Thank you! I have been very busy with producing boat orders, and I also put priority on the Shrimp rigger builds, because these are Christmas gifts for some of my good friends 😎
Hi Jan, are you going to add flooded chamber to this model? I think it will be great addition to to this baby. Plus chamber wall will play role of additional longinal stiffness
@CozyRC also I was thinking that a flotation chamber on the right side would also be a good idea. It could be even printed with some infill (or just a mesh as part of design)
@@CozyRC yep. Flooded chamber on the left, and closed flotation chamber on the right. So there will be no need to add styrofoam or pool noodles to avoid sinking
Thanks! The rudder length is a real good question. There's no rule that I know of, but the rudder has to be in the water at least a few cm. For this small boat, a 75mm rudder works great.
@RRRude1 This 3D printed version is from NoMatterdesign, and I assumed it uses the same servo. I didn't realize that the servo in the parts list doesn't fit in this boat! Or at least, it doesn't fit the default bracket. I would make a custom bracket to use the bigger servo. I will ask the designer of this 3D version to make a bigger servo bracket, so it fits the servo from the parts list.
According to printable website were he posted the STL he said “ This model was teste printed in PLA and PETG, with the best results achieved in PLA, 0.4 nozzle and 0.2mm layers.”
The fact that he said he plans to seal the hull with epoxy means the material doesn’t really matter. Personally I would use PETG but once the coatings go on and this hull hits the cold water it should fair fine even with PLA.
SIR U R GREAT.THANKS THANKS .LV U 3000 FROM INDIA
Thank you! 😎
Great video. When is the sequel?

Really nice ❤

This 3D version is not my design. However, I'm working on a new Mini Mono, the M500. I will add the option for a flood chamber 😎

You mean 1 chamber, but on the right side?
@@CozyRC yep. Flooded chamber on the left, and closed flotation chamber on the right. So there will be no need to add styrofoam or pool noodles to avoid sinking
I think adding foam in the bow section is the easier way! You need some room for the steering servo as well
Supernice. how do you detrmine the leght of a rudder for a boat???

Hi i am building the boat now all looks good but the servo you recomended does not fit in the mount do you another stl file ?

@@CozyRC Thanks for the reply.i will use the bigger servo and try to draw one in Fusion 360
looks tidy!
Thanks! 😎✌️
Maybe a bit heavy? How heavy is the wooden version?
Maybe it is, yes. But it should be no issue. The wooden version weighs about 875 grams ready to run with a 2200mAh 3S lipo.
Which type of plastic is it

@@k.o.0 thank you
First view😊
Congrats 😄
Ill never understand people glassing printed hulls lmao just print thicker walls
It's all about mechanical strength and stiffness. A glass or carbon weave will give way more strength-to-weight than a thicker plastic wall.
And also protect from soaking. Pla tend to soak with water.
