Don't know that I'm convinced that little guy wouldn't be more accurately be called an 'Electric Micro'.
For the time and effort he must have in arriving at that end, I'm almost surprised he didn't try using
some relays to power those little DC motors backwards to arrive at having an airboat with reverse. :blackeye:
The hull looks to have been built to be reverse capable.
Maybe the required mirrors would have been to heavy since he doesn't have room to turn around?
Surely can't fault him for his ingenuity though.

A couple more motors on that thing and he'll need a water brake! :toothy7:
Seriously though it's just a matter of time before we see a upgraded version of one here. I have seriously considered the possibility and all the equipment and technology already exists so it's just a matter of putting it all together. Tho only thing stopping me from trying it is prior commitments and lack of money, (a serious lack of money). :banghead: Oh well, guess I'll leave to some of the younger folks to tackle that one. :thumbleft:
