New outboard

[F1 madness]

Well here you have it,been working on it for some time with a friend of mine who does C.A.D.
Weve designed it to be able to run 540+ motors,with 12* angle adjustment,12mm height adjust,will be used with 3/16 flexi & stub shaft so a variety of props can be used,and be able to run upto 60mm props.
As you will notice the motor mount is at an angle,this is to releive some of the friction on the flexi and the teflon liner.
Im planning on having these done in cast alloy.we are just about to have the first 1 done in carbon poly plastic.theirs just 1 adjust to make before getting the 1st 1,and that to make the steering ears a little wider for more leverage and less stress on the servo.




What you reckon

Very nice!

[bigpapa]

cheers guys,im planning on testing 2 of these on my twin outboard cat,with scorpion out runners,cant wait to get the 1st prototype back.

..From the drawing smells me Autodesk Inventor or Solidworks ......


Good to see the great work....i expect future releases......
If you have access to rapid prototyping machinery yould make the mold in the blink of an eye......



congratulaitons for the work..expect to see it ......real..

Pass my mate does the cad,i can just about send messages and post pics LOL
If i get enough interest then may decide to produce them forsale.
Again my mate sorting out the the 1st model and moulds as hes in the know.
I just designed on paper and gave him all the dimentions needed,i spent weeks reseaching and trying to design somthing to cope with bigger brushless & bigger props.
Im testing the first 2 using HK40 series scorpion outrunners so should be interesting to see how they handle it

is it gonna be machined alum. or molded plastc- or cast alum?

the first 1 is carbon poly,then will be molded for cast alloy

[DPeterson]

I like it. Very cool.

I am planning to do a 4S 34" tunnel in the near future with a true open power motor.

Was going to start to hunt down a 7.5 size Lawless. This looks like a better choice.

When you are ready to produce some please let me know.

Unless you are going to redesign the bushing and prop shaft for the better, I suggest using a current stubs and bushings availible. Like the HyperPerformace one. Its one less part to make.

By the way its quite nice looking.

[F1 madness]

Cheers guys.
Alrite steve was going to pm later.
Also weve been looking at ceramic,sealed bearings and a longer stub shaft to mount the larger hubs on the bigger props.
Also there will be 2 water pick ups 1 for motor and 1 for ESC,but this will be an order choice depending on what your going to be running.

love the green fe-1 boat

Sharpen the bottom of the vin to avoid lift ?

[sailr]

It would seem to me that with some of the thin elements of the unit that casting may produce some very weak points?

You may have a winner on your hands if it works out and you can sell it for a reasonable price! Regardless of its future, it sure is pretty!
