ceb76 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Hi everyone :) This is my second Corvette and I love them.I converted both of them to RC. They are really strong ships for little waves and has many space for putting whatever you want as the real ones. Playing slowly on the pond is also another pleasure B) For RC part,I used 550 sized regular motors with 12 V batteries. I put Robbe Light Sets and a smoke generator on it which are using seperate 6V battery packs. Both, 4 inch Mk IX and Bofor are controlled by two mini servos. On the other hand, for static part, I may say; -All tents are made from Tamiya Epoxy Putty, -Deck is coverd with wood lath, -Some rafts were made from resin, -40' bofor is taken from an Airfix kit and all other stuff like cans, bags, boxes, etc were from Academy's 1/72 US Navy Truck set. Building pictures can also be found here; My link Hope you'd like it :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
