I have not worked on this lately, but I am still interested in this project.
Would love to hear any updates on hydrofoil thruster projects.
I’m thinking that 1x or 2x T500 thrusters would be enough to get up on foil with a big front wing (I currently have an axis 1500cm3 carbon front wing).
Wondering how much pumping might be required?
Wondered about mounting. Love your idea Rich of a lower speed /higher torque motor mounted close to the top of the mast (that with some pumping should help get up on foil) then a faster one at the bottom near the wings to keep it flying…
Just a project I’m thinking for summer for those ‘no wind days’ and no wave days where it would be fun to foil without needing a tow from a boat/jetski…
