If you have a plain 4 channel remote, purchase a V Tail mixture separately, connect motors to ch. 1 & 2 through V Tail.
attaching couple of line diagrams with and without V Tail mixture.
Note: while connecting 2 ESCs (disable BEC wire (red one) of any one ESC.

There is no much difference between diag. 1 & 2 but diag.2 is easy to operate.

guys, can u help me with the painting, will the oil paint hold on fiberglass, i had already applied a primer coat, n some filler,  :help:

Sb_Maharana

Oil paint  :headscratch: I mean enamel paint. no problem when applied on FG, to make the surface more sticky, sand the surface with 180 or higher emery paper with water.

Please post a link to the ESC that you have used and (in case I've missed it) what is your motor + prop combo?

where is everybody in Boat section... anyways I need a help. I have brass rod for railing , but could'nt glue, can u gys help me with this

RumblePirate

Better than Vaseline, I think clear silicone grease should work better at water proofing..
It's more viscous though, so a little more resistance expected

Rest u can try n see how well it performs

Anyway good innovative DIY boat mate 👍
