Dodgy Dodge

Okay I will do that.
Thanks for the advice.

 

You've made incredible progress. I'm really impressed and your building skills.


For Ballasting I've found these weights to be convenient

Troubleshooting some electrical problems.............

 

What are your electrical problems?

 

I'm not sure, I think some soldering died.

 

Your motors, servos, esc, receiver?

 

I don't know yet. I have narrowed it down to either receiver or esc. I think its just a soldering problem.

 

You have some great photos of the exterior of the boat. Would it be possible to get some interior photos? What are the dimensions?

 

Yeah wait a second...

 

Something’s soldered to your receiver? If you have a servo tester try plugging that into your esc instead of the receiver to narrow it down. If you don’t have one I recommend picking one up. There pretty cheap.

 

Just some plugs that were soldered on

 

Plugs for what?

 

battery esc etc..

 

Don’t have much time, will post more later
The dodge is just shy of 2 feet

 

You soldered your battery and esc onto your receiver?

 

*facepalm*
I'll show you later

 

This is a fully 3d printed ship. Includes all mounting for motors pumps, servos, water channeling designed in. I'll try to do a write-up and post it with the .STL files.

This is based on a a ferry that ran from Ireland to Iceland as a.troop transport in WWII called the St. Claire.

Since all transport ships in WWCC get the same speed, her small size and quick turning make her a difficult target.

 

You have skills Jeff very impressive

 

I have to agree, the transport is perfect and everything is thought out.

 

OK, I did a quick writeup and zipped all of the .STL files into a resource called "R.M.S. St Claire". Build one for yourself... she's relatively quick to put together and has proven to be very competitive in WWCC battles.
