  • I am installing 3d printed jetdrive upgrades for the diy electric surfboard.After the design and 3d printing of these jetdrive parts using the creality ender 3 v3 ke 3d printer and onshape it is time to install them into this electric powered surfboard as part of a testing period and hopfully an all round better result to achieve more power from the water jets. i am creating an all carbon fibre jetsurf style surfboard with twin jetdrive units and lipo batteries for the power.
    Thanks The Waysider.

    Your board construction is amazing, quality and finish is probably the best I have seen. However I think the drive unit needs a little work. You are right about the ESCs they are easy to burn out and expensive. The absolute best are mgm-controllers but are very expensive. I have used Flier ESCs which have been OK but still burnout, I think ZTW are probably similar so watch the cooling. I now have Trampaboards vesc ESC, very controllable, well made and they have real people who answer the phone and will repair.
    These boards use a lot of power and you will soon find that you need to make a Lithium-Ion battery pack. Samsung 40T 21700 is a good cell.
    For the efficiency of these Jets the guide fins on the nozzle are as important as the impeller, yours look as though they are straight. As the water comes out of the impellor it is spinning and these fins need to straighten the flow so they need to be curved to do this. Best jets if you can afford them mhz-watercraft.
    Please do not take this as any criticism, I would love to have the skill to make such a great board. Such a premium board deserves great drive unit. Really looking forward to seeing it on the water.

      I totally agree and thanks for your input, the Venturi fins do have a slight offset to them but I might have to make them more angled in the future. The cells you mentioned I have looked at and will go for making a battery one day but was going on what I saw other UA-camrs doing as a starting point. Hey it's all part of the fun in the end. The upcoming video highlights the esc problem even more so will have to change them whatever happens. Much appreciated.👍

      @@thewaysider7774 I know how much time and money it takes to get these projects working so well done and looking forward to seeing any more videos. Just one other idea, I had the same issue with fixing the impellor onto the shaft and got in touch with Loctite. They recommended LOCTITE 480 as it doesn’t degrade plastics and is used to attach gears to shafts. It is quite expensive but you use very little and is incredibly strong without pinning, worked for me anyway.

    Очень интересно смотреть. Выглядит как з завода. Интересно какой уже вес у доски. У меня процесс изготовления доски с бензиновым двигателем остановился на этапе формирования корпуса доски. Лайк для поддержки канала!

      Hi thanks very much the board is 16 kg fully loaded so it's easy to walk down the river with, that was one of the main objectives from the start.👍
