The best I can do is a spare air pump from my aquarium. At least it is aquatic based.

Coming soon to Kayo – Frog Sports. hope you remember your friends when you are famous kermit. Or maybe a new science channel to disprove all we have been taught..

[Admin]

Oh Mr kermit what a legen you are

Ihave but one question

How come the arrow is facing in the opposite direction from which it was fired from.

Me thinks you need to get your props organised a bit better, overall a mighty fine effort I could not have landed the golf ball into the boat site un seen.

What was all the puffing sound effects for are you that unfit or was it for special effects knowing that people would comment.

But as your dedicated 2ic It is my duty to support you no matter what the cause maybe

love love love the effort my little green friend

Cheers for now MR MOOSE

Uncle G

Nothing to do but play with toys

What a great build  like the colour scheme looks to good to run in the bush and climb mountains

Be good to see you soon keep up the good work

Mr Moose

[Admin]

can hardly wait

It will be great to see and talk to all the gang once again

Hope my little green lord and master see’s this

[Admin]

Thanks.

[Admin]

Thanks, missed that. Absolute credit to you.

[Admin]

Very impressive Uncle G, look forward to the video.

New this would end up a history post, found one of the items awaiting (long time) electronics.

Oh well there is a problem here, seems I did not clean the release agent off the plastic enough before painting, oh well a couple of times around the track and the paint would be half off anyway.

Kermit, I am not sure a kiss from a beautiful Princess would work in your case, you may have to delve deep into the witchcraft black book of spells for a more powerful spell breaker. Anyway not sure you would want to change from a frog, you seem to enjoy your role in life as you are. It must have been a dilemma that when, obeying social distancing, you were sailing by yourself on your dam, how did you comes to grips with the fact you were actually winning the race but at the same time coming last where you fee most comfortable.

Thanks Pred (Uncle G), it is already a brushless system and I installed a 120A ESC. It has only had one run which you have seen and the seawater inside would have kept everything cool. I was only running on 2S and when I got it out of water all I was more worried about was getting the water out of the hull not checking temperatures. For realistic running 2S is ample and even with that 1/2  to 3/4 throttle would be all that is required and I dont think over heating on that would be a problem. But I have seen this running up to 6S so water cooling will be needed if I ever try going up the cell range. For the moment I just need to do some maintenance and sort the electronics so it can be relaunched without having to rush things like its initial run. The lake where I have sailed is small and has ducks and fish so not really suitable for anything but low speed electric.

Pred the choice of sealer was purely on what was open on the bench at the time. It is one of a number of tins I picked up when Masters closed, to be put in the you never know might need it pile. The cost was nothing compared to what I could walk into Bunnings and get at the time. If it went off no real loss. I used it 6 months ago for a job and it was still sitting on the bench (not really a surprise there) so opened it up and it was good to go. As you know not many of my craft will suffer from UV damage, They have to see the light for that to happen, it has sealed the wood and we will see what happens in the future.

Unfortunately all my reports will be mainly be a look back in history as I have only bought two craft in the last few years that I can remember, the rest go back to up to 11 years ago, oh well it will keep me amused. While the cost of replacement has gone up to different degrees (most of mine aren’t in production anymore) they are only worth what someone is prepared to pay, from what I have seen not much but I don’t intend to sell anything.

Look forward to more Mt Gay build updates.

Kermit, I did post a video of the Princess getting drowned, will take some more photos when I strip it down and rebuild. One of the things I have to check out is the cooling water flow which did not seem to be working very well but when I used a syringe to inject water into the outlet the water was flowing sort of. Might try drilling out the rudder pickup.

Just one kiss would do that????

While rearranging the mess on the bench came across a box of ESC’s, now just have to remember what I bought them for or was it one of those might need sometimes buy which my finger is prone to do.

HI Mike!   The politics have been obvious for months so don’t worry about being drawn in.    Brilliant song!  (Don’t inject Lysol!)  Cheers. Ian

 

[Admin]

AH  Mr Frog a great effort only have one comment could you clean the lens next time as I could not believe what I saw as for the music loved it

I notice the Bad angle has not commented yet he might be preparing something to compete.

To Bad Angel

No matter what you do you won’t beat Kermit’s effort especially the beautiful music and background effects took him weeks to train the dog

[Admin]

 

That was a very entertaining video, Kermit!  I think in these virus-ridden times we need plenty of fun stuff! Liked the music too!  Well done, my faithful friend!    Your president in abeyance, Ian RI
