Here is another project I have been working on since Oct 16, I dip in and out of this one as at over 1000 parts in the kit it's long build! Not to mention adding radio control!

Probably the best looking boat in the WW2 British Navy. I almost bought one of the plastic kits to convert to RC...but it all looked a bit fragile.

They are very popular for RC conversion, have tried to beef her up by replacing styrene with brass or wood where I can as weight is not an issue

Popped her in the pool to test the systems and she worked a treat.

One of these was my first R/C boat , the old matchbox version as a kid, great little models!
