Good work! How about making a cabin to complete the effect? {:)}

P.S. I LOVE the wrought iron railing grills in your home - they have such an old world charm attached to them.............

Ved,

1) It's a neat and good one. What is in the TOP ? Coro? Looks grate for APOGEE.

2) What is the driver of the speaker? Musical Chip or sound board?

3) Is the circuit tested firstly by 6 Volt Lead Acid cell as in Pic. ?

During 1th class, I have made fancy stainless like railing just by using Aluminum foil with one side paper of cigarette box, White glue (Fevicol) and ball point refill.

Just rolled the foil in pipe over refill, bend them in desired shape and pull out the refill. The structure are looks nice and charming appearance. You may use thin Foil seal (Milk Powder Tin). They need little glue (Epoxy) and looks much better.

Just said VC, The Iron casting grill in your railing looks grate (First Pic.).
And the railing structure will add visual appearance to BEAUTY.

Thanks.

Hi Guys
After the successful flight of the micro drone(sorry.No videos) I thought of modifying my old moat to a air boat. So I used the power system bought for my new Avispad.(Going to build). Here is the video.
ENJOY!!!

Hi Ved, Nice boat.  :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff:
At your age I made one boat ( kit build) around 1984 and it took me another 25 years to restart this hobby and make 2nd one. This time it was scratch build (replicate of the first one), the best what I did remembere of the first built.

you don't get answers so quick and yes i have learnt it by experience my friend!  :giggle:
Just be patient and wait till tomorrow or at least wait for 2 hours :)
I can understand your situation ,but some one on the other side of your computer is also trying to help you, ;D to pay back that help you just need to be patient ;)


*I have tried refreshing a page hundreds of times hoping to find a reply but didn't work for me almost 95% of the times breaking my head for replies :violent: but only patience finds your way out ;D

Post by: VC on June 16, 2011, 09:43:26 PM
Dear Ved,

I can understand your frustration, We want to help you out but we really don't have a definite answer. There could be so many things that could have gone wrong with the motor. A magnet could have come loose, the shaft could have been bent etc.

Unless someone can physically see and test the motor, it will be very difficult for him to analyse what went wrong based on : "While turning the prop hit a big stone. Nothing happeded to the prop but the motor is not working. When I connect it to the ESC and batt it doesn't make any sound and spin a bit an stop."

All the best!

I suggest you take the motor, ESC and battery and meet up with Prateek and the others from Goa and then maybe they can figure it out.


Title: Re: My First Complete RC Brushless Boat
Post by: Samanth on June 16, 2011, 10:04:33 PM
Awesome boat Vedant :)  :thumbsup:

And I think the problem is with your ESC.


Title: Re: My First Complete RC Brushless Boat
Post by: Rooster on June 16, 2011, 10:38:22 PM
Hi Ved
Have you checked the motor after removing it out of the boat and separating it from the drive shaft .If you are not doing this then possibly the drive shaft is bent and hence it is not moving.

Shreekant

@anushuranger

please refer the  link https://www.google.co.in/search?q=servo+control+rudder+for+RC+boat&newwindow=1&safe=active&espv=2&biw=1440&bih=775&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiuy8i85ffOAhVJpo8KHfepACsQ_AUIBigB for some reference of how people have connected servo to the rudder

Hello Sanhosh-r... Thanks for ur advice....
Can you tell me one more thing...
Is it compulsory to attach servo with arduino..????


Title: Re: My First Complete RC Brushless Boat
Post by: anshuranger on September 05, 2016, 03:00:30 PM
Which is the most simpilar way of using a servo  ...


Title: Re: My First Complete RC Brushless Boat
Post by: santhosh-r on September 06, 2016, 08:40:51 AM
@anushuranger
Arduino needn't come into the picture if you're not going to automate anything. You need Tx-Rx, rudder servo, ESC and motor for propeller.
