Ducted Fan Hydro

Post by peppyuk »

Since I've no idea how to build boats I decided to build a ducted fan propelled hydroplane. Drawn up in Fusion360 and printed on the Prusa it turned out looking something like this. This is based around a Velocity-RC 70mm ducted fan with a 3200kv motor running on a 4S battery.

Cheers,

Off out later this month to see if my speed wedges lift it a little higher out the lake.
