    Thanks Sub,

    Sorry did'nt see your reply, a bit new to this sort of thing. I have tried Pandan models but they havn't received any kits from modelbrass for about a year. I don't mind building with as per the kit but I would like to get all the add-ons that are available so at least I have the options.

    Thanks.

      Hi Subzero, that a neat conversion you've done on the Robbe kit. How do you find the boat dives on a single ballast tank? Does it go down tail or bow first before settling or does it go down level?

      Cheers

        Robbe conversion u47

        Hi Sub,

        Before I start my build and conversion to static you refer to a few changes in the build stage.

        Can you supply any info please.

        Thanks

              Double bellow the rear push rods, silver solder the central screw joiner and reinforce the central H section with 4mm sq steel bar or similar also both side of the tank.. ONLY glue the sq bar in the top half of the H section the botom needs to be kept as is so it slides over some locators later in the build stage. Short reply as I keep getting timed out, hope the pics show enough, any ques just ask. Regards Sub.

                Hello Mankster...Thaks for the comp, sorry not replied sooner been orf at a show. The boat hasn't got wet yet not too long completed and been very busy, just built a XX1, The V11's built the same as a friend of mines and he's goes down prity level, the centre of the tank is just forward of the C of G so as it fills it ballances out.. thats the theory anyhow. Love your Typhoon where did you get those pics from ?.

                  Thanks, most of my pics are from the the net. You'll need to point your favorite seach engine towards the Russian sites....
