    Poor James can't manufacture Rockets, luckily in Portugal nobody cares
  • From my old model rocketry experience, while you want the CG ahead of the CP, you don't want it too far ahead or else the rocket will tip into cross-air currents (e.g., wind) excessively. The rule of thumb was CG ahead of CP by the diameter of the rocket, Anyway, love your channel and content. Keep it up!!
  • Nice to see you continuing with your submarine project here. I'd never thought of rocket submarines, though.
  • Angle the outer edges of the sponsons, this will help prevent the rolling over. I used to race gas rc hydroplanes. This was a trick to get them to turn fast without rolling over.
  • Two things I would like to to see you trying: how slow can you fly a plane, and a project like the Nemeth Parasol. That was a very curious concept.
  • What a beautiful place the UK can be. If it were a pond or lake similar to this in Texas you may find all types of trash and fishing worm containers laying around.
  • You should definitely light a bunch of those at a pool party... If you are accepting the fact they are probably never gonna invite you again.
  • You could try making the planing surfaces tapered so that they become thinner as the boat lifts out of the water so that it is less jumpy because it appears your getting an oscillation that increases until it torpedos
  • @wakjagner
    Fun idea. With the reaction time requirements of these things (they sure don't wait about), maybe you'd be better off with some sort of IMU based active stabilization/control than a strict RC?
  • When do you start building rockets for SpaceX?
  • @kalpgarg
    Make a HUGE orange one that is rc controlled
  • Good to see Donald Campbell, Leo Villa and the Norris brothers got the design right 👌
  • @Willj461
    been waiting for this one! Awesome project I feel like some sort of thrust vectoring system on a larger scale model could help with stability and be really fun to design and make. Just an idea.
  • Love your vids, but this was the most fun I’ve had watching and it looks like the most fun you’ve had making a video. Well done!
  • I have an unopened packet of Rapier L-4 motors from the good old days of making free flight planes, I think I've just been inspired! Thumbs up.
  • Not sure if something like an insta360 go is on the budget, but i think one of them attatched to the boats would make great footage :)
  • Fantastique! Il y a de quoi étudier dans ce domaine! Les propulseurs ont juste la puissance qu'il faut pour le gabari de l'engin. La stabilité a haute vitesse n'est pas facile a obtenir et c'est très intéressant a étudier !
  • so you honestly ASK us if you should make a much bigger version of a rocket motor powered and radiocontrolled boat? like what do you think people say? "oh please no save us from another boring video!" ??? lol. of course you will make a bigger version of that. 🤣
  • I love the inventive nature of your videos, shows you how simple it can be to create some great toys with a little knowledge and a creative mind. Great video - keep them coming!
