Title: New RC boat Post by: amitbhisikar.2006 on February 21, 2012, 07:17:12 PM hi friends check out my new cheap project of rc boat on brushed motor

Where is this lake? I'd be really glad to come over and watch your boats and also test my hovercraft on that lake!
Title: Re: New RC boat Post by: Swapnil on February 21, 2012, 08:07:48 PM Just saw the full video and, hell, that lake is just 500 meters from my house! Never went there because it's too crowded and dirty!
Anyways, that's one speedy boat you got there! Really cool! {:)} Title: Re: New RC boat Post by: amitbhisikar.2006 on February 21, 2012, 08:22:01 PM yep it’s too crowed and dirty that’s the compromise you have to make for the love of boat
but it’s the best place to test things out Reasons 1. Boating facility for recovery 2. Grass free lake Title: Re: New RC boat Post by: anwar on February 21, 2012, 08:26:01 PM :thumbsup:
[Admin Note] Split out from "RC People", and moved into the "Boats" board. Title: Re: New RC boat Post by: Swapnil on February 21, 2012, 08:28:02 PM So do you stay around? And when are you planning to do the next test?

Good speed as well... Collet.. every boat makers pain... Why dont you get a standard brass coupler machined. easier than actually making a collet. Shreekant Title: Re: New RC boat Post by: Gokul ravindran on April 28, 2012, 10:29:50 PM {:)} :thumbsup:
