We Went Back In Time To Make Our Boat Go Faster... 

Sure and thanks for the feedback.

@@TechIngredients Hi, I'm wondering if you'd consider looking at some kind of Laser Rust Remover as a possible DIY project. Take a look at something like this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ACGSzBXKONo.html I've read that such devices can even work effectively with 50W or 100W lasers, and given their obvious utility for so many things, I was wondering if such devices can even be made as a DIY project.

Nice.

Me too, so I went back and watched all the videos I haven't yet.

Sad. Feel sorry for you.

Comment of the day Sir.

There is so much to learn from this man.

Pay close attention, if the world ends soon this stuff'll be handy. There's a book called Con Nuestros Propios Esfuerzos that is also very useful in "the world ended but we still have buildings" type situations.

@@Teth47 but why would the world end though?

Get wet

Haha same thing 😂

its brobably enough for the gasoline propultion but when he puts on a sail all the power will be needed because there are a few effects that can happen i have expierienced one of them in german it is called "sonnenschuss" this effect happens when wind and wave and current hit the boat at an exact angel and then there is a huge force on the rudder it often even breaks it even on larger yachts so i think the arm is good as it is.

I was thinking the same thing and honestly he can have a variety of sizes to suit his propulsion methods longer arm for sailing shorter for engine or electric.

I think what he meant to say is a lot of force, not a lot of power. That being said. I would shorten the arm.

well he could install another axel on the arm further in so the actuator could be connected on either, but then I think he never wants to turn the boot on the spot either :-)

@@snekmeseht yes that is what i ment

Not necessarily, at high speed, a gentle touch is what you need, you definitely do not want the rudder to act as a major braking system and loss of control if moved too quickly.

@@ericdelevinquiere9902 For sailing boats you absolutely want that capability. It's the only real braking maneuver you get with that. Dunno what it's called in English though But sailing's not high speed, so your point still stands

@@ilikeyourname4807 Sailing is not high speed? Similar to this boat, think of a high performance beach catamaran, scary fast, now add foils, you would smoke this boat. Let's not even talk about ice boats. And yes, just a minor adjustment of the helm and they turn like a Formula 1.

Just make a clamp with a screw upwards and u could adjust the leverage and test it out...

If they find they need or want faster response, it is just a matter of bringing the pivot on the lever arm of the rudder closer to the rudder pivot.

That's what I was thinking! And what if you run out of battery power and you still have gas for the engine? Then your boat is uncontrollable! Or what if you lose an actuator due to a failure, then you have no backup if you're out in the middle of a big lake, for instance. A pulley system would be something to think about adding as a reliable backup or as a replacement for the actuators altogether.

Battery could be charged from the motor if it has a charging or lighting generator? but a smaller lead cell battery or gel cell battery may give more battery life? worst case a paddle can be used for steering :P Also if he wants a faster movement of the rudders a shorter throw lever on the rudder can accomplish that, just saying.

@@nyxkeres8597 Well in this case the motor does not have electrical output, seeing as it's a swamp motor. If you would want to charge your battery from the motor you'd need to install a generator on it. And as this motor does not have an accessory gear box, you'd need some construction to build it onto the driveshaft, in between the propeller and the motor output shaft, which would be a pretty difficult task. Not to mention the added weight on a supposedly lightweight catamaran ;)

The boat will be quite slow, so there’s no need for fast response 👍

Electric actuators don’t give tactile feedback to the pilot. Its gonna be harder to “feel” the boat.

millennials are like 30-35

If you aspire to be "cool", move to the Artic, that should satisfy you. 🏔️

under sail you could get stuck "in irons" the large dead zone catamarans have pointing into the wind.

Mike Clarke it might make an interesting video! My uneducated guess is they'll need very little movement in the rudders to steer at top speed.

Yeah I'd like to see how this pans out. I had a similar actuator on a power wheels truck and it was terrible. The worst part is it locks the steering, so if you want to manually override you have to disconnect it.

Way too slow. There is also no feedback whatsoever.

@@firstmkb Yes, the faster you go the less rudder deflection required. But the response time on this system will be very slow. Without feedback you will have to respond after you start veering off course, then you will have to straighten the rudder before you get back on course to ovoid overshooting (which will be nearly impossible). They will be endlessly chasing a straight course. I predict that they will remove the linear actuators and replace with a proper tiller system using push-pull rods and a tiller, like a typical beach cat uses. It would be equally easy to set up and break down as the linear actuators, and infinitely more appropriate for a vessel that should be able to achieve more than a couple knots of speed.

May end up shorting the steering arm as an iterative step.

03:06 annoying plosive. Do you need someone to do an audio post-production? I can handle that ofir.gaash@gmail.com

I suggest they cut the song out, throw up a quick logo and call it a day. I don't come here for the music.

Couldn't get a minute into it, damn shame too.

Yeah, speech volume is OK but music volume should be brought down to match.

Like in every video on the internet or on tv. Why is everyone doing this? Just turn the damn music down pls!

They've got to get it up to 88 mph first.

@@outputcoupler7819 - Marty got a push from a train on land. - on water a helping hand from aliens...ehm.. the swamp-gas

@@outputcoupler7819 Actually they have to live at 88 Moscow road & yes moscow also=88. Doesn't anyone actually know what 88 is from, geez louise this simulation so many built in blind spot programs. Look up HAUHET & HEH who is also called KEK the frog guy from Egypt it's why people talk about Q & QA.... If only people could read hieroglyphs lol oh well maybe in the next run of the simulation you'll improve.

@@johnmastroligulano7401 Well...that was certainly not the expected response. Are you a rogue chatbot or just off your meds?

@@outputcoupler7819 Perfect example thank you hence the fake name & image which=fear this is understandable like your quick diversion to personal ad hominem lol classic tropes along with the reverse psychology like Russia gate or the deep state is after me or the media is fake which of course it is that doesn't make them all not part of the same act. No I don't watch wrestling thinking it's real either but hey you do you right .

MEMS are crazy stuff, better to buy something in my opinion. Once done with all these other projects lol, i would definetly love more of the Dessicant AC series (perhaps make more modular + contanerized, diy fans, etc) !

i would like to see something liek a full body bio suit. something...sifi ish!

​@@ericlotze7724 It sure seems complex with Digital Micromirror Devices, but if it is at all feasible to make DIY project, then it is something on the level of Tech Ingredients team. :)

There is no synchronization mechanism, but they can be resyncronized by pushing them to either end stop.

had the question as well. Also, i think that returning the rudders to neutral position is going to be a challenge... all that seems like a very uncontrollable boat.

Thanks!

We can increase that speed with voltage and by trading force for speed. We'll see.

@@TechIngredients you mean we'll sea

I'm wondering what happens to the motors when they inevitably get soaked...

Too soon

Lasse Lyx - good look

If you mean loud...

It is actually a HDD disk platter with the read/write head. This is what it looks like with the case removed. It is interesting what different people see when they are all looking at the same thing eh?

It's a hard drive. I don't think a record would be a very appropriate icon for this channel, do you? Also, it's "vinyl".

What's interesting is that hard disk technology has changed enough that spinning drives aren't necessarily what people think of anymore when you say hard disk. Everyone understands the meaning of the save icon used in most programs, but a whole generation has been born since 3.5" floppy disks were in common use.

@@peglor Floppy disks and this are two different things. Being born after something doesn't mean anything. Wanting to gain knowledge does. Every computer sold nowadays has HDD's in them. Unless you pay extra for a SSD.

@@flexopuppy If you consider phones and tablets to be computers, which I do given that they are, then solid state memory is already in more common use by more people than spinning HDDs. On most laptops at this stage unless you only look at very low end ones, you get an SSD by default even on the bottom of the range. Bigger/gaming laptops sometimes still have a spinning disk for long term and high volume storage, but boot from SSD. Datacentres are probably the last big hold out for spinning drives, and even those, depending on the cost/benefit data are moving to solid state drives. What I find more interesting is the storage methods that were used really early in the development of computers - this is a particularly unusual example: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2BIx2x-Q2fE.html&ab_channel=Numberphile

yeah I'm a few seconds in and the just music insanely loud

Yeah, in agreement, loud even for my getting deaf ears.

I have some dynamic headphones and wow that was loud at the start. Far too loud. Made me flinch.

Yeah, the music was too loud

we all know what this is about. there's no useful information in the wasteful first long 6 seconds. i vote for exorcism of the aggression so as to enjoy the meal part right away. OR PEASE REMOVE THE SOUND TRACK OF STRESS during those 6 seconds for peace.

Indeed, but it is also good to say as most people don't even know the conversion.

I can convert knots to MPH, but it won't metric in my head. I get as far as 3.6 kiloseconds per hour, then I find something else I'd rather be doing.

I am tempted to slide in parsecs, but there are too many decimals.

@@TechIngredients @Kevin Bauer @wobbly sauce I humbly suggest we follow protocol; we should go back to fundamental units, such as the ones used to express how much 'ux' is in a Flux Capacitor: knot-second-mole per coulomb-meter^2-ounce 🤔🙄😏😂😂😂

Problem solved :P

wHAT????? WHAAAAAAT?? I CANT HEAR YOU!

Yes, it's fun to jam out to. But the talking portion needs to match a little closer.

I wish more video players had Dynamic Range Compression. It's great for bringing the sounds together on the same "level". I know the vlc player can do this.

Yeah, I have to agree. The intro music was too loud, coming from another YT video I got blasted. Then once the intro was over I had to turn up the volume to understand him better.

🤙🏼

You're welcome!
