| Hi guys, your boats look great, a specialy the double prop one.
I'm try to tune up my own scratchbuilt Hydrofoil. At the begining my twelve years old son made his own RC boat on the base of a 1/72 nd Revell MTB. The kit is only 12 inch long, so it has been quite a job to make it RC. unfortunatly the boat had an accident. The boy felt very sorry about it so i tried to mend it up. First as it was ruined, I had to recreate a super structure from scratch, then I've equiped it with a much more efficent motor, for greater speed. But when turning, the boat was kapsizeing, so I had an idea, I've fitted it with Foils. New problemes appeared. For the moment I'm going threw a certain amount of inproovements. I've fitteted the boat with a small Graupner Microspeed motor wich gives great velocity for a very light weight. I've refitted a micro plane receptor and a 10 A speed controler and two Nokia phone li-on Battery. the foils are made out of heli propellers. I'll thread photos of boat flying as soon as it's finished. For the moment, here are pictures of the genuin revell Kit and my scratch before fitting it with Foils.
Best regards to all of you.
