RCLifeOn hey simon i just got back into your channel again and it would be really cool if you made a boat that also flew like a drone just like the avengers hellicarrier!
Brings back memories of testing boats in the bathtub because it was winter... Nitro testing came to a real quick end by way of my mother with a wooden spoon.... Love your videos man...
Nice job on building that. You have a good eye for getting everything balanced and placed right. I used to create some of this kind of stuff in my earlier life and I know that things like this boat are pretty hard to get just right. It looks like you got things right on your first try. This thing corners so smoothly. It is so stable that you don't even put the lid on!
Well done. Neat project. My dad had a jet boat from the time I was about 10. 19’ 1973 Carlson Glastron CV-19 455 Oldsmobile engine. He replaced the pump with another Berkeley pump don’t recall the mode numbers but it came from a drag boat that burned down. The pump on he outside or the transom was longer and a little lower and the pitch was adjustable. That gave us between 15-20mph from the more efficient pump and getting more of the boat out of the water. So from like 52-55mph to about 70-75mph. Then the engine was rebuilt with 10:1 forged dishes pistons and a large Crowler cam and the better of the iron head factory castings and it made great power and that got us to around 90. That engine lasted about 3 seasons of super hard running. Lots of people raced then at Indian Lake Ohio. But even with a much lesser engine it still goes 70s because of that excellent pump.
Anybody who has been in the "failure zone" should watch this video. It's so great at capturing the mindset of refusing to give up when the universe just keeps fighting back hahaha! :D
PinkPonyOfPrey it’s inevitable when it comes to projects like this. Just gotta keep hammering at it. Not only will you eventually finish, but you’ll learn a ton in the process.
Why not? There are plenty of good reasons to do it. 1-You could use it to try dresses and view the outfit from different perspective 2-You could put fake wigs, fake moustache and develop your hairstyle 3- Could be used in web meetings 4- When you become old, you will remember how you was. And so on.
Hasky Gt no Ik I get that but... I have anxiety so if I turned around to get something and that was there... my mind would go to hell and I would just breakdown before I even knew what is was 😂
5kW motor on 600W (peak) power source (14.8V*4Ah*10pcs) Transmitting 5kw of power using a TPU coupler (but is orange so it should work) Man, you bend the laws of physic.:))
^^ This. Coupling two shafts perfectly coaxially is mega hard. You would have needed to couple the motor and drive unit outside the boat on a very well made set of mounting rails (that include fine adjustments), then glue the entire mounting system in as a single unit. That's why no one bothers doing it! You just use a non-ridged coupler that accommodates non-coaxial rotation.
Just so you know you do have what you need to make a centered coupler. All you have to do is put that coupler in the drill chuck. mount a drill bit in a vice and turn the part rather than the drill bit. Effectively turning you drill press into a hack rod lathe. Only thing is your limited to the size of your Chuck on your drill press as to how large a part you can drill.
@@anto_1446 yea sure but it would be limited to the length of the cable unfortunately. I think he should try the ultrasonic communications instead. It could probably be done with two arduinos, two ultrasonic transducers and maybe some amplifier module. Wouldn't it be awesome if he could receive some sort of image in real time from the submarine as he controls it and because it's controlled by an arduino it could just be programmed to resurface if the signal is lost.
Great effort to build and then tearing apart so you can rebuild. The model you crested it's a great one. In stead to cut it off you could make a mold from the boat and then make it from carbon fibre so you can enjoy the fruit of your labour selling the hull to people how appreciate your boat design , like I do.
I’m a Swedish kid myself so I should know this but I feel like every single Swedish person on TH-cam is just so funny and adorable! Simon: I really want to show this boat on a nice sunny day Me: in the Swedish winter I’m pretty sure that’s probably never going to happen
I'm not sure if i did see right at 1:13, but if the fins (dont know if this is the correct english word for it) are straigt, you have a bad efficy on the jet. The Impeller doesnt only increasy speed of the water, it also brings a spin into it. The spin later on can be converted into pressure. The fins reduce the velocity of the spin (which become 0), which gives you more pressure. So, what do you do with this pressure? You let it run thru a nozzle, to increase the speed of the outcoming water. With starting from trial and error i started calculating what actual is needed.
Shave that thing!

wait, you have a set of two humongous motors and jets and you did not print a new hull to fit them both and shoot that thing to mars ?
Up
Weeeeeeee
Humongous what ?!
(Old ©an©er memories)
You nailed the footage of it in action, on board and from outside, really looked great.
"There's no chance of failure"
20 seconds later: "It's gonna fail like 99%"
A lot of effort has gone into all these different shots ect, you have my sub for that alone.
Your determination on these projects is something to be admired and duplicated by others. :)
Love the helicopter sound over the drone footage. That cracked me up 😂

There is a reason why they call the couplers “Love Joy”
Love them because they work and it’s joyous to surmount problems!
This is so relaxing thinking of all the problem solving you got to do to get to that beautiful product
Such an underrated channel!! keep doing you dude!! Hilsninger fra Norge!!
That's one of the most stable planing hulls on an RC boat I've ever seen! :D
That intro is so creepy omg I love it 😂😂😂
I appreciate you taking the time to make this model and for sharing this video. Awesome boat and I can't wait to see that motor let rip!
Three words: *_Helical Shaft Couplers_*
You're welcome.
^^ This. Coupling two shafts perfectly coaxially is mega hard.

How do helicals compare to rubber spiders though?
They can snap pretty easily with enough torque
I think the dislikes are also 3D printed. I don't know about you but I liked this video.
Every 5 seconds im like “ooh whos that back there?” And its the manican
Cool project. Looking forward to your next issue
Put a taper on your nozzle to increase thrust. For a reference, look at jetski nozzles.
or rockets th-cam.com/video/D4SaofKCYwo/w-d-xo.html or afterburner nozzles
ahhhh man what a time you had... Glad things got worked out.... Keep up the good work :)
I laughed so hard, all those quacks yet "IQ 200" xD
stumbled onto your shtick......now i'm addicted.....and i hold you personally responsible...keep up fine work!
your such a cool guy with awesome ideas its nice to watch ur machines
So if the unicorn boat has now been painted black can we say that it's a rainbow in the dark? Dio would be proud.
I love your humor and ofcourse, the stuff you built. Keep up the good stuff/work.

Hey man are you going to make an rc submarine? It could be really intersting!
I want to see that
they are pretty advanced.
The problem is communications. But maybe there are some ultrasound transceivers or something similar available that will work underwater.
@@johansundman8221 yeah I've heard about that but maybe a long rope (about 20m long) with the cable in it could be a solution🤔
@@anto_1446 yea sure but it would be limited to the length of the cable unfortunately. I think he should try the ultrasonic communications instead.

The entertainment value of this video is gold.
it must be creepy having a lifesized you in your room at all times xD just staring
Nice video of trip to water. Many camera angles appreciated.
Hands down, the hardest part of making an RC boat is the freakin coupler.
For me it's the alignment that's difficult, couplers I can buy, but getting the two shafts spot-on is not easy.
Really well produced and very entertaining
LMAO 😂 😂 I was yelling in my head, just use a u joint!
I really like this jetboat. All your projects are awesome!
9:54 wow that *is* fast
Been following your videos for quite some time now. Very well done, your content is awesome! Thanks
Try looking up "bellows coupling" those couplers are extremely tolerant to misallingment and also very rigid.
Great effort to build and then tearing apart so you can rebuild.

For your motor to propeller using a U joint would do the trick.
a blunt would do the trick too

Love your vids! Big hug from Portugal
7:50 *try's in bath
Me: that's to small bro
A pair of universal joints in the shaft from the motor to the propellor. Solves alignment and reduces vibration, also helps isolate thrust.
"I JUST SAWED THIS BOAT IN HALF!"
Very well, you present your work in a very creative way

can you do that whe you say 100 mph can you put it on the screen how many km/h
and when you say km/ you can put mph to the screen? btw good video

What type of motor did you use for this project? I couldn't see it very clearly.
I was trying to figure this out as well!
Just found your channel, ice skating video and now this +1. Awesome stuff
That's... not a boat anymore. It's a friggin' rocket.
That's crazy! You did an awesome job dude! Thanks for sharing.
To drill perfectly centred holes with a drill press, mount the drill in the vise, and the workpiece in the drill.
I'm not sure if i did see right at 1:13, but if the fins (dont know if this is the correct english word for it) are straigt, you have a bad efficy on the jet.
