    Thanks, in large part, to this channel, I drove 880 miles to WA to watch Sea Fair last year. I've always loved hydroplanes but thanks to this channel I got into radio controlled hydroplanes and decided I had to go see the real ones in person. It was an experience I'll never forget and one I hope to make an annual occurrence.

    On a real Race Boat, the Hydro dynamic Prop and Skid Fins are Razor sharp. So much so you need to handle the parts with kevlar gloves. Work on leading and trailing edges of both parts, to go fast....

    • @M5PerfHydros
      @M5PerfHydros  Месяц назад

      Some yes, some no. I've handled full size hydroplanes with near razor edged components (I've shed blood proving it) that were not competitive and I've handled boats with rounded leading edge components that were kicking tail. The reverse has been true also, so which is correct? I say both are. Submarines and racing sailboat keels are rounded in the front, not razor edged. Why is this? Likely because water likes to flow gradually around a shape and not get "kicked" around it. But in an area where we really do want to "kick" the water off a surface (props anyone?) we do sharpen the leading edge. Boats seem so simple, but yet there's so much to think about!

      Prop rotation makes gas boats turn right better, as we get into electric its not so important as they have L/H and R/H props ,

    • @M5PerfHydros
      @M5PerfHydros  7 месяцев назад

      Engine rotation. Full size hydroplane engines rotate clockwise causing the hull to rotate counterclockwise resulting in a lifting of the right side sponson. If the boats turned to the right they would tend to simply flop over in the turns. Most RC engines rotate counterclockwise lifting the left sponson, so we turn right.

    I was watching highlight videos of full size unlimited hydros, and came upon your video. A question came to mind. Is there a specific reason why the big boys(Unlimiteds)race counterclockwise but the R/C’s race clockwise? Or did it just happen to end up that way?

    • @M5PerfHydros
      @M5PerfHydros  3 месяца назад

      Good question! It's a motor rotation issue. For whatever reason r/c engines rotate counterclockwise instead of clockwise like full size hydroplane engines do. The counter rotating effect of the engine and prop tend to lift the left side sponson, and if we turned hard to the left the boats would tend to flop over to the right. So .. for the same reason big boats turn left, we have to turn right. I guess it's like you said; It just happened to end up that way! 🤣

      @@M5PerfHydros Thanks, I didn’t think of that. I remember way back when, when I was into ski boating with outboards, that the “cockpit” was usually on the starboard side to compensate for the rotation of the engine. Same when I switched to inboard/outboards.
