Building The Worlds Fastest Electric Paddleboard

Daniel Riley's R/C cars have been testing how far they can go. His new paddleboard project poses a different question: how fast?

"Building The Worlds Fastest Electric Paddleboard," posted on November 5, has reached roughly 388,000 views. It arrives as rctestflight draws about 424,000 views across the channel in a day, five times its usual pace. The title sets out the ambition, rather than establishing a verified speed record.

The change of subject gives Riley's long-distance car experiment some company. His recent builds have included a miniature center-pivot lawnmower and an R/C hydrofoil sailboat, so a powered paddleboard fits a workshop where neither land nor water gets the same machine twice.

There is an older connection, too: Riley's archive includes both an R/C hydrofoil and a hydrofoil ground-effect vehicle. The paddleboard brings him back to water, with speed taking the billing this time instead of the mileage target that has occupied his miniature cars.
