Summary

This is a mini tug boat I'm currently making for fun.

I was originally inspired by PeterSripol's Utility Tug boat and tried to build my own,
Since I don't have much experience in this I decided to make it smaller.
But It turns out to be a little bit short and fat, so I name it as the "TinyBoy".

I'm currently printing the hull sections and will update the progress

Dimensions:
500mm(L)x165mm(w)x202mm(h)
All parts are under 200mmx200mm200mm Print Volume

Parts Required:
3mm diameter shaft, length:150mm x 2
8mm diameter shaft sleeve, length: 100mm x 2
A2212 brushless motor x 2
32mm diameter 3 blade prop x 2
3.17mm to 3mm shaft connector x 2

And parts need for RC, ESCs, Batter, transmitter, receiver, etc.

Update:
2020-03-01:
section01, 02 and 03 all printed and begin to glue them together. Also, the improved version is being designed, it will share the same hull shape with the current version. Will support prop size up to 50mm in diameter.
Made some modification to the motor mount, making it easy to install it on to the hull, previously it was too tide.
2020-03-02:
All hull sections glued and did a simple leak test.
2020-03-03:
Basic electronic stuff ready, stand by for a water test.
2020-03-07:
First Field Test, the hull needs 1~1.2kg of weight to get to the waterline.

Deck sections printed,GlueGlueGlue, messy proxy~~~~
2020-03-13:
All Major Parts printed will do a quick assembly and put this boy into the water for a drive!
2020-03-14:
The first trial finished, everything is good except it gets a bit wet out there.
At this point, I consider this project finished, all left is adding more equips to it,
like FPV and telemetry radio, etc

To be honest, there is a lot of mistakes in the process of design and making this boat, but anyway, it was a really fun ride!
