RC-Boat-Design

Built 2 RC boats ( 1 Deep V Planing Hull with rudder drive+ 1 Catamaran Hull with differential drive) and also did Literature survey and implementation of Naval engineering concepts for RC Boat Design speed and control optimization .

Led and managed a team of 7 other people and worked into making a RC boat to represent Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) in Rowboatics Techfest , the RC boat competition in the technical fest of IIT Bombay .

Please refer to the following pdfs uploaded to this repository for the details of the boats :

Care has been taken to include discussion upon

  • Structural Aspects such as Hull Types and parameters - focussing mainly upon Catamaran and Deep V hulls
  • Physical Aspects such as Weight Balancing , Torque Balancing etc
  • Material Aspects covering material properties of used materials
  • Braking System , both Hydraulic and Reverse Thrusting Based braking
  • Propellor Design , including effect of Ducts and blade size , pitch , rake etc
  • Hydrodynamic aspects and effects of special structures such as Vortex generators , Bubble Generators , Guides , Hydrofoils
  • Electronics part , including choice of transmitter , receiver , ESC (Electronic Speed Control) and BLDC motors

The CAD Models have also been uploaded in this repository for further reference of reader .
