Built an RC Airboat for timepass

Build Log Pics

Frame and side/bottom skins from 4 mm and 2 mm Sunboard

Contd.

Used cling wrap and silicon RTV sealant to make a seal for the hatch

Going to put the ESC & Rx in waterproof boxes

Waiting for a Rx so I can maiden it. There were many large (like 1000 sq. metre, up to 0.5 m deep) rain water puddles on our flying field, unfortunately they have dried and there is thick growth of weeds now

Beautiful Build sir,
for maiden...

sir, did u print the stickers and paste it ?

Thanks Swizera. Yes, they are stickers. The top skin is biofoam, and although I gave a base coat of Enamel (Oil) paint, even then the spray can paint attacked the foam. So, to cover up the khaddas I used stickers

What is that material sir and where did you buy it from,like exactly the location and price and name,
Thanks

PS - Amazing build sir,

Top skin is biofoam from Sitaram, South Ex 1. Rest is Sunboard, from any sign board maker

  very nice sir 

i have many receivers spare though 

Anand-bhai

Get a bigggg empty suitcase, and come to Delhi 

Absolutely stunning build Sire. This mouse from Guwahati is ready to dance to the tunes of the Pied Piper. Lead on...................................

A small request - a picture of the underside showing the stepped hull would be appreciated.

Thank you VC sir

Will take a pic later today and upload it

Nice one Sir, when is the maiden!!!

Thank you Christopher.

Maybe next weekend 

The bottom of the hull of the Pied Piper

The stepped hull is visible. Why would the designer (Alex T) use a stepped hull?

1. Aerodynamically superior
2. Creates lift
3. He had only that width of raw material available 

What is your guess?

Thanks Sire. Creates lift, I guess.
