And nice music, nice scenery… This video will probably not only speed up unfinished e-foil builds, but will undoubtedly inspire new e-foil builds to start.
@Dynamik Said it all: music, landscape, everything is top notch, even you Robert, you’re doing well now
Palmižana beach? 20 char
Aaaa u are in Istria. Nice spot enjoy your stay
In the event of a fall at over 30 km/h, the retaining plate on the ground was bent over by the water current. It broke when trying to bend it back. I found a replacement in the form of a 3mm CFK plate. This was dimensioned in such a way that the plate is flush with the underside of the inflatable. By the way, now it looks much more sexy.
good job! it’s an excellent battery pack.
Croatia
Woah u basically went to island Hvar. Half the time ferry needs. noice
Today after the overhaul of my efoil I put everything together and did a test run in the dry. An ugly noise came from the engine. I quickly had the suspicion that the bearings were defective, and that was the case. I hope I can get a replacement quickly so that I can start the season soon.
Hey,
would you be able to send me the files for this exact duct on the picture? (the one you shared has the gong fuselage thing on it, so i would really love to have fusion 360 file (or step)
Thank you so much, it saves a lot of time
Sorry, it is not printed.
It’s handmade. The printed one are quickly broken.
Really!?
Damn thats impressive, could you tell me more about the process, so I could make it myself?
Did you use mold and than hand laminate CF?
I used a plastic tube with a diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the propeller.
I laminated a few layers of CFRP over this. A little more at the front, less at the back.
The spokes are made of carbon, as is the hub. It’s all glued together with epoxy.
I’m using the winter to slightly improve my V1 & V2 Efoil. I’m specifically looking for a much stiffer mast. The Gong V1 mast tends to swing massively in the waves. Likewise, the long HA wings are almost impossible to drive with a Gong V1 mast. Attached are a few pictures of my new engine mounting system…
The gong V2 mast is a lot stiffer so that will serve you well. Apart from that i found the top plate slop is not a lot better on the V2 and this was (at least my) main issue with my gong V1 setup.
I wish they all could introduce a grip fit or conical interface for the top connections!
I have a core foil setup and also had slop in the top plate. I used epoxy to fix it and much much better feeling.
Wich Mastsystem are you using?
The 71cm kite version. Apparently the wing version is stiffer.
