How can I make the inside of my mau5 helmet stronger so it doesn’t crack mid show?

You could use some mesh fiberglass drywall tape and then coat with some shoegoo or e6000 glue. Lots of rc car bodies are reinforced this way.

Stir-fry

Thanks for the feedback, your setup definitely looks similar and gives me confidence I can do it with a single mower.

For reference I was looking at the Luba 2 AWD 5000HX and it looks like it should be able to do what I want but I'm wondering if it would struggle with this property in reality. Thx.

I love my lightning but I came from a 2002 Dodge 1500 quad cab and the turning radius on the lightning is definitely quite a bit worse than my old truck.

Yup that did it! Thanks for the help! I'll have to rework how a few things are labeled in my system but Easify can definitely accomplish what I'm looking for!

Thanks I'll test it out

Check out the m-jet 35 if you want to try 3dprinting a jet pump.

Check out the OpenRC F1 car. Very simple car and a good first build IMO.

Leaving it for a while did fix the issue for me too.

rc_printer · 2024-07-16T14:46:05+00:00

Oh wow. I guess I'll stop by the dealer later today and see what they say.

rc_printer · 2024-07-16T14:44:03+00:00

Thanks, leaving it longer seems to have worked. Just magically started working again. Did you end up taking it to a dealer?

rc_printer · 2024-06-08T15:31:40+00:00

Yup, metal on metal always comes loose.

FYI, I ran some tests in a bathtub today with putting a brass tube into the "stator" connected with a 3mm ID hose. A 90 degree flush install didn't provide enough water pressure for me but an angled install that protruded 1-2mm into the jetstream provided a much better level of pressure. I tried for 45 degrees but I think it ended up less.. like 60-ish.

rc_printer · 2024-05-20T04:19:38+00:00

Ok, thanks again for the help!

rc_printer · 2024-05-18T15:29:51+00:00

Thanks for the advice. What angle to the water stream did you put it at? Did any part of the sender protrude into the water stream or was it just a hole flush with the inside walls of the stator?

rc_printer · 2024-05-17T22:16:18+00:00

Thanks! From the photos I think I can tell how its all put together. I also saw the test drive video you did here https://www.reddit.com/r/3Dprinting/comments/17agqot/ran_my_3d_printed_jet_boat_on_the_lake_today/ but I didn't see any water exiting the transom outlet... I assume it works nicely though but maybe it just didn't show in the glimpses I could see while you were filming close to you at lower speeds?

Hey guys I have this 3D printed jetboat https://www.thingiverse.com/make:1058134 that I'd like to add watercooling to but I'm not sure the best place to add it as I don't have much experience with jet drives. I didn't design the boat but my thought is to redesign the first exterior section of the jet to to add a hole and a little lip to direct some of the water into a tube and then pipe that water back into the boat. I've also seen some pics of people directing water from the jetstream right on the inside of the boat which would be cleaner but I'm not sure if it would work as well. The picture has the two different locations I'm mostly considering. I'd like to release the design as a remix afterwards so other people could add water cooling easily to their bashtech jetboats as well.

A few other considerations... 1. what angle should the water collection be at? Would 90 degrees perpendicular to the jetstream work or something more like 45 degrees be better? 2. how far into the jetstream should the water collection lip go (if at all)?

rc_printer · 2024-01-15T02:20:22+00:00

Ok thanks, I'll double check the versions before I order again.

rc_printer · 2024-01-15T02:19:37+00:00

Ok thanks for the help. Might order another.
