she is also equipped with communication radio, and a radio beacon system, guidance for guidance in to a formation with other same scale ships..
an analog meter is provided to know battery state and RF field strength, to avoid any radio failiure, as she is designed for long range operation..

each and every sticks are cutomized, for spefific needs…a 12 volt 3 amps SLA battery powers the TX, while two 12 volt 7 Amps SLA battery powers the craft..

Hello Aquaplaner…………..A very impressive model……..Congratulations indeed!

How long did it take you to build your model?

I like the working crane and elevator and also the helicoptor action!

I also like very much, your home built radio system!

I feel very sure that the forum members would like to know more about your modelmaking history and general background, please……..You are a very skilled modeller

Regards……..Bob

Good morning Sir..thanks for the positive inspiring words..and happy to know that my works inspiring you all..

i took about 12 days to complete the model..took 12 days, because of the scraping out of putty…its a hard job, and too hard, as i am alone, and i am partially disabled due to a motor accident..if i was ok, i can finish this within 5 to 6 days..but happy that i managed to make 4 more crafts scaled in 1:35 and 1:28th scales..while putty dries..

and sure i will add all of my modeling works, needed stuffs, and my back ground..but i do not know where to post it..still reading all related topics…i will add all of my goodies, as BEC, ESC, for brushed and brushless, Electronic differentials, for twin motors and cars, can eliminate rudder, crane, winch and more..all made from handy things, and proved for years and proved in many competitions..i hope all may help you all a lots…still working on crafts..Sir..have a nice day..
