Fan Powered R/C Airboat

I’m pretty sure electric ducted fans are not the ideal choice of RC power system for an RC race boat, but it certainly was interesting to learn about them. We found out the 4s battery used to power this one wasn't able to supply the the EDF's demand, meaning the power dropped off. Key takeaways:
1 - This RC hydroplane design remained super stable, which is great
2 - The 3D printed parts worked very well
3 - I'll be returning to a motor/prop combo on the next boat
Thanks for watching this one, more projects coming soon!
