Title: Need Help building a boat using available materials Post by: Raman Babbar on August 17, 2013, 05:21:34 PM Hello RC lovers,
Somehow i managed to find this great forum on which i thnik can get any help and experience you need about the RC world. To begin with i wanted to tell you this is not my stream but as a hobby i want to deal with the RC stuff as i love to do so. I'm planning to design a boat(RC) with all the stuff to be used from home with min. amount of money spent on materials as the term of the event i'm participating. The event is all about winning boat battles (WARSHIP) you can say.. So I need the help anykind you provide me with design,suggesting homemade material,parts etc. Thank you,. waiting for replies :help: :help: :help: Things i managed to get !)hard thermocol from a refrigrator box for hull 2)light DC motors from Gaming controllers(used for vibrations) you are open to suggest and advice me where i'm wrong....Please reply soon Title: Re: Need Help building a boat using available materials Post by: AnjanBabu on August 17, 2013, 07:42:20 PM In addition to what you already have, you'll need,
Water propeller Shaft/stuffing tube Battery pack Radio set ESC (Electronic Speed Control)-- you'll need brushed ESC as you have brushed motors. and a few other construction materials like glue and tools. Thermocol has nice buoyancy, it should work well for you, given that you shape and balance the hull properly. Good luck. :thumbsup: Title: Re: Need Help building a boat using available materials Post by: Raman Babbar on August 18, 2013, 11:02:46 PM thnx AnjanBabu for your reply but let me remind you that the condition of competition is to make your boat the most economic...so radio set will be little bit costly as well as esc, any other alternative for that or any other source from which i can get a second hand used radio set???
Also please tell me how to start with the design that will be effective as this one is not like a motor boat than a warship.... thnk you waiting for replies.... :) :) Title: Re: Re: Need Help building a boat using available materials Post by: aniket210696 on August 18, 2013, 11:29:05 PM second option (though ridiculous) is to buy a Chinese rc car which goes forward backward left and right. extract the electronics from it and use them to power the boat... that way you get a cheap remote to control the boat.. be warned there are no guarantees with this system, and it can fail anytime...
