HMS Bramble build

<< < (2/35) > >>

ship's doctor:
Hi Joe,

Looking forward to this one- I've been doing a bit of reading about the Algerines recently for a potential model (which is my usual strategy when I'm frustrated with the current build... :) )

There is a pdf of the RCN modified design on the Historic Naval Ships Assoc. website. There are also good drawings of the sweep gear in the flower class 'anatomy of the ship', and discussion of how the gear worked.

Hope this is of help,

James

Hi Paul,  I have seen the first website but not the second, and have to say it is invaluable to all of us model ship builders so thanks for that,
and thanks James and Colin yes any help from you guys is always a help and always appreciated.
I 've got the batteries a pair of 2200mah nimh 7.2 and a graupner navy 15 esc that should fit the bill, and a saturn Rx, I tend to use the same transmitter for several models and being 2.4GHz makes it easy.as for the rest ie. motors, servos, couplings, props and upgrade shafts, I have a birthday next mouth and family have been asking what to get, well you get the idea.

paul swainson:
I see so that is how you do it, take the good lady for a walk show her the sights plant the seed and wait for the light bulb.  Then you drop the idea just a few weeks before a birthday and see what pops up.   Not a bad idea.  Will have to try that one but do not fancy a cruise on a Hospital boat in October.   But I could ask Ron for a camp pitch in his back yard and do some guard duty to get a nice price for that nice Hospital ship. ???

radio joe:
curses you've worked out my evil plan LOL.
