Re: Blue Robotics, Kickstarter!
A Thruster and ESC for just $120? Seems like a really nice deal. I have been looking into a cheap waterproof solution for some RC boats some friends and I want to make will likely end up totally sinking. This solution is half the price we want to pay and better than our current idea.

For those in this thread who deal with aquatics stuff, I am having trouble visualizing 5lbs of thrust. With a 10-15lb surface craft About 3' long, 9" wide, sitting 4" in the water, for a reasonable speed would I need 1 or 2 of these? It doesn't need to be zipping around, maybe 4-5'/s.
