check the pitch on the largest prop. you need to accelerate some water to get any thrust.

DONE!!!!
successful in all rounds 'cept having a hard time keeping boat straight because there were filters going on in the pool so there're whirlpools in some areas

u-turn ... didn't do it 'cause microcontroller wasn't set when started!!!
s-turn...good stuff!!!

however, it was really eiffy though since most of it was guess-timate.. .. and go with whatever feels right and program the microcontroller.

ah well, it's done. it went awesome.

thanks guys for all the feedbacks given for this thread!
i'll post some pictures of cool boat design later on
16 days to design and build boat...
need some sleep now
