    assulting your robot in the water is the equivalent to boston dynamics pushing their robots onto the ground over and over again haha
  • @MaxWithTheSax
    Can't decide if I am more impressed with the performance of the hydrofoil or the fact that the radiomaster survived.
  • 10:21 "Hope this remote is waterproof" says Daniel, as water sloshes around in the transparent casing lmao
  • @NicholasRehm
    Sick dude! I was surprised it could do those little jumps—you’ve got it dialed in so well
  • @MalteSpieltYT
    RCtestflight video for dinner, doesn't get better than that!

    From a wing-foiler and kite-foiler: That rear stabilizer looks absolutely huge. Maybe over half the area of the wing? We usually ride stabilizers around 1/6 to 1/8 of the area of the front wing, and that’s usually plenty of area for passive stabilization. You could probably get away with even less given you have active stabilization. All that extra stabilizer and the fuselage you need to support it really kills your efficiency, and even more so once you scale it up and start going faster.

    half the time i don't know what hes talking about, but 100% of the time i enjoy his vids.
  • @ahaveland
    Differential thrust is great, but if you lose a motor you'll regret not having a rudder!
  • @technobabble_
    I think you've really got something going here. This is a very exciting project. I also really enjoyed watching you remove and add different aspects of the design to see their effect and whether they're needed. I know simplicity is key to engineering but so is speed, fun, and responsiveness. I think if you get all of it to work full scale you'll have something extremely fun and easy to ride.

    Dude, cool build! Remember that Brennen Monorail train built back in the day? The inventor used gyroscopes to stabilise and it which made the train lean into the turn. That would totally stabilise your platform and solve your issues.
  • @PlaneAwesome
    The fit and finish of this assembly is just awesome. Integrated hinges, wire routing, carbon spars... Hell yeah!
  • @dreamburn1
    This is absolutely amazing. This is probably my favorite invention of yours yet.
  • @FarmerFpv
    You spoil us with the best videos on YouTube. I could watch you build and engineer stuff all day. Something calming about your videos. Don't ever change. This build is EPIC!
  • @Wind_Rapport
    Separate from all the FPV stuff I watch you are hands down my favorite channel. Always super interesting and well executed!
  • @levio1463
    I would like to see the ailerons being used as flaps to increase lift during take off, then leveling off for flight, and maybe even reflexing a bit to aid in high speed work. The foiling Americas Cup AC75 sailboats do a similar thing with flaps on their main foil. That is one thing ive noticed in all your hydrofoil stuff, is that they work really well at 1 speed, but dont like operating through a range of speeds.
  • @pauljs75
    Seems like experience with these things is kicking in at this point, given how well it's worked compared to some previous projects. Hopefully there's no scaling issues when you go finish the one you can ride on. Definitely nice to see things go smooth for a change.

    You should try pressure sensors underwater instead of sonar above water, should help with waves and ripples
