

@@CozyRC awesome thanks 😊

Yes, that's possible for sure. I've shipped boat kits to Australia just a couple weeks ago, actually. Please send me an email at cozyrc1@gmail.com or contact me on Facebook

If you let me know how much it is and how I can pay you so I can arrange a kit with you, please

That's not a very polite way to ask something😒

You can send me an email at cozyrc1@gmail.com or send me a message on Facebook.

Thanks!

No particular reason, wood glue would have worked too!

I agree, that would be a blast! Whi knows someday 😉

It's really interesting, and I gained some knowledge on lifting strakes and their behavior. This run was on 3S, and I will definitely try 4S as well! 80+ km/h should be easily possible 💪 For the M500 I will try several setups, one of them being a 2848 1980kV on 6S! 😎

@CozyRC good kv👌

Good comment, thanks! I have both the banana style and the solid ones. I never had issues with either of them, actually. But the banana connectors I use are tight fit as well

Thanks! I got the tie-wrap mod from one of my RC friends. It's easy to apply and effective 👍

@CozyRC Agreed 👍

I use a similar calculation, where I can also calculate the theoretical speed. I make calculations for my profession (Mechanical Engineer) so I love playing with numbers and put the theory at the test 😎

@ sweet,I do the same, based on the resulting speeds from the calculations across all my tests.

I agree, but this short stinger is very difficult to tilt up. Therefore, I'm using a longer stinger on the successor of this Mini Mono, the M500 😎

Both motors perform great in this boat. I will definitely try bigger props with the Turnigy motor, and I will run it on 5S as well!

@CozyRC 5s sounds like crazy! I cant wait😊

Oops, sorry I meant 4S 😅. Should be fast still!

Thanks! I guess it's partly luck and some experience by now ;)

@halimbklm674 I started with Lego Duplo basically since I was born. I promoted to a motorized Lego train at the age of 6, and stepped up to Lego Technic around 8 years old. Then, I bought my first Tamiya RC car at age 13 and I'm hooked on RC's ever since! I build boats for 20 years now, but basically, I'm building stuff since I was born 😄

Missing from where?

@@DavidAshcroft-eu7de Yes, a beautiful boat from a German hobbyist. It has a single gas engine, driving 2 props with a gearbox.

About 90cm in length

@MALBACHinc Single or twin motor can both go fast and work well. I don't know about your experience, but a single motor is definitely easier to build and setup.

@ thanks man, my experience is zero both in driving and building the boat, but i do know how to build a cutting plan on softwares and exited to plank the design . I agree single motor is more suitable for inexperienced boater

@@wolfen946 Easycomposites has it all!

@ thank you !

Thank you!

It's a DIY sanding block. Just a flat piece of wood with a handle and a piece of sandpaper. It's easy to make yourself 😉

Those extrusion profiles are put on the bottom to keep it absolutely flat!

The tube size is 5x3mm and I used this one: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_ExOEpKM

The tube size is 5x3mm. I used this one: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_ExOEpKM You mean the brass tube for the steering rod feed through? That is a left-over I had. You can use any tube you want. I once used a cut pen cap 😎

I use CNHL 3S 2200mAh and 3000mAh 70C lipos for this boat!

Not too bad, right? 😅 the water was near freezing, so I can imagine!

@CozyRC not bad? Ment the setup did it on a breeze. Lots offs room left 😉

@peteroosterhoff8850 I agree! Time for a more aggressive prop 😎

They are! Please see this link: drive.google.com/file/d/1KJ7w50VnKX5u0Xzpfv7bfFLpldjvLJiR/view?usp=drivesdk

It will come to you soon!

Oh, nice! That's the first one with a jet drive that I heard of.

Yes,it will start this season! 😎👍

Very cool indeed! And expensive s well 😅

Thank you, that boat was the surprise of 2024!

Thanks! 😎

Thanks, Paul! Yes, she ran light at the front! Aero is one solution indeed. Another way is the strut angle. It probably needs a slight down angle from where it is now. I appreciate your feedback!

@@CozyRC I Must have made 25/30 over the years for circuit racing, so had to be able to slow down, and strut angle gets you so far, then the nose can dig in at the start of the heat and everyone else goes wizzing by.

Yes, that was a crazy shakedown! I'm not sure how it was caused. Let's how it was a single occasion 😅

This prop is a good start, but probably it will run much better with a 638 or even a 640 prop. I guess we will find out 😎

Thanks James! I was happy with that very similar top speed as well! We will race, but not in a physical head to head, because we live in different countries 😄. The first goal is to get this boat to 100km/h with the stock setup! (Prop charge allowed)

You can send me a message on FB 👍

Thank you 😎

That video will definitely come! But it's near freezing here, so I wait for warmer weather before I work on the 3D printed boat again.

Thanks! The key is to reduce the drag of the boat as much as possible. That's why I'm going to try a thin carbon rudder blade next. And yes, you have to build your boats very strong if you want them to survive a big crash! I will speed run this boat for a new record this year 😎

Check the video conclusion 😉

I agree with both!

Thank you for your positive comment!

@@CozyRC every time for u!
