Purchased a bare frame for an Aerokits Fast Patrol Boat from Ebay about 12 months ago just started to rebuild it. I aquired a set of drawing and made my self some working drawing of the missing front cabin.

Having covered the frame with only thin cardboard, I have covered it all in light weight tissue and applied it with Dope, I first applied sanding sealer to the card, it seems to be very hard now so we will continue with build and see what happens. watch this space!!!!!!

First Trials on the lake at Cwmbran last Sunday. Changed 3600KVA motor to a 1000KVA more suitable size uncontrollable with original motor. Running 9.6Volt 3600Mah she ran for nearly 2 hours. We can now make finishing touches to It.
