A airboat is the simplest most practical application of a model engine.
Everyone should have a couple
Yes to that. My first one was a cigar box with a scow nose and a Cox .049. Single channel escapment bang bang "rudder' and Lorenz 61 gas tube RX.
Current one is Dumas Big Swamp Buggy, 2 channel 75 MKHz Futaba wheel Tx, K&B 40 wirh Semco "muffler". I think I will try a .61 on it next.
Great fun at Float Fun Flys, and on the snow and wet grass also.
Sincerely,
Richard
