Cracking stuff Chris. Rather you than me....I prefer analogue to digital LOL....
HI TIM an yes i aggree with you i dont think this digital is all its cracked up to be as on the telly when we were on analogue we had a good picture but then to digital and you could see the difference but to digital it has got better but like my dad always said regards analogue if it an'it broke dont fix it but they did to digital
an thank you for the crackin stuff comment cheers but this ship is seeming to get more complex than i ever imaganied but it will all work out in the end an it will get built

Hi Chris
Outstanding work on the superstructure detail and your electronics work continues to amaze. With regards to the RC bind, I’ve found through my few RC projects that there always seems to be some problem to overcome. I know you will solve these issues Chris and, in time, Tiger will join your ever growing flotilla of amazing model ships.
Keep up the great work

HI Chris, wow totally agree just amazing that wiring, handy you know how, i would not know where to start, does the plans come with a wiring diagram as well, keep the good work up and are the motors geared at all or no need to.
Tony from down under

HI ALL well this is my tribute build to Simon T an its not finished yet as a lot more has got to be made an ftted on but just before he passed on i found out that he knew more about me than i did my self an he made me laugh such a nice gent an this is what he said to me in a pm an i dont think he'd mind me showin you all what he said below
Can I ask you a question please? Why do you always miss D and G off the end of words in your writings - is it some form of dyslexia?
No pressure if you don't want to answer then fair enough, just curious
All the best
SimonT
an again Simon exsplains why he noticed this about me as ive never noticed
but he certainly picked up on it an again made me laugh at how he spotted it he was a true gent what he said below an i think he's right
In primary school we were bombarded with spelling tests - either daily or weekly I can not remember which but we would get lists of ten words to learn for a test.
As a result my spelling has always been pretty good.
For work I have spent the last thirty odd years converting engineers scribbles into presentable 2D and latterly 3D drawings. Engineers are notoriously well known for not being very good at spelling. It means I have had a lot practice correcting other people’s writing so errors tend to jump out at me
I shall try and remember to pm :thumb2:
All the best to you both
SimonT
i did not know Simon as well as most of you guys but he certainly knew more about myself than i knew about me an i'll always be gratefull to him for pointing it out to me an yes i know im a rotten speller but i think you all know what i mean an this is a forgiving forum so no worries for me an now in the next posts the pics as a tribute to him as he passed on while i was building this so i think its fitting to show this bridge build an when i show it an look at it for me as well as you guys lets all think of Simon an what a gentelman he was

WELL here we go with the fisrt pic an ive been tryin to fix on the complex detail as best i can but with every pic i look at of the real ship an the model down in portsmouth in a case there are loads of difference's so ive just got to fit on what looks right an this is only about half way as there is still loads to fit on
an in the two back boat deck sqaures there are now lights fitted inside which i will be able to turn on an off by radio command from my tramitter
AN here a shot of the rear of the main super struckture an if you look to the left you will see all the steps that lead to different decks i have not put on the other side lot yet as the steps are just laid on but they will be fixed on when its all sprayed up in its light humbroll N0 64 MATT LIGHT GREY
