Yellow Boat 4 twin NQD jets driven by P2632 Brushless Outrunner 3800kv Brushless



Yellow Boat 4 





Twin NQD jets modified with brass stern tubes.

I have alternate nozzels which are a little larger than standard also.







Brass impellers made from cutdown brass props

Two P2632 Brushless Outrunner 3800kv Brushless


 
Stern Tubes brass shafts wrapped in PTFE tape until they fit the tubes. Will be setting up air cooling system with small EDF fan.

Will probably run two 2200mAh Lipos and 50 Amp aero ESCs with big heatsinks


For the cooling I may have the Arduino open and close a vent with a servo if the heatsinks get hot, as well as controlling the fan speed. 






Based on yellow boat plans different deck 390 Grams as shown 
Also Ply fiberglass epoxy catamaran build log

Glass and epoxy inside balsa ply, will epoxy the outside too. Its very strong with builders fiberglass tape and epoxy 



The motors will be mounted further forward on a cooled plate 














Spray rails are bamboo barbecue skewers and wood filler

Yellow boat 4 Arduino code with HK TR6 A V2 RX PPM interface


Im lowering the top BTW

The build here




The engineering in the boat the cooling fan circulates air blowing it out between the motors. This wee fan moves lots of air on 7.4 Volts






Arduino Inputs from RX

Ch3   Throttle                       Arduino pin 4
Ch1   Steering                       Arduino pin 5
Ch5   Throttle limit                Arduino pin 6
Ch2   Steering on Throttle       Arduino pin 7

Arduino analogue inputs

Anin 0  Ambient temp sensor                      Anin 1  Hall effect current sensor

Arduino outputs

Pin 8    Left jet
Pin 9    Right jet
Pin 10  Cooling fan speed
Pin 11  Steering

Mixing of the outputs

    
  //SteeringBias
  
  int SterringOnThrottle = (long)map((int)ch4v, 1500, 1100, 0, 1000); 
  
  if(SterringOnThrottle < 0) SterringOnThrottle = 0;
  
  SteeringBias = (long)map((int)ch3v - (int)ch3vWOZ, 0, 1000, 0, SterringOnThrottle); 
    
  int SteeringAngle = (long)map((int)ch3v, 1100, 1900, 1000, 2000);
  
  //Limit fan speed for 11.1 V
  FanSpeed = map(FanSpeed, 1100, 1900, 1000, 1500);
  
  //Update the outputs
   
  Servo1.writeMicroseconds((int)Throttle - (int)SteeringBias);
  
  Servo2.writeMicroseconds((int)Throttle + (int)SteeringBias);
     
  Servo3.writeMicroseconds((int)FanSpeed);
   
  Servo4.writeMicroseconds((int)SteeringAngle);


The cooling system



The fan is a 27 mm EDF should keep the air moving with a 10A ESC




There is a big heatsink and fan on the 30 AMp ESCs

Evo 2 http://kiwitricopter.blogspot.co.nz/2014/01/yellow-boat-4-revised-powertrain.html

Glass and epoxy inside balsa ply, will epoxy the outside too. Its very strong with builders fiberglass tape and epoxy 




The motors will be mounted further forward on a cooled plate 



















Spray rails are bamboo barbecue skewers and wood filler  















Will be powered with 2 of the following



P2632 Brushless Outrunner 3800kv
