Screwed down lid and 150mm shaft motor mounts for - 3D Printed RC Brushless Speed Boat

thingiverse

I printed the wonderful RC boat provided by Mr. Chew that his friend had designed, but I was having an issue with the Cover for the main body flying off due to the speed, I decided it would be nice to have a lid that is a bit stronger, and is held on with Screws. I'm going to be using some custom knob headed screws to attach the lid to my boat, and installing some threaded inserts into my existing printed hull however if you print the hull sections I provided, that are completely un-modified with the exception of the screw holes, then you can have the screws thread themselves. I also made the cover a bit thicker and added an extra lip on the inside to add rigidity and allow for a better seal. it's my intention to make the hull (almost) Air tight. I'm going to be using some mastic tape to provide a seal, as it's sticky and stays very soft in this alabama heat, but should provide a nice malleable sealing surface that is removable. ----------------------------------------------------------- I Also have uploaded some remixed motor mounts that are slightly shorter and will sit up against the front bulkhead to accomodate a 150mm shaft as i found that to be a more available size rather thant he 130mm variante called for in the original design. This is the shaft I am using https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07RJC94GJ?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details This coupler https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0782Z3S8H?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details Along with this Motor https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00PXVWFQS?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details This receiver https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0863V913F?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details and this servo for steering https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B088BP7355?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details F.Y.I. - You will need to use all the other components and instructions provided with the original model.
