VERSION 2 IS OUT: https://www.youmagine.com/designs/prototye-3d-printed-jetsprint-jet-boat-v2 Forum thread: https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?3061106 A personal project I've been working on. Posting here since there aren't many 3D printed jetboat designs out there. lijingwei made one too. He's also made some improvements. You can find these here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2890756/remixes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mYeioW3AUQ My boat's maiden outing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3IDdorSQlc Specs: - Impeller: 29mm with 29mm pitch (18-29mm pitch files included) - Nozzle: 22mm - Hull length: 430mm - Hull width: ~165mm - 9g servo for steering - mounting points for optional reverse bucket and servo - Assembled mass: 1308kg Power system: - 3674 brushless inrunner motor @1900KV. 61A max. Max power 1800w. - 2x 2200mAh batteries, 25C. - 120A watercooled ESC Credit for the included axial jet drive calculation spreadsheet, goes to RCgroups member UnusualRC. UPDATE: I've been notified there is a mistake in one of the formulas on the sheet. Please be aware of that. TODO: - Get video of it at top speed with CoG moved foward running at 6S then retest DONE: - Test boat with 6S configuration. boat is _way_ overpowered which is great fun. SO fast. Gets a lot of air. IN PROGRESS - Make next version with bigger hull - calculations were incorrect and hull sat far deeper in the water than calculations indicated - Improve lid to be more water tight on next version. Other side notes: - batteries, esc and motor all stayed stone cold in 3S mode running at full speed. Motor is wayyy oversized for this boat. - It nowhere near uses the full power available to it running at 3S.

Hallo, könnte ich von dem Deckel eine original f3d Datei bekommen, da die Abmessungen nicht passen? Danke Grüße Franz

Can you split the lid in half?

I recommend using ABS slurry to join the parts if you printed them in ABS. ABS slurry is made by dissolving ABS filament in acetone. If you're using PLA, superglue works very well. A good superglue will bond the parts no problems. I find if you use a 'kicker' (its a glue activator) it joins even stronger.

HI Have printed 2/3 of hull and it is looking nice. (Congatulations) Just wondering how the sections are best joined together.

@BeniniD, I've uploaded a version that has a thicker eyelet and thicker walls everywhere. Hope this helps.

thank you I have a bit of trouble printing the external propulsion unit. the semi sphere is very thin, and with abs it is fragile. I advise you to enlarge the walls externally and reinforce the eyelets. today I try a petg print, I update you! grazie ho un po di problemi a stampare il gruppo esterno di propulsione . la semi sfera è molto sottile , e con abs risulta fragile . ti consiglio di ingrossare esternamente le pareti e rinforzare gli occhielli . oggi provo una stampa in petg , ti aggiorno!

Thanks! Yes I've just uploaded the STL file for the lid. It doesn't seal very well but it should be ok if you use a soft foam strip. The next version of the design will have a much better lid since this the surface is flat. It is much easier to design a lid for it: https://i.imgur.com/QHB7cP0.png I haven't made much progress on it lately since university has been really busy and other things have been soaking up a lot of time. If you ever want any other files just let me know and I'll upload them :-) I look forward to seeing your boat go!

hello Jotham B I wanted to compliment you on the project. I'm printing the hull, aware of the problems you've encountered. would you load the lid file, so over the weekend I mold it and go to the lake to test it? thank you so much !
