Hello! I also have airboat hobbies, but currently I have trouble with engines and propellers. Can you advise me about the engine, choose the engine is suitable, how many fan blades are suitable? Look forward to your help. Thank you
I live in Albuquerque New Mexico and i want to make a small boat like this to just cruise up and down the rio grande... Its not a very big or wide river here and its pretty shallow and the sand bars are constantly changing... I was just wondering... Is the largest gas motor that they sell at Harbor freight big enough? I believe its 750 cc..
Absolutely not. Harbor freight motors are what 22 horsepower? You're going to need a minimum of a Lycoming O360 to get this kind of performance... That's 180 horsepower.... If it were me I would be looking at a O540 six cylinder aircraft engine
@@erod4489 you don't want to buy it anyways in Ocala.... He even said it won't run dry ground with 94 horsepower on a VW.... You need to up your game to a four cylinder aircraft
How much do you have invested in this if you don’t mind me asking

Reducimos con poleas. gira 2500 rev por ahi (depende del tipo de eliz).
Cool boat but likes to slip a lot. Gotta be very proactive on the speed and throttle in a turn for sure.
It's a lot of fun sliding like that. But you have to look ahead and plan the maneuvers in advance.

The engine in this video is 94hp. Also aircraft engines are stupid expensive and require leaded avgas
