TailBlazer- Electric Fish/Boat Hybrid

Bill of Materials
Description
This is my entry for the Masters Challenge: Engines and I've definitely incorporated every skill I've mastered into this design.
The original design was made to promote the reuse of single-use disposable lithium-Ions!! I post a lot under #recyclevapes if interested.
I wanted everyone to enjoy this motor mechanism without risk so I made it a AAA design. This is a wacky approach to an environmentally-friendly boat propulsion design. It was pretty simple to think of- “what do fish do?” and its actually quite a smooth ride.
I've experimented with high RPM 13O Motors for nerf mods and 3s LIPOs and I got one of these to HAUL but I would recommend using normal electronics because the tail wags so quickly it can snap itself when out-of-water!**
It's pretty simple to assemble, no special hardware needed. Just use a simple 130 toy dc motor and 3x AAA Batteries…. really any 3-6 volt power supply usually works fine with these 130 motors.
I made an assembly video (coming soon) and I show how you can take one of these 130 motors out of a cheap bambu lab TT Motor (purchase bellow)
