TSATS: Speedboat

[dfs473]

Hello people

Here is the final entry topic for the Eurobricks Contest "To Sail the Technic sea".

It is a red Lego Technic speedboat, which can swim.

The two bodies of the Lego City 7244 speedboat were the base and I build a Lego Technic connection between them.

Here it is:

Front view

Side view

Propellor

Bottom ( attached two airtanks so that it lies a bit higher in the water)

The functions

1 M Motor for rotating the propellor

1 M Motor for steering

It is RC controlled via 1 IR reciever

Here are some pictures to see the inside of the boat:

And here is a short video to see it in action

Hope you like it^^

But she isn't speed :( Do you tried to improve drive? Gears and lift reduce the efficiency of propeller unfortunetly

The speed is impaired by your choice of this tiny, inefficient propeller. You should try this: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=2952
