  • Homemade surfboard with an open propeller longtail motor ,pretty dangerous but totally awesome if you don't fall off! Big thanks to my dad and Shaun for filming. This video took awhile to put out as I upgraded cameras editing software and computer to make better videos hope you enjoy it

    Heya bro Merry Christmas and all the best for the New Year! Good ta see ya finally got moving on the boat board!! long tail was pretty spot on aye!? heaps of fun! maybe a improvised jet unit on the end instead of the prop of death? hahaha or a rim driven propeller? they look pretty fun!

      ​@@DktheWelder These two engines should generate about 4 hp (together) use an impeller of 64mm diameter by 64mm pitch. Expect speeds close to 24 km/h depending on total weight.

    that was excellent, if I owned one I think I would have a strong lanyard with a handle attached to the bows it would give me more feeling of balance and control, especially in a chop, but Bro that looked like fun,

    • @DktheWelder
      @DktheWelder  Год назад

      I was thinking of doing that actually, the handle on the motor actually gives good support I got a bit more confidence towards the end and could turn much harder be pulling myself against the board

    Do you think a 125cc pit bike engine could work with a jet impeller?

      I weigh 80kg. Thinking of buying a jet impeller (80mm) from MHZ Watercraft in Germany, then coupling it to a 125cc pit bike engine since it's a bit flatter.
      Any idea top speed I can achieve?
      Thx.

  • @luizroberto6915
    @luizroberto6915 Год назад

    It's so danger, but you can bypass governor and use a propeller 5.5x9.58 or 5.25x 10.08 and the propeller spins 5010 rpm (half propeller out of the water and near limit to float valvues). Sorry for my bad english.

    • @DktheWelder
      @DktheWelder  Год назад

      Yes it has a lot more speed in it! The governor is slowing it down a bit, how do you know those propeller measurements? And where do I find them?

    • @luizroberto6915
      @luizroberto6915 Год назад

      ​@@DktheWelderYou have a 3D printer to print a mold and then cast it in aluminum. Use a cad program to design the propeller. Or try using carbon fiber to reinforce the propeller that was printed. There is a formula [(Power(HP)^.2 *632.7)/rpm^.6]= Bore (in inches). If your propeller works half out of the water (2^.412)=1.3305 or 5010/1.3305= 3765.5 , 3765.5^.6= 139.7956, (8^.2)*632.7=958.99, 958.99/139.7956=6.86 (propeller diameter ) . for every 1/2 inch decreased in diameter equals 1 inch in pitch, 6.86 - 5.25 = 1.61, 1.61 x 2 = 3.22, 3.22 + 6.86 = 10.08 . Of course, other factors influenced the result, but these parameters serve as a basis.

      I have tried that , it makes I way less efficient like about half as fast and the weeds get in the guard instead of getting chopped up

  • @DatBlueHusky
    @DatBlueHusky Год назад

    you should be able to get those 2000w brushless motors for gokarts they sell as kits and make it work with the long tail, then for battries maybe buy those 12v lifepo4 ones

    • @DktheWelder
      @DktheWelder  Год назад

      Yeah there is a 56112 motor I think would work well they are about 10hp I could make a small short tail setup and maybe put it on a paddle board. I think I would use 18650 cells though just so it goes for longer

      @DatBlueHusky Год назад

      @@DktheWelder if you use those 100ah 12v battries they sell, it would be easier to run and way more capacity unless you can get tons of 18650's in bulk, a welder, bms and lots of time to build it

    Can you turn the board by just leaning? I was wondering if you could fix the longtail straight and ride it like a real surfboard using a hand throttle.

    • @DktheWelder
      @DktheWelder  Год назад +1

      Yes it does turn by leaning but the long shaft holds it straight, it could be fixed with a shorter shaft

      Or a chain driven drop shaft right behind the board. I love watching your crazy ideas come to life. I wish I had access to machine tools like you do.
