During the lockdown in March, I embarked on a thrilling project to design and build an RC boat from scratch, with a challenging goal of completing it within just 10 days. The USS Hibbard, a guided-missile destroyer designed by Glynn Guest, was the perfect choice for this project due to its relatively simple construction process. As an all-balsa build, the USS Hibbard offers an excellent balance between aesthetics and sailing performance, making it an ideal option for RC enthusiasts. For those interested in building their own USS Hibbard, the plans can be found on the Aerofred website at https://aerofred.com/details.php?image_id=92860. To expedite my build process, I designed and 3D printed various components, including functional parts like the motor mount, propeller, rudder, and rudder horn, as well as intricate superstructure details. A Tamiya 540 side-torque tuned brushed motor powered by a cheap ESC served as the primary power source for my RC boat. I utilized ABS plastic for all of my custom parts to ensure durability and long-lasting performance.
