About this boat

Kit 1:16 Scale. Took 18 months to finish which was in July 2013. Has working Radar, made from micro servo - using original servo electronics and channel 4 to run the Radar - working nicely as I can have the Radar off or rotate both directions just using the trim control on the transmitter. Has working led lights and flashing blue light when under way using mercury switch.
Has two Grupner 600 eco motors, which are overrun with 12 volts and as such I have them water cooled, which unfortunately has proved not workable as the scoops are not effective enough to circulate - so have installed small water pump driven by 3.7volt NI battery switched by two thermostats fitted to both motors - switching pump on when temp reaches 35 degrees C. (Motor: Grupner 600 eco) (ESC: Mtronicks Viper 15Ah) (8/10)
