looks lovely in the water m8, how was she on duration, and speed?

Oh yes, Scottie. Superb. Pic 4 my fav'.

Thanks for your kind remarks lads.

Speed was just a little below scale but I was running on low heat as it was her first outing. I'll turn the wick up next time and go for broke. Duration was a little over 15 mins but with more heat that will obviously drop, if I can get ten minutes for a single run I'll be happy.

No problem Adamz - total cost is about £350 including radio. Half of that is in the engine and boiler.
