Another Gas Airboat Build!

Ozpulse created the topic: Another Gas Airboat Build!

Ok so I am building this as well at the moment, on top of everything else!lol
Thought I had better put this up here for you guys too!
Thats almost one project for each voice in my head now, maybe they will leave me alone for a while?
I wanted a better design/looking airboat hull for down on the sandflats.
45"long x 17"ride surface, drop deck with a cut back centre. More of an airfoil profile, Cad up a plan and away we go!
Some pics of the build so far.






Awwwww! Your little engine is sooooo cute!

Not sure whether to keep the winglets on the rear or not yet?

Hi Oz,
That is so cool. Just one question Oz, how much time in your day do you have left over for little luxuries? You know like eating, sleeping, potty training etc. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Thanks for the compliments guys! ;)

I thought you would have built one of these by now Isuzudude, given how much rc aircraft gear you have. all you would need is the hull.

Moofy, I dont understand your question?? :blink:
What is this sleep.... and this eat you speak of??
As for potty training, not to worry.
Extra large nappies can take a lot of abuse! :woohoo:

Checking the radio box setup/fitting before glassing the inside.
