Big thrust, big rudder. Watch it, she may spin like a top. May need to reduce rudder size drastically. Good luck. Await video. Title: Re: My first boat....AIR BOAT.... Post by: aman1256 on December 24, 2013, 11:00:08 PM Thats so cool !!! will be following the thread with interest ;) :)

Title: Re: My first boat....AIR BOAT.... Post by: madaquif on December 31, 2013, 06:00:02 PM 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....:) |
