I will try to upload the instruction manual too. I won't bother uploading the blueprints cause they are in full scale

It's been four months, I'm getting impatient to see this on the water!

I know that I have been working on it for a long time but after finishing painting I 'll post its first time on water. (maybe in the bathtub

)

I am now working on a reduction gearbox because I am using a speed 700 BB turbo 12V motor which can rev up to 15000 RPM. If I don't use the gearbox I am going to burn the motor due to the big size of the prop.

Nice construction video, still waiting for the wet stuff!

it's coming. I decided that it would be nicer if I putted it for the first time in the pool instead of the tub. So I am waiting for the weather to get better.
