HYDRO PLANER.....




Good after noon all respected Modelers.. Friends.. Colleagues..
many of us thinks scratch building is making a model in to 1:200, 1:144, 1:72, 1:48, 1:35, or O (zero), HO (half the zero) and on.. but, all these scales are established scales, mostly by kit manufactures.. as a professional modeler, i never sticks on these scales, but always on my needed size and scales.. for an example, all we know, a 1:48th scale P47 D thunder bolt aircraft spans with it's wing in to 17 cms aprox, so, if a client asks me to build a P47 D with a span of 30 inches, what can i do..? simply say i cant..? why..? here came the importance of scratch building.. we can build our models in our own scale and sizes as we follows the three views and photographs of the machine.. years before, the redrawing scale was a little job, as we have to redraw all specs with our hands.. but today, we have computers and appropriate software helps us a lots and can make a needed 3 views in seconds.. and can also take a printouts within matter of minutes.. the softwares gives us an option of altering a colour photographs in to sketch.. i was making models from my child hood.. so, i clearly know thers no any written or unwritten definitions for scratch building.. we can use a wooden twig to golden rod if our financial state allows.. and a scratch built model may not be simple, as we can go to any extreme in complexity, that if we are capable of carrying it out.. but here my aim is making models from handy things around me.. and i always success.. i am adding a link from Wikipedia, regarding the scratch building.. it tells us that, about the need, material and ideas of scratch building.. i am so proud of myself, because i was using some mainly considered methods around the globe.. is paper and scaling from photographs.. a great flexibility.. so, no time to waste.. this effort is to complete my heavy duty harbor tug, in to a 4 feet long scale..  Thumbs Up

Roopesh sir, those are some very motivating words, the spirit and art of scratch building is not scaling but to start from nothing and going on to have that something in your hands.

so this tug was not from a plan.. but the dimensions were taken from a real harbor tug, from Rotterdam.. and yes added lots of my personal touches, in total shape and super structures.. because this one is realized to operate from anywhere, from lake to river, river to real harbor.. so, a low profile is a must, to keep the CG low.. because of it's two stage super structure.. the craft spans in to 4 feet.. and heavy, in its nature, because of the fully displacement type hull.. so, i added an immensely powerful motor for this.. while keeping all experiences to avoid high speed, but great torque to deliver..  
i told you all that the thermocol,( expanded polystyrene )  is the ever best material to make crafts.. when formed this can simply outclass any type of hull with it's light weight, high stiffness, reliability.. ease of repair.. ease of rework.. and gives us an excellent finish with nominal materials..so, this material is first in my list.. but, thermocol takes a little time to dry up.. as we have to treat it nicely.. but still no hard works.. even a child can do.. so, here i starts with laminated thermocol.. one sheet costs about 18/Rs.. here..

Thank you Girish..
here i havent any related materials.. no lathe works.. no expensive items.. still none of you think that i am not a capable one to get all these needed ones from outlets... from around the globe.. but still we need nothing as expensive or traditional.. here, the drive shaft and bearings from bicycle parts, and tube is a body of a pen..

can simply see the simple bearing layouts..
the craft is heavy and enormous.. so have to add a good powerful motor.. i got this motor from a fellow modeler, as fully damaged.. were no bearings.. so, instead of adding two bearings i added a full length self lube bush, that helped to cool the motor so well.. and all you know one of the most powerful motor is in it's class.. added water cooling helped a lots, keeping the motor at room temp at all speeds continuous..

very true roopeshji, I will be following this thread, I've always admired your usage of ball point pen casings for the tubes, I'm also trying to use the same technique for making tailwheels

the prop is made of aluminum sheet.. from a vessel lid.. the pitch of the blade is kept just below the stall angle.. with highly valance petals..
to keep the rpm low, while generates a high torque..
 adding a kort nozzle is a must, as the tug need more directional thrust.. it also helps to add a strainer for safety, as this one is intended to operate in rivers and harbors..

Girish.. use a 2mm bicycle spoke as strut, and a toy wheel as tail wheel.. works fine..  Thumbs Up
 here i am thanking to Mr Vinodh Madhavan, (my brother Vinoettan), for the gift of a bunch of Futaba servos, motors and radios.. ample of servos.. so added a standard servo here as the tugboat is heavy.. no any complicated layouts are chosen, but simple straight forward method.. the link is made of zink sheet, and a wire terminal is soldered to the link to from the tiller arm..  Thumbs Up

and added an inbound 25/75 rudder panel, to get an easy turn, in all speeds.. this elimitaed the need of adding a thrust pump, as i can control the speed of the motor from 0 to high in both directions.. result.. easy turns despite her's size.. 
can also see the intake water scoop to cool the motor..

photograph shows the fixation of the motor.. the foam board is placed in such a way to absorb any vibrations at high speeds..
and can clearly see the cooling line arrangements.. so simple and effective.. anyone can do..

once again in detail.. nothing is complicated here.. motor is fixed by two M3 screws, for easy maintenance..
 the exhaust is placed at the side of the craft..

after thorough check outs for hours, time to add super structures.. the panel works are by 2 mm foam board, to keep weigh low as possible..
the bollards came from aluminum rivets.. to avoid rust, as i have to operate her from real sea harbor..

work progress.. we have to keep an eye, in working parts as the boat is not realized for keeping over bookshelf, in a glass case.. instead this one is purely made for gruesome RCying.. so, some design considerations is must..
before going to the final work, some sketch is a must, to retain scale.. a dry run helps us always.. with a paper cut..

HYDRO PLANER.....



to make decals, in to any size, or any scale, we do not want to be in a high teck city.. instead we can simply write by hand.. was doing previously.. but today, we have the personal computer, and can make any decals, in to any shape, any type, any size.. from mm to meters.. a simple home printer makes it all.. in am A4 paper.. by using appropriate softwares.. Word, Coreldraw, Photoshop.. anything that can be used here.. but sure, only we can if we are gifted by God.. means we must need an art in us.. if so, we can make any decals for our crafts.. if i can make this decal from my little village, any one can make a good decal with a high quality printer from a little town.. no matter..

this one is realized to RC around the clock.. so a good lighting is essential especially for a big craft.. so added high power L E Ds all the while..

Veloci.. thanks for the inspiring words.. but navigating through my log you can see nothing is traditional or tough here.. but all easy that anyone can do..

the boarding ladder..
the ladder is made of paper and some brass rods..

Friends.. i added this build log here, not to show you all that i am a big gun.. instead, all you will get a clear picture, that we can make any craft, any type and in any size, that from the material around us.. here i haven't used any power tools to accomplish this model.. still you can see how beautiful and practical it is.. and please do not tied up in scale issues as we can go to all up to our desired and needed scales, with appropriate materials around us.. just like drawing or sketching a picture, we can scale down all needed vehicles to our desired size.. but sure, only, can if we are gifted.. so, leave all scale matters behind us.. make crafts, your own.. because Rcying  is for every one.. make it.. RCyit.. enjoy it.. when i was at lake side, secondly, gone to harbor.. so, Mr Ravi, is a fish merchant, caught me at hand, and grabbed the craft as he needed this.. so, this time i promised him to make a same craft for him.. so happy.. and here is the first cool action..

Friends.. the total cost to realize this craft is mere 500 Rs.. means the money for 5 Malabar biriyani for 5 friends.. means a huge beautiful craft for lifetime RCying.. how much we costs about maintains it for a life time..? after a two years of RCying we have to replace the cycle spoke nipples and spoke itself if it worn.. and in my experience if we use 2T oil, it never happen and never rusts.. so, happy crafts.. try it..

here is the build log..  Thumbs Up
