CAD model of an rc boat made using onshape

Waiting on a reviewer. We'll let you know as soon as there's a decision.
Hello!
Please adjust the funding request to $47! That will be the cost of everything. We cannot fund pre-built parts such as the FlySky FS-i6 TX + RX, so you are going to need to fund that yourself.
I downloaded precise, detailed CAD models of my actual electronics from GrabCAD. I imported the exact dimensions of the motor, the LiPo battery, the servo, the receiver. I then meticulously mated them into the hull to ensure everything physically fits together.
Then I noticed that I can change the design of my boat and add a propeller in it so I designed this propeller and mounted in the motor. The motor is connected to the servo motor which will help to change the direction of the BOAT.
Heyo! Your project looks cool, but the money you requested does not match the final price in your BOM. Additionally, $192 for an RC is just not reasonable. You should try finding ways to lower the price and request the proper amount of funding, as you may get funding only once: top-ups are not intended for multiple phases.
finally finished the hull design using onshape. started with rectangle sketch on top plane, 6x6 inches with equal sides. added circles at corners and trimmed them for the bow shape - took a few tries bc the tangent relations were being picky. extruded to 2 inches and it looked like a real boat.
then I made a lid with offset for overhang and added a handle. lowkey proud of this model ngl.
