I'm watching this, to see how it differs from my Revell Sea King Mk41.

an here the gold eletric pick up pins an sockets which will be fitted an wired into the chopper to work every thing an sockets will be fitted into the flight deckComment

an in this pic one of the tiny 3v motors fitted with a gear box so the shaft is turning only at about 20 rpm to turn the main rotars an its spinning the bit of tape so i could see how fast it goes an to me just right an these motors are about 5 mm wide an about 2 centy mrt long so they should fit in the chopper just right but there is goin to be a lot of exspeimenting goin on firstlyComment

My word Chris you do set your self some challenges. Think the idea of one chopper on the deck and the others in the hanger being worked on is a great idea . The fact that the blades will be turning and it will have lights as well will be fantastic .Keep it up , don't sleep in on Sunday either
, not as if you would dare !

AN HI John no would not dare to sleep in on sunday morn as got to be up at 4am to take jen to car boot sale as im to fond of me crown jewels lolMy word Chris you do set your self some challenges.

an yes i love a challenge of getting the chopper all goin with both rotors goin an all the lights
as when the ship is at a show or sailing ive had so many of the general public sayin it looks great with the helo all goin an some people really belived it would take off as they thought it was a mini R/C chopper but havin said that i could proberly make the chopper lift up on a brass rod as ive seen it done on a freinds HERMES model
but then he had a lot more room than i have got on tigers flight deck but as they say nothing ventered nothing gained but if i can get this seaking goin like my merlin on my norfolk i will be well pleased
like this below but the merlin is a bigger chopper so how it will go on a seaking well i dont know as one point on the seaking is the float an undercart out riggers are really to weak to fit in the gold eletric pick up pins unless i strenghen them but again will see on that
ATB TO YOU John an thanks for takeing an intrest in my build an all your likes
