Nice one.
Big thrust, big rudder.
Watch it, she may spin like a top. May need to reduce rudder size drastically.
Good luck. Await video.

@ aman.


Its just a normal   2100kv dys  BLDC motor (500 gms thrust) with a 9/4.7 pusher prop and 18 amp esc
....acquired from a friend.


for rudder ...m using a simple 9 gram servo.

regards

For a basic air boat....you need a 2 channel TX/RX.....one channel for throttle and one for rudder.
 

BTW.....I'm using turnigy 9x :).....thats the only one i have.

but you can use any 2 channel TX RX with the range you need....:)
