Which ones work?

Thanks for your comment. It's hard to include every detail about a project. To answer your questions it took nearly 2 months to complete. Roughly 40 hours of printing, sanding, applying filler, sanding again, priming, gluing and then adding the electronics. The cost is hard to say but it was cheap (for me). The most expensive item was the 9 volt battery. Basically its one dollar if your not buying a printer, filament, epoxy and the tools I used. If you plan on building this plane and you have none of those things, yes, its more like a $500 dollar plane for the first one you make. Then the second one will cost nothing

@@westrestoration1221 Thanks for the reply and update. Not dead certain that I would agree with your costings though. But I'm sure that, when you decide to give up making your excellent models, there is a stellar career waiting for you in a Government Finance Department. 😉😊

@@theoztreecrasher2647 Haha😒 Yes there are some semantics about what I said. However, I dont think its totally wrong to look at it from that perspective. YT has analytics that I need to look at. To be completely honest "$1" in a title has a lot of weight to it. I did also say in the title that the build is "more work than its worth" which is true. Regardless, thanks for keeping me honest!

How would you suggest the leveling be done? The only thing I did was repeat what the instructions in the manual. Then show them on video. I should also mention that I have been using it for many months now. I have never had a problem. Also, I have leveled many PLA printers and its similar.. And, also I have never had a problem.

Thanks so much! Ya, I had some problems with the assembly lamo. I tend to hold the pieces too hard and they will spontaneously explode. But, the hardest part was painting everything separate. I wanted each piece to look good and then have it come together so there was no part unpainted. What was your experience? Seems like you have a Helbrute story of your own

I agree. What I said there was not thought out. The disclaimer is to not use my fix for commercial/re-sell fixes. Just personal use.. Thanks for pointing that out

i just bought one for $149.99

That is a creative solution! I am happy to report that I use this same Ipod all the time, because of the form factor, and it has held up great. This is my most disliked video by far.. I feel like I should do an update video on it to show its condition a year later.

@@westrestoration1221 ipods are a big deal now, because of all the hipsters. I only just discovered dankpods, but watch his videos over and over. Celebriting these tine capsules will never get old for me. Not only that, but there are still undiscovered issues waiting to be discovered and fixed.

Of course, the file is in the description. I cannot print this model at 100% so I put it down to 40% and was able to fit most of the parts. I had to print 3 parts separately. Thank you for asking!

Practicing with FDM is great! That where I started as all. I dont know how much an 8K printer will solve layer lines, as I do not have one. I think that layer lines have more to do with layer height than the capability of the printers accuracy. Please let me know your findings

Yes, that is a great question! I did prime it and I was also checking every time I put parts together and added epoxy. Making sure that the passage was clear from one tube, into the heat chamber and out the other side. Thanks for the question. Let me know if you try it, I would like to hear your experience!

I appreciate your input for getting more power out of the existing motor. Since posting this video I have taken the car apart and found that it was already using a 3:1 reduction on the motors. My plan was to make it much faster, like a snow-cross type vehicle. Thanks for the information about making the current motor more efficient. I have already started on a 3S brushless conversion. Thanks for the message!

It's great, thanks for asking! I have had a lot of amazing prints so far. A lot of people made it seem like resin printing was going to be a huge undertaking and a lot of work. My experience has been fine and I am around 15 prints without a complaint! Please, let me know how your experience is

Yes, you are right, that is what counts. If you have something you want working, you can fix it and enjoy it again. I appreciate your kind words and it's my pleasure to make videos. Thank you as well for watching!

Glad to hear it! The fix is not always simple but it feels good to take something someone had given up on and transform it into a working game system. Good for you! Thanks for watching the video I made as well! I truly appreciate your comment and especially sharing your story

Thank you for the support! It really does help with motivation for the channel

Yes, the STL is still available on the website. This is the direct site location www.thingiverse.com/thing:2249781 . Although if you want to search yourself it is called Jetboat by georgdoll on the Thingiverse Website. If you can spend some cash I would really recommend buying the prop shaft, prop and motor shaft union. Good luck with your project! Let me know if I can help in any other way!

Thanks man love the boat
