Aeromarine Team Believer with updated hatch build. Special

I can remove every single thing on it leaving only the aluminum rails. I think it's less stressful on the hull being epoxied in though.

I'll agree on the epoxy vs bolt in

[dasboata]

you can get the epoxy off also with some heat and a thin knife. I myself would have used all wood, the aluminium will be loud and will not absorb vibration like wood, would JMO

We could all use those thermal switches and the indicator lights. That's slick with or without the pump. Not sure you could see it on the way by though. How do they look in the bright sun?

I always wanted to use a CPU radiator and mount it so that air passed over the fins to super cool the incoming water. No point on a small boat but on a scale it could make sense. Stuff the radiator under the turbine or something.

Nice build sir.

I used aluminum mainly because it will absorb heat from the engine and esc. I'm not sure on the noise but the more the better :)

Thanks Davis

The water line plumbing turned out pretty good. I don't have the motor plumbed to the pump, I'm waiting to see the motor temps before I buy another check valve to make that happen. I found these cool sticky back zip tie anchors .

Update : I just finished moving about a month ago and it took a month to move, now it's dirt bike season ! Can't wait to get going on this again !

Not really. Lol.

I been busy riding dirt bikes.

I did some work on the steering. 5" 4/40 titanium turn buckle with HD ball joints. The aluminum tube is a press in thread fitting with the threads drilled away, should work good for my glove fingers I use for a boot seal.I will just silicone it in place as it is a nice snug fit right now and so I can remove it if I need to take off hardware .image.jpgimage.jpg

For some reason this boat makes 8000mah packs look small.image.jpg

Ok I thought about it for a while and going to do a 3p setup. The big 56mm motor and mounting system is putting the cg forward and I needed more weight back . I think 24,000mah should be plenty of run time. I know 56mm is big for a 36" cat but it is a big 36". It's the shortest 56mm highest kv I could find and I'm hoping the bigger size and higher pole count will convert more of the amps into torque with better efficientcy . I will do the maiden with 4s but I'm guessing to make things exciting I will need 5s.image.jpgimage.jpg
