RE: New project in fiberglass miss wlc-law
I still had not time to put my airboat in the water. I used the hint Mr Cajun Gator, put in order a bar from aluminium of 3/16 of thicknessX 1", and did a new rudder tuning to tip type knife.

RE: New boat
What are the dimensions of your airboat? Length, width and height and the weight without the electronics and engine.

RE: OS 25 powered Minikaze
[quote]ORIGINAL: Rowboat HI there M8 Looks like you have a great boat their. You have done a great job on the build M8. Those .25s can run quite hard and fast. You should get about 30mph from that hull and engine combo. Just a thought, the original copy boat ran with a water rudder. Your boat has an air rudder! The water rudder gives you more drag at the stern thus pushing the bow down. , allowing for fast straight line runs. Your boat might bounce around a bit, because of the air rudders not providing enough downward thrust at the bow. If this happens don't worry, just tilt the engine down a bit and your boat will run flat and fast. I know because I have built a boat very similar. Now you must show us some vids of this boat in action in the water [:D] [/quote] which is correct?

[quote]ORIGINAL: kieran3008 if your unsure, why not just whack a reat big one on it, and then ajust the end point so it is perfect for your style, f needs be you can aslways shorten it after! [/quote] I did not understand very well, is necessary to be more clearly, therefore my English is not very good. It is logical that any motor boat you can adjust cg, even for the angle of the rudder in the water, but what I want it is to know which cg of the original, and if possible to adjust optimum possible in the group of benches.

RE: New project in fiberglass miss wlc-law
[quote]ORIGINAL: Mr Cajun Gator looking good. 3/64'' is to thin for a rudder, better with 1/8 or 3/16 then tapering to a knife edge. What you have in mind for the hydro in the background? [/quote] Thank you for improving information on the rudder, tomorrow I'll look for aluminum 3 / 16 or 1 / 8, but I'm thinking about the possibility of making cloth and blanket of fiberglass with 1 / 8, is it possible? I have nothing in mind, just tried to copy with the greatest fidelity, looking at photos the original hovercraft. At the time I ride my .40, but I want to put a .61 engine, you have any suggestions?

New project in fiberglass miss wlc-law
Started a new construction inspired miss outlaw. The airboat will be made in fiberglass, but above all, the model will be built in foam that served as P3 mold.

[quote]ORIGINAL: asmithnc Not knowing the boat first hand I will give you the best starting point I can. A = At least 2'' in the water. B = 3/4 to 1'' Thickness of the blade 1/8. [/quote] Well, this boat is virtually a copy of the miss outlaw in size and placement of the rudder must be at least 2 "below the hull, has already taken any further questions.

RE: New project in fiberglass miss wlc-law
[quote]ORIGINAL: Mr Cajun Gator 3'' x 1'' would make for a good rudder size. What are you using for material? I would go with aluminum, I have not seen many have good luck with the factory rudders. May even check with Andy, he has been making some really nice rudders. [/quote] Thanks, I intend to use aluminum of 3/64" of thickness, but still I have doubt how much measure "e". I do not know if I leave with 1/2" , 3/4" or 1".

The top part had not any problem to go out from the mold and the same thing was intact. First I extended the rays and did not put 3 layers of the fiber and yes two layers and did not wait for the complete cure and withdrew of the mold after of 3 hours.
