Default RE: Length of prop from the hull, what difference does it make?


ORIGINAL: tazmaniaboats

hello ron olson,
i,m interested in the theory earlier mentioned by you on the prop length and height
.i have a v hull that has the stinger bottom end exactly with the hulls bottom v edge and the boat is a bit crazy.
and i ,m thinking this is my problem.please can you give more info, thank you .
Try a book called "advanced rc boat modelling", the author is John Finch.

Some great advice in there on how to get the a boat going fast, and also on how to make a boat stable. If you get it you might just be able to stop your boat being a "bit crazy". If you want to.....

I got mine from Amazon, so still available, best 9 quid spent on boats yet.
