just a start of a rowing boat challenge sorry for the mishaps but the last one worked this is a test rig to see if i can make one 😀😀 lest hope it do not go 😭😭

been thinking over the last days of powering the oars moving the oar to the end of the shaft or powering both oars from a single shaft on the centre line or combine both so oars to end powered by a single shaft more to follow

test rig with servo

well what can i say it sort of works with a bit of fiddling lets see

then the crew arrived ! ! ! !

now the sides have been added waiting for the glue to dry

then to trim down to size

sides trim'd down varnished 4 coats
Monday is on the water test so hopefully all will be well will post video work or fail it will be show'n

only managed to get a 4 second film it worked

now looking at running 2 servos on continuous rotating but having trouble sinking them (Glug glug glug!😁😉😎) any help out there i am using 2 x 9g servos, so the row boat can turn ????

parts waiting to arrive all the way from china then i can get on with the build 🤞😁

had a few hours this afternoon so started in the drive meck for the ores still a bit more to do with this as waiting on some bits from china

just a little more on the meck but one side will have to be removable to fit drive belt when the worst happens
