it worked well for me, hope it does for you too.

Thank you kind sir!

You are not wrong about the grease part. This seal process I did was after submerging the boat to detect where water was going in from and after this process there were no bubbles coming out from the boat when submerge underwater fully and rotating all round. Since then I only get very little droplets of water when the boat dives under.

Fuse does not prevent it from charging. check mosfet on circuit board.

made them out of a square shape plastic rod by using a Dremel cutting, sanding the shape and size required.

Mine is still holding up. Mainly use it for action camera, mobile phone and rarely use it for large item like DSLR.

Battery can be replaced with correct specs. Blue LED can be soldered on if still in working condition.

i do not think it is the same problem. you will not be able to use the machine if the fuse is blown. Try to check if the clearance of the vacuum hole is blocked with too much dirt and if so clean it.

@@hobby5746 Thnx. At first, I thought it is a problem with the battery, but it works and stops suddenly. I mean, it works less than a minute and stops. You know, it is not that slow shutdown, when the battery is weaker and weaker, the motor works slower and slower... no. It stops all of a sudden. I turn it off and turn it on and it works again, yes, less than the first time, but still... That's why I thought that it might be an issue with the thermal fuse. I mean it has lost its properties and now it is too sensitive to the warmth. Thanks anyway. If I do not find the problem I will give it a try changing the batteries... But this is totally another story.

@@grigoreciobanu7777 the symptom you describe sounds to me like there is either a stress somewhere in the machine which is likely the case whereby the suction hole is block and it auto turn off so the motor does not over strain and burn out. That is the reason why i asked you to check and try cleaning the vacuum inside out especially the suction hole area. There could also be dirt stuck in the motor which is also a possibility that disrupt it from spinning properly and creating heat and raising the voltage intake which might kick in the safety circuit also. to clean the motor you will need to remove it and use battery to run it and dip it into water in order to clean it. there are tutorial in youtube for cleaning brush motors. if that is not the problem then my next step would be taking a very close look at the chip board to see if there is anything gone bad.

Hey Grigore did you finally solve the problem out?? i have the exact same problem... what was it???

@@grigoreciobanu7777 I have the same problem. Any ideas?

It is best you try searching your local online stores or if you prefer any global stores like amazon, aliexpress and etc.

Thanks

Aliexpress

to get to the motor you need to remove all the screw around the rubber ring then( i cant remember correctly but try both methods) slowly pry the in-between open or twist open it is normally held on by plastic tabs. Careful not to break the tabs.

yes

snap a picture of the thermal specification and take it to your local electronic part shop and asked them for a part that can substitute it or just find something online which is close to the specification. Best to do some research on the different types of thermal fuse and usage as it will help you in selecting the proper type.

@@hobby5746 If I buy the battery does the fuse come with it?

@@georgechryssanthou4433 Sorry i am not sure but i do not think it will come with it, unless it is the battery with the entire circuit board. It would be much easier to snap a picture of the fuse and take it to your local electronic shop and have them suggest a replacement and just DIY.

You can get it at online stores but i got mine at a local electronic parts shop as i needed it urgent.

:)

:)

it is 1/2 inch not 3/4 inch, thank you for correcting but both size can be use depending on your need and preference. The boat that needs rescue is collected between the fork and pushed back to land.

👌👍😉

gracias

you need to make query with your seller.

i was having trouble turning the boat evenly, as i was doing this test i learn how to improve the turn and balance them.

​@@hobby5746 thats obvious. im asking what the behaviour and control with this mod? does it give any cons?

@@ИмяФамилия-и7ш7у i gain greater turn radius, do not seem to encounter any cons with this mod.

Glad you found this video helpful. Out from the box you should add grease to the shaft and transmission joints, this DIY cover is to prevent or contain grease splatter in the hull.

@@hobby5746 brilliant... Do you have a aluminum rudder on yours? I'd like to get one. Ideas?

@@jaredshowers1 yes i do(my aluminum rudder is 1 side intake, there are aluminum rudder with 2 side intake), i would suggest to use the aluminum rudder if you have upgraded the boat for speed and also note that the intake water from the aluminum rudder is not that good (makes no difference if you increase the size of the intake hole on the 1 side aluminum rudder), because of the intake hole position(you will not have this problem if the intake is on both sides of the rudder). the volume of water intake depends on the direction of the rudder(if the hole is away from the direction of the water flow obviously much less or no water will be going in). The original intake water is much more consistent. so if you do use the aluminum rudder use its intake water for cooling items which does not get hot easily and use the original intake for item that heats up and needs proper cooling. Lastly, because of what i said earlier about the one side intake on the aluminum rudder i mod mine to have 2 holes 1 each side so whichever direction it turns water will go in.

i use 5mm round led. I connect the led to the buzzer.

Totally agree you wasted your own time, try reading the description and do not blame others for wasting your time. Take responsibility over your own actions. you also might have gain something by asking politely instead you chose to make a fool of yourself.

DIY Mean Do It Yourself , and there's no "Tutorial" or "How to make" on the title :)

1. Yes 2. No 3. Never tried, as it is serve my needs

I added floats to mine, it is really a fun RC Plane to fly

@@hobby5746 what floats and where do I get them. I ordered the plane today!

@@scottfirman I DIY the floats

@@hobby5746 I thought so. I know Horizon does sell some mini floats that may work. I am going to get the dimensions

@@scottfirman do share ya vid

Thank you, i send like and subscribe to your channel also :)

Yes because FT012 and FT009 is the same design just one is brushed motor and the other is brushless

The main purpose of my unboxing video is for my purchase protection so i can make a complain to the seller should there be any defects. If you wish to see the product in action you can request politely and i will find time to make the video but since you are rude i wont be bothered to entertain at all as you seem smart enough to know how everything works. You have a nice day now and try not to fall any deeper into the stupidity hole for all to see by announcing it in the comments.

I have revive cell which were close to zero volts without problems. Revive cell will be in good working condition but less capacity for certain.

@@hobby5746 if it get to zero that mean it doesnt work ay more??

Your Welcome, I am glad you found them helpful. My FT012 have LVC and it was great on the first run but on the following runs problems came one after the other. I am lucky nothing melted, burned or it ended up resting at the bottom of the lake. Manage to located the problems and fix them one by one with almost no cost.

Do a maintenance check before you run it. Most important grease the prop shaft. Have fun boating :)

sorry for the late reply, where have you connected the led cable to? Its difficult to see in the video. Thank you

i connect them to the buzzer

I find it troublesome to do maintenance for the heat-shrink method but i have another method which also solves few other problems, I will upload soon to share with all. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Welcome

go ahead :)

if it can fit the pool noodle, i guess it would be ok but the worry is drag issue. There is a significant drag with this design. I have another design but have not started working on it yet to test how much drag is reduced. Once i have the time to do so I will upload it. You can have an idea of the performance for this design in this video bit.ly/2uofPG5

Thank you, glad you found it helpful.

Home depot do have 3/4 inch pvc pipe, maybe you could make query with them, as it might be momentarily out of stock when you last checked. I got most of my items from a giant rubbish bin of a house under renovation.

hi..... can u help me do 1 set...i have the ft012 .....i will pay u for the items... can? 98949090 whatapp me ok..

@@hwmate10projt40 This is a DIY project, i shared it so others interested to DIY built it may get some ideas, if you have any questions i will try my best to answer them.

You can try High Temp Marine Grease

Thanks

Thank you, glad you found it helpful.

Normal USB for charging the device battery, micro usb to use with the provided cable to connect to your mobile headphone jack (if you do not have Bluetooth)

yes the perspective is bad for the camera i use, takes awhile to get use to it. it would be better to use wider angle and better camera quality if you wish to have fun FPV. you can see the footage here ruclips.net/video/G_CW5Bf1aa8/видео.html

where did you buy it from?

eBay a while back. It's one of those buys when you buy something, then put it away. The day I got it out to use it on some watch parts, I filled it with water to the Max mark. Started it and about midway through I could see it wasn't cavitating anymore. I could smell a slight burning too, so switched it off and I took the 4 screws out of the bottom, removed the several screws that hold the stainless steel bathtub and disconnected the power plug. Then when I removed the stainless steel bowl I could see the soldered positive terminal on the transducer was blackened/burnt. On the base of the unit it states 50W 42kHz. During a search on eBay for a new transducer the only ones I could find were 35W 40Khz. So it effectively had 3.5 minutes of use from new and died. Nothing I can do now because I probably bought it over a year ago.

I was worried of facing such problems when i purchased it as i notice there are a few units with same design and similar model number from different various sites, uncertain if they are from the same manufacturer but am lucky mine still works as it should.

you mean manual focus?

I have not tested the long trim plates as I was happy with the results of the short trim plates. When you remove the original trim plates you will notice the screw holes protrude out, the spacer is to keep the surface flat so i can screw the DIY trim plates firmly on a flat surface. I hope you find this video helpful and you can improve your FT012 to your own satisfactory and maybe make a video and share the results. here is the video link to my testing of the trim plates: ruclips.net/video/siP6su2Wr4k/видео.html

I Have tested the long trim plates, it has drag but good in choppy waters

Had that idea but could not find the correct size :) besides this method did not cost me anything and i am turning junk into gold again :)

Thanks

i use electrical wire
