Excellent stuff. Glad you’re back posting. Surprised there aren’t any solutions out there for your gun turrets though. Someone must have done it before?

HI Tim oh yes there are loads of solutions on other ship forums but the trouble is i want mine to be uniqe if you know what i mean Tim an not copy others although this maybe a foregone conclushion an i have to but ive been thinkin on this for months now an no nearer than what i was but its just me i think just bein bloomin awkward lol but to day im goin up to the model room an wire up the sailwhinch servo an get out the spare R/X an my new T/X an then see what ideas will come but i dont if i can help want it to copy others but hang fire on that as Rick an Lee says

HI Mick yes more work on her an i know its not what some guys were hopein for eg' the guns turrets but i just cant at the moment feel im happy with any ideas i have seen on other ship forums an my own im not really happy with as to me the guns an the bridge are the main focal points on a warship an well ive built the bridge an that came out ok

YES Mick this is the whole point of me takin so long as ive been thinkin of these for months but i may not get it right first or second time but i'll know when i feel happy with the outcome but the whole point of one of my problems is that near all the system ive looked at involed a motor to turn said turrets but i cant do that as i have not enough R/C cha nnels left an also a motor means a ESC in to turn the motor left or tight traves so its got to be powered by my sail whinch servo an this is my main stumblein block but it will come just thinkin things through an trying it all out an makin up an exspirmental board that can have shafts holes in any place till it all works ok
cheers for lookin in

Chris I really like the Chopper and the netting is impressive too. Sorry I haven’t been following along but I figured I would let you cover some ground before commenting again. Care on.Comment

Now that I’ve seen your Chopper I’m getting some Mojo to get mine started for Colin’s GB.Comment

Chris,
The netting looks great.Comment

Many thanks Scottie yes im pleased with how this ship is turning out but that netting wire steel frames took some bending had two pairs of plyiers in me hands to bend an to get it right well i was sweating as i dint want to mess them up with them aircraft hinges on as they were 10 pounds a pack an i just had enough to do them as the spare one went to the carpet monster an them hinges are quite big but when i was drillin out the steel rod holes the very first one shot off the drill to dissapear as jen or i could not find it an i dint want to have to pay another 10 pounds just for one hinge so i hope that monster is happy lol

Hi Chris
Glad to see you posting. Netting looks great. I am sure you'll sort the turret gearing. You have overcome so many issues and always come out on top that I know this will be the same.
