Musical Fountain Boat

Inspired by the spectacular Bellagio Fountains of Las Vegas I thought it would be an interesting challenge to build a radio controlled boat that could fire jets of water in the air in time to music...
This model, the Bellagio Ukraine was the result!
The water valves are controlled by a Picaxe microprocessor which takes its musical timing from a second Picaxe microprocessor. A selection of tunes can be selected by radio control and just for fun a water canon on the bow can be gimballed to soak any tempting target.
It's just a bit of fun - daft and very underwhelming after you have seen the original Bellagio Fountains, but once I thought of it, I had to build it!
The colours and the name are a nod to the good people of Ukraine who are in our thoughts at this time.
