Description
This is a 54mm jet drive that can be used for an RC boat. I used two of them for an electric surfboard. I designed these jet pumps because I couldn't find anything that met my needs. I hope they are of use to someone who is looking for a complete system as well.
I used dual 420kv motors but I found I didn't get enough speed as my surfboard was a bit too wide, so depending on your application you could go with higher kv motors,
If you do try to make these I'd love to see a pic of the project you use them in.
Included is a parts list document to help you with assembly.

Some people have had issues downloading the files, I also posted it to Cults https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/water-jet-pump-jet-drive-54mm-pump-jet?utm_source=cults_like_mailer&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=creator_notification

Notes:
For the main pump body, print speed was 40mm/s, print flange side down on the print bed. Heated bed is a must to keep it from warping and pulling away from the bed. Once past 1/4 of the print, the heated bed can be shut off.
