Birth of a new Stuart D10

<< < (2/5) > >>

rhavrane:
Bonjour,
To avoid any vibration or friction which would disturb the operation, my friend Max has replaced the initial coupling by a TOC for the water feed pump :https://youtu.be/C5ATzAKX_Ww
Next step, accurate tuning (quite difficult to obtain on both sides) and steam test  :-))

rhavrane:
Bonjour,
Max, the friend who had the extreme kindness to make me this machine Stuart made it very tight and, after half an hour it is already untied.
At 30 psi it roars and turns like a clock to 15 or even 8 psi. Some details are still to be fixed before the boat can go on the water, but it is well born as you can see it : https://youtu.be/kFyBAtKFvXY                   

KNO3:
Seems to work very well. Can you post some pictures of the boat here?

rhavrane:
Bonjour Calin,
I am more familiar with videos than photos, but I will do several ones this afternoon for you, thank you for your interest  ok2

rhavrane:
Bonjour,
As suggested, photos of the tugboat : https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPkf0pyGba5SLzlAPyBaE4a38fnjF35MM6BigHtGh0OnkWXx8IGct1MbrBWEO3Odg?key=WU91QS1haTNNNXVFRGN2MFY3X2FPTVF0RUtwQUJB

I have yet to install a new gas regulator (the one offered leaks, not cool when it is gas  :(( )and modify the rudder cable command befor the endurance test... in the bathroom ok2
