This 50cm Mini Mono ticks all the boxes: It's fast, cheap, and easy to build yourself!
We're oval running the boat, and I share my setup of this hull in the 2nd part of the video.

That’s is a huge surprise I thought the weight would make quite a difference.
Yeah, I honestly expected a bit more, too! I think there's more in it with another prop. This 936 prop drive draws too much current. I will test other props soon!
Always a good day ehen cozy uploads a nice video🎉🎉
Thanks, I appreciate your support 😎
It runs amazing 🎉 fantastic work
@Pete-m2s thank you Pete! Are you family of Dim? Because I see his (sons) Cozy F1 in your picture 😎
@@CozyRC yes I am his son.And at the picture is our cozy f1!
@Pete-m2s Ah, I thought so! Nice to meet you! And great work on the paint and decals of the Cozy F1 👌
@@CozyRC thank you very much!Nice to meet you too!
Thank for this now i will finally get my mini mono to run good and maybe do some 4s runs.
I'm glad I could help you forward! 4S is going to be ballistic with the Rocket 2948 3450kV 😅. I will try that with the carbon Mini Mono.
With this wooden one, I got 84km/h on 4S with a 2600kV motor.
Next video, I will try a 38mm prop on this one ✌️
@@CozyRC nice i have alreay detounged my props to cancel the torqeu roll and it was running great untill the esc burned. But i could get to qaurter trothle and then it was to fastt
oh, too bad about your esc! First, make sure your boat runs good on 3S, with low temperatures. Then, maybe try 4S, but as I said before, that is a very hot setup!
boat is fantastic 👌 love it 👍 😀
Thank you, for your positive comment! It's an awesome little boat 😎
Muy buenos videos... Gracias por compartir.
Thanks, and you're welcome 😎
Great tutorial Jan👌. Have you ever thought of lengthening the rudder arm in this boat? It already runs great just for experiment😅
@kaprc631 Thanks, Dim! My carbon Mini Mono gets an extended rudder arm, so let's see the difference in handling! ✌️
New lake 👌
Yes, a small pond nearby! Very quiet place, not yet discovered by fishermen. 😅
@@CozyRC perfect for a hot race between 2 or 3 Mini Mono😁
Oh yes, I would love that! It's probably going to happen soon. Carbon vs Wood Mini Mono 😎
Hi Jan… again, very nice video. However i have a question.
Is there any disadvantage in moving the rudder a little more towards the center of the stern without obviously interfering with the rotation of the propeller? This is because the propeller will generate a conical flow of air. But if there is such a possibility... is there any disadvantage in terms of performance? At least it will turn better to the left, right?
Tks
That's a good question! The prop rotation and motor rotating mass, already result in a torque on the boat, steering it in a certain direction.
Most times, mono hulls have a rudder on the right. But there are mono's with a rudder behind the prop as well. My Psychocat catamaran also uses a rudder behind the prop. I notice that boat does have more torque steer than my boats with a right-posotioned rudder.
I guess the most efficient way, is not to disturb the prop thrust cone with a rudder. If you prefer left- and right steering ability, a center rudder is a good option.
@CozyRc congratulations on the project.
At this moment, how many kV are you using in this mini mono?
Thank you! I'm running a Rocket 2948 3450kV on 3S right now.
So your running a 36mm prop
Is it standard or de-tongued ?
Is it 1.4 pitch
Correct, this is a TFL 36mm 2-blade prop with 1.4 pitch. It's not detounged, but it is sharpened and balanced.
I'm also running a CNC aluminium 36mm 1.9 pitch prop. I did detounge that prop. The setup runs a bit hotter with that prop, but the boat is faster too. I hope you figure out your setup! Cheers ✌️
Good day, Jan! I hope you are doing great.
I got a question for you. No, actually,i need suggestion from a Veteran,my Step down mono has a 4050Kv , willing to run it with 3-4s , which propeller should i take? I'm going for 70-75Km/H i guess.
And, 4050 kv 4s a bit much? Should i stick with 3s?
Hi Sakibian, I'm fine, thanks! I hope you are doing well, too.
Regarding your question: 4050kV on 3S is already a hot setup. On 4S is a very hot setup, and I wouldn't recommend that.
70-75km/h must be easily possible with that motor on 3S. For the prop recommendation, I need to know 2 things: how long is your boat hull, and what size of motor are you using? ✌️ DJ
@@CozyRC The Hull is 648mm long , using a 2860 inrunner motor.
I would start with a 34-36mm 1.4 pitch prop. It's a high rpm setup, so better try a smaller prop first! 70+ km/h must be easily possible.
@@CozyRC Noted!
Already using a 36mm plastic propeller(on maiden trial,using 2 cell) Going to get into a Tenshock 36/37mm CNC pretty soon. But i also have a 40mm Tenshock CNC, that's why i was confused.
Thank you, always been a pleasure!
