                    AN I bought this power dristroubutions board so that when she wired up fully this unit should send power all around the ship in the correct voltages an it all fitted with fuses to protect any unit from a power surge an it will also provide power to the R/X that controls the ship Click image for larger version

                            Hey Chris
                            I’ve been a bit busy of late so not had a chance to catch up with the HMS Tiger thread.
                            Seems you’ve been keeping busy since I last visited. The electrics seem to be coming along really well and it’s interesting seeing the various electronics boards used. It all looks very complex but I’m sure that you know where everything is going and that everything will be powered/lit/motorised just as it should be!

                            Great progress
                            All the best
                            Paul
