I cut the inside with a jigsaw and the outside with bandsaw, first the inside cutting an filling, than the outside on the bandsaw, this way it’s strong and won’t bend when handling

Hi thanks
Cut them from 1mm aluminium sheet with bandsaw and jigsaw and filing yes 😂
Yes wil try to make the frame from aluminium, also have 0,3mm thick that is so thin you can cut it with knife, maybe I wil use that for cockpit screen

Hi, the frames ar 1mm thick alluminium.
But it went wrong with glueing the. Windows not the frames.
Have to repaint now, it’s a learning experience 🙄🤔😂
But canopy glue will do the trick you think

Update, I am using now tin/silver 97/3 with griffon universal flux. Works a charm!
The XG281 is verry expensive and did not work as well as this

Between projects build something fun.
Found a cheap Graupner GTX-820 with a broken mount. And 2 months later a cheap new in the box Elba line F1 witch is perfect match with the GTX.
Always wanted a Gulf branded boat so that’s wat is had to be 😛

This summer mostly solving technical difficulties.
Replaced the prop shaft for a 4mm flex shaft, with 40cm it was to long and made lot of vibration.
Tried different motors, now got 3670 1550KV with 40mm 3 blade prop and runs great with good speed,
Also made water cooling with 2 micro pumps.
After al technical problems the build is progressing again 😎
Dekking finished and made side pods,

Hello, drive shaft is both side balbearings, I am running 4s with 35mm prop, esc is 70A. Test in bathtub with amp meter is not running above 25/30A then it’s not cutting. Only On open water, I think it’s more a problem with receiver interruption.

Update: after repainting 2 times in last 3 months, the lesson learnt is that perfection is a utopia.
It is wat it is, now installing the basic hardware to do some testing kn the water.
