HMS Victory display model.
Brought another model a HMS Victory this is for display only on a shelf above my television, She was built by a good friend of mine who told me it took him quite a long time to build it, I can believe him as it is a beautiful model.

Hi. This is my 2nd scratch built boat since lock down began. The first was the H S L 103 finished 6/7 weeks ago. Still waiting to be tested outside of workshop. This one is built on a fibre glass hull,and has a length of 44 inches and a beam of 16. My power plant is twin out runner motors purple power. 600kv, running through twin 70 amp ESC and with 4 cell 5000 amp lipos feeding them. All accommodation is made using 6 mm three ply. And every fitting you see on the boat was scratch built by me. Lighting system is 12 v grain of wheat .props are three bladed brass 45 mm by prop shop

    Hi, I actually have a converted Skippy with an R&R model engineering WTC, your's looks massive. Looks like the linkages will be short and hard to get in.
    I attached a video showing my setup.

Steam Launch with Outboard Motor!!
A test post on behalf of redpmg.
The engines are built by a mate of his.
"The boats are built by a 90+ year old gent by the name of Alan Raubenheimer, who used to make Rose Pop Pop Boats - used to advertise in MB etc.
Now into his 90s he has finally given up production."
Here goes🤞

It woiks 😊; just ignore the 'Invalid file' notice and click the blue magnifying glass and then the download button.
Run with Windows Media Player.
When it opens Press F11 for full screen or drag a corner with the cursor to enlarge.
Resolution is not too good I'm afraid🤔
Despite the music the action takes place in SA not Hawaii!😉

PS 8.5.20. Video fixed and enhanced a little 😀😎

    Learn something every day. I have not heard of a model steam outboard before. Very nice little boat.

    Hi Doug, I finally figured out how to open this - it was well worth persevering with, this has a real feel good factor especially with the music and I like his R/C, and a steam outboard engine - brilliant.

Airboat mods, changed to twin rudders
Changed from the single rudder to twin rudders (came up with a solution without going shopping) and have better steering now (probably too good😀) might need to reduce movement in the TX set-up. Will behave differently on the water as in the vid it's on a 30deg slope making it hard to steer, plus the slippery plastic strapped to the hull. Does good donuts though!😁

    Looks like you’re having fun!! Airboats are tricky little beasts aren’t they? I have a little Hobbyking Swamp Dawg which is okay, but in windy weather she’s all over the place.

    Hi Cash, lots of fun, and hopefully we are allowed out next week (lockdown to level 3 from 4)
    so might be able to do some drifting with a bit more space on the big sports grounds.😁 Bit confined in my yard due to full size boats, trailers, trees etc, too much to hit😁
