As our very own Stan is building a Robbe Schultz he thought it might be an idea to share the build with you guys. Unfortunately still struggling with the intricacies of posting pictures I said I would be happy to post his pictures for him and you can feel free to ask questions as we go along. Stan being Stan researches everything the the very last finite detail, usually to the point of driving us all nuts, so I'm expecting this model to be quite special. He's already decided which parts of the kit are not up to standard and how he is going to go about replacing them with considerably more scale replacements.
The first picture is the deck going on, held in place by Evo Stick nail and seal and clamped up for 24 hours.
Next a few shots of the interior showing two 15 amp viper E/ S/ C feeding into an Action fuse board then on to each motor. New prop shafts fitted and 4mm stainlees steel shafts and brass shaft supports with Prop Shop props. This was the first area to be remodelled to look that bit closer to the real thing. As no pictures could be found of the external runing gear it was decided after investigating many similar craft of the time that the shafts would almost certainly be exposed.
Other pictures show detail that is being added to the remodelled deck. The deck has been individually planked with the hatch positions accurately included in the planking. The planking was done with 3mm x 0,5mm planks.
