Default RE: Unofficial "NQD" Tear into Jetboat Thread

ah I see, I thought by bioengineering that you were referring to atomizing the water changing its molecular structure in the jet or something lol.

I have a few things i want to test on this little unit :

Litres per min to measure volume. - was thinking of making a tray to feed 10l of water into the jet and measuring the time taken to pump the water.

And force - Headhunter - exactly what i was thinking using the wife's kitchen scales

once I have a baseline for both, I can do some mods and quantify them. - they may be worse, may be better, least though you can measure and compare

on *****g the jet out - feeding it more power may have increased RPM , but likely reduced torque.. would be interesting to test a few diff KV motors with the above tests.



on the two radios, as long as they frequencies are separated by .100mhz it should be fine. that said I would use a toroid (choke) on the esc lead from the RX.

I have a 6ch radio from my heli that could be used to control an adjustable screen to cover some of the intake. im not going to wast time on this little boat doing that, but might order a big ass graupner #5 unit and build a jetsprint boat to suit.
