boatman's 1/72 HMS Tiger C20 build
- Thread starter boatman
- Start date
HI ALL well as there are only about 2 wks to go for tiger's launch ive been thinkin on how i can know on the T/X what lever sticks or switchs does what on her so ive numbered them all from 1 to 14 with red numbers on the T/X an a chart thats stuck by double sided sticky tape on the back of the T/X so all ive got to do now is check the number on the T/X against THE number on the chart an i will know straight away what i will be workin on her while hopefully she sails ok an here a shot of the T/X transmitter with the numbers on an chart an no 12to 14 still are free channells to use on what eles i can think up 
NO Chance Rick as she is over weight now an you dont want to see her turn turrtle do you as it would take three more heavy servos to make that crane to work an i an'it doin it Aaaaaccchhhhh what ever i use them spare channels up on will be things like ship wide flood lightin as this is all light stuff an i just dont know Rick how she will handle SORRY BOYOAlright Chris!!...... There's a couple weeks to get the crane operational!! :tongue-out3: :tongue-out2::tongue-out::tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy::tongue-out3::thumb2:

As It will take the bus that long to get there Matron has instructed the driver Sid Postlethwaite to fuel up and has organised the onlookers and most importantly The Committee to take their seats.
They are on their way .

HI Doug YES i was pleased to see her sail but ive found that she got gremlins in her as ive now got to fit in new motors as there is a fault with them to back groupener motors now i know why my brother gave them to me as he used to use them for eletric flight in his planes an he did say there was a prob with them but when i treid them they seemed ok so i fitted them but no blew all the 40 amp fuses after about 5 mins of sailin so got to take them out an buy new motors Aaaaaccchhhh but im pleased she sailed ok as last night i kept dremin she was sinkin Aaaaaccgghh BUT cheers Doug for you nice comment on her but will put her right an try again on SEPT the 10TH
Chrisb
Bloody marvellous :thumb2: Some of the head on shots look almost real…..especially the one that’s just sea and ship….l
Well, you may have a motor problem but the trim and everything else seems spot on Chris.
I'm confident you will have the motor issue resolved in your usual - 'no prisoners' fashion.
