hey Ghanshyam!!!!

Rooster has built Atlas Van, here is the link.
http://www.rcindia.org/boats-kites-trains-and-all-others/scratch-build-atlas-van-lines-boat/

he has given very much details and the material used. Material is SunPack is generally used as advertising board for printing

if u want to make same boat as hobbyking, with same length then go for same setup used.

i think u can use
motor: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=8593
ESC: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=10627
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=8946

moreover u can get in touch with Rooster, there is one more guy Maharana, u can find this guy on the same thread contact him, he can assist u on this as well

wish u all the best!!!

Thanks a lot sir,

Ya i am in touch with shreekant sir (Rooster).....

I also thought to use 

ESC: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=8946 X  2
MOTOR: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=8594 X 2
BATTERY: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=7295 X 2

And planning to built from balsa..
I also had an idea of using fiber glass by using a mold.....But will cost a lot.....

I REALLY wouldn't like to address Mr. Satyabrata Maharana as just "one more guy Maharana" He is, after all, in a league all by himself.

Before you jump to any conclusions, I am sure there was no disrespect intended, but such casual language and references can be a put off. Sorry if I sound a little old fashioned here.

Admin, could we have a little bit more courtesy and decorum enforced on this forum? Please?

Post by: anwar on January 19, 2011, 08:49:39 AM
VC bhai -  I cannot (or more accurately, I should not) hold people responsible... people who have not met Mr Maharana in person to revere him at the same level as someone who has.  I am sure being in his company would change the perspectives of most people here, and that would be reflected in how he is addressed.  But in this virtual only world, it is unfair to expect and ask for anything more than basic courtesy/dignity (which sort of directly means no name calling, no cussing etc).

I hope you understand my dilemma here.

Hi VC,

i really didn't mean to disrespect him. Though i didnt personally meet him, i have seen his work on this forum, it is extraordinary and only because of this i have suggested his name otherwise i wouldnt hav, though my language was causal!!!!

i do understand ur respect for him!!!!!



Title: Re: New built of Catamaran hull EP Boat
Post by: Ghanshyam on January 19, 2011, 12:06:51 PM
VC sir and ashJR7202 sir,

I respect u all..... :bow:

Can any one help if i use

ESC: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=8946 X  2
MOTOR: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=8594 X 2
BATTERY: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=7295 X 2

Can make a fast and powerful BOAT.
And will contact or PM Mr. Satyabrata Maharana sir for further help.

Post by: Ghanshyam on January 26, 2011, 04:00:35 PM
Still the outer covering is left out.

Planing to use same material of 1mm and after that will apply carbon fiber cloth on it to make it strong.


Title: Re: New built of Catamaran hull EP Boat
Post by: Ghanshyam on February 01, 2011, 01:22:53 AM
Still have to fiber glass the boat to make it real strong..

Have you glassed it already? if yes, which epoxy did you use?
I am planning to make a fiber glass fuselage for this plane i am building, but I am not sure which epoxy to use.


Title: Re: New built of Catamaran hull EP Boat
Post by: Ghanshyam on February 14, 2011, 04:28:14 PM
Sir,
I applied fiber cloth on the bottom part, I used Araldite as epoxy...

But i din got a satisfactory result, The best way is to go to auto shop who modify bikes or make Bath tub...
I am going to visit a factory who produce bath tub using fiber cloth, I am also planing to make a boat from fiber glass.....If you get some information regarding the making and the epoxy do PM me.....


Title: Re: New built of Catamaran hull EP Boat
Post by: SunLikeStar on February 14, 2011, 04:35:06 PM
sure!
I had good result with Araldite but its is pretty expensive and difficult to sand.

And please don't call me sir, call me SunLikeStar or Amit if you like :)

In case I missed it, what are the dimensions of this baby? You've got some pretty impressive hardware and if you are not careful, she will rip the hell out of the water.

You've taken a lot of effort and it shows. All the very best. :thumbsup:
