RC Catamaran — V4

This is the fourth version of an RC catamaran I've been designing and building, experimenting with different hull shapes along the way. My first two designs suffered from porpoising, but things started looking promising by version 3. This fourth iteration is the result of a lot of design, building, scrapping, and re-testing — and I'm genuinely happy with how it turned out (and relieved to finally move on to the next project!).

Parts

All the mounting holes are ready to use and line up with the parts list below:

Using your own parts

If you'd rather run your own setup, I've included hole-free variants so you can drill to suit:

  • A transom without rudder, strut or water cooling holes

  • A stern without the stuffing tube hole or motor mount base

Design & testing

Want to see the trial and error that got this design here? Check out the build and testing video for this version and the one before it (which crashes into the wharf at high speed).
