Twin-Engine Speed Boatby Sunny2008-07-20~23 |
It is a very cheap self-made motor boat. It cost less than 8 bucks, and it gave me a lot of fun. I used lots of recycled materials for this boat. It only took me few hours to finish it. I tried it in a local lake. It is on the water, and moving smoothly. The speed is ok, same with ducks'. I called it Twin-Engine "Speed" Boat. I think, for a long term project, I can make a remote control for this boat, so that I don't need to tie a string on it, and pull it back, like flying a kite. Anyway, share some photos with you, and the bad quality video at the end.
