Friends..when i was a boy, one of the most inspired TV show..was..yes..the Super man..but among them, one was the..yes the episode from KNIGHT RIDER…so, as i started my model making seriously around 8, i completed many Knight Riders on wheels..but this is my new KNIGHT RIDER, on a hull…as a modeler, whats a collection without a classic Knight Rider..

it is equiped with all features..horn..infrared scanner..high power head lights..and she is awesome…in water…

i sarted as usual..with thermocol..(expanded polyterene). she is based on my imaginations, not from a plan..but surely inspired from FORD MUSTANG..one of my favourite car…

after finishing the hull, i test runed her..and added two led weights on the centerline..for added roll over stabilty..and worked well…

the prop was made from metal washers, groved on a 6 pole hex nut..and you can see the aerofoil like structure, is made from pu putty, gives me even more thrust even at low revs..
