*WIP*
Remix of "RC Shovelnose Hydroplane" parts.
Needed a performance style rudder for a 29" catamaran. Not many to choose from in my searches. User "svenny" seems to have the basics down for his hydro. I needed a longer rudder and a thinner aspect ratio, so I modified it in Blender.
I could be wrong because I didn't calculate the surface areas, but 4 intake holes seemed excessive so I blocked two off and eyeballed where the other 2 should be based on Speedmaster parts.
The blade needs supports. The lever needs a brim to make it stick because it's so little. The mount is a special animal. I found it needed a raft to get the bottom arm dimensionally correct on my Ender 3 V2.
The mount has been modified to fit my transom height of ~15 mm and 4 bolts seemed excessive so it is reduced to 2. This part will probably be redesigned a few times along with the corresponding mating feature of the blade.
Again, this is a Work In Progress. Nothing has been tested. It could fail ma
