HI just completed/refurbished an old and somewhat poor and sorry MFJ Fairey Fantome, complete stripdown repaint and new shafts/motors etc.
Now for some water trials to see what mods are required.

Hi
Thanks for your interest,I have fitted two 850 motors and work on 14 cells just for short bursts, this has proved to be fine with my other boats.

This slide show shows the build and final result of my scratch built Seaplane Tender. it is 1/12th scale and powered by 2 x 250 watt brushless motors. Built in 2011, it sails at Knightcote in Warwickshire and Tynemouth in the NE.

It is a "Model Slipway" Kit and is listed on their web site ( www.modelslipway.com ) as Yorkshireman as this was the sister tug. The basic kit costs about A£270 and running gear, bow thrusters, fire monitors and radio gear costs about another A£250. The kit is really for those with modelling experience as it has a few challenges for the inexperienced. Hope this helps

I used the extremely good drawings in the plans sold on the model boats magazine shop web site. As you say, easily copies at staples so can even be used as a template when copied. Good luck with your project.

Many thanks, I prob have not researched enough at the start just wanted to crack on with something. Not even looked in a model magazine, though visited a few local clubs on sail day.

This is my 46 inch fireboat. it is a 1960s Aerokits model that I was given about 18 months ago only partly started (frames and stringers). it is powered by 2 x 770 watt brushless motors with 4s lips and has working monitors and an Action Noisy Thing sound system. it is pictured here at Tynemouth boating lake where I an a member to of the Tmbc.

I'll get some pictures when I next see it as it is kept at my Mums place in the NE where the lake at the Tynemouth club is big enough to take it given its speed and size. if you are blowing fuses, make sure you haven't over greased the shaft. I did that once and really only a light greasing of the inner shaft and some light oil on the bearings is all that is required. Also try a smaller prop. You may not get any reduction in Speer as the motor may rev faster and at lower amps. I've just taken the 50mm 3 blade brass props off mine and put 45mm 2 blade plastic racing props on and she runs faster and smoother. Hope this helps.

Bought off ebay, where else! Had been started as a cruiser, with one very small electric motor,then put in a loft for goodness knows how many years.Replaced prop shaft with 2, 40mm r/h and l/h props, 2x 540 motors running through 40a esc.Radio is 27mhz. 2ch. would like to swap to 2ghz to get rid of the unsightly aerial! I am awaiting some plasticard windows to Improve the looks and will slowly add fittings as and when.I tend to sail it every now and again on the boating lake in BUXTON, no-one has shouted as yet,though I'm not sure the swans approve.!: The photo on the water was just as the power was running down, none as yet at speed.It is very manoeverable with the twin rudders,almost on the gunwhales at speed.

The size of speaker all depends on available space. if you fit the biggest possible speaker Im a cramped position, its never going to give out maximum output, as objects in front of it will disperse the sound waves, so in this instance, its far better tio fit a smaller speaker and be able to allow free space for the sound waves to exit properly.
Obviously, if you can fit the bigger version, its gives more bass and sounds far better.
remember to install the speaker on a firm base plate and ensure this fits neatly to wherever you have decided to install. now to create the "speaker sound box". if you think of an ordinary speaker at home on your stereo or surround sound system, it is in a sealed box [or cabinet], well same applies to get optimum performance out of a speaker in your boat too. I fitted mine in the bows of the Mersey, facing the stern, and used the "not used" bow section as the sound box, you also have the deadening effect of the water, which aids the sound output out of the speaker. remember to make an "air port" in the speaker plate, to allow air "in/out" too, not too big or small a hole mind.
the better you create the sound box and make sure the space in front of the speaker is clear, the better the sound output.
best of luck.
Incidentally, I have now purchased an m troniks version, I WAS going to install in another "smaller" boat, but after listening to it, I dont think I'll bother and save up for another action system and stick the mtroniks one on ebay!

many thanks for the info I think I will go for the big base one as I have plenty of room in my boat its quite large one so won't be a problem for room if you look in the build blog section on this site you will see it.its the 60inch fire boat,I will let you know how I get on once it has arrived and fitted.
cheers for the help Arthur. you boat sound so good 👍

HI fellow modellers, Another model from the RADMC fleet at the fleetshaven workshop and boat yard in Ponthir.This model was scratch built using a fibre glass hull and plan obtained from a fellow modeller at the Bridgend Show in 2007. The front door and some fittings are made from plastic card and tube, decks are from ply and timber. On board figures are from the pound shop and car boot sales, modified by myself. The on board tank and half truck are RTR models that I have modified their looks to fit into a WWII theme for the craft. This craft has twin drive, 400 motors via 2.5/1 gearboxes. I tend to use both sticks on the TX for drive as this allows me to turn the model on a six pence.The dispatch door works from a rotary pot on the TX and via a rotary sail winch servo in the hull. I have just modified my Planet 5 TX to allow me to change my radio gear in this craft. This model has had meny trips on Cwmbran Boating Lake and at shows the society attend during the year. Still haven't allowed the tank or half track to run off the landing craft up the lake side slipway. one day I might get it on video. Hope you enjoyed the photo's. Regards GreyWolf

This is GRP hull and a part vac-formed cabin and the rest is scratch build using plastic card! Fittings are from my own range along with the crew. Prop shafts and "A" frames are home made along with the rudders which are to scale form John Lamberts drawings.
Two Groupner eco600 motors are used connected to a 6volt cell lasting around 3 hours running.

In the process of converting a revell 1/400 version of the Queen Mary2 into a working r/c model using pager motors in the pods instead of using propshafts to keep it as authentic as possible. Have put gearing in to turn pods so dont have to have a rudder. So far all tests have been successful and will shortly have all detailing done and have ballast sorted ready for test runs.
