Printed in PLA except for the motor mount, which is PETG.
Expect over 60 hours of printing to finish this. This is a fairly hard to build boat.
Hardware used:
"Brushless Motor Waterproof 3650 2300KV Brushless Motor with 60A ESC Combo Set for 1/10 RC Car Truck"
"4mm Drive Shaft w Propeller and Universal Joint for RC Boat" Use the 9.5mm OD tube version.
Standard servo
4channel surface radio
Shorty 2s 4600mah hardcase battery
about 1.5kg of wrapped pennies for weight
I used waterproof paint, rather poorly.
This motor combination is rather overpowered, see the video. A more normal motor would be a 540 crawler motor and 6v batteries.
200x250x200 is the minimum printer size for this model.
