at last I took it for its first run on the lake and it went like a dream,can't tell you how good it looked lots of interest from others,its running on twin Emax EL4030/10 motors,two Hobbywing 60 brushless speed controllers and four 18.5 volt 5s1p LI polymer 4000 mah 35c batteries .what can I say but a really good kit from speed line models,would love to build the trent now but don't think the wife would let me go missing for another year in the shed but fingers crossed

    once I can find out how to get them downloaded on to this site I will post some video,I have tried once before but with no luck I must be doing something wrong
  • Dave MVice Admiral
    There was a problem with the video downloads earlier this year but Stephen corrected this recently and you should now be OK to upload. 😀

This is the Metcalf kit and it has taken approximately two years to build!
It had its maiden voyage on Monday 8th July.
It is powered by two Speed 720 motors and a 12 volt battery.
It is sailed on Cheddar Model Boat Club lake in Somerset.

    Thank you for your nice response!

    Yes I am pleased with the two 720 motors and have a sound unit "the noisy thing" fitted as well which makes it look and sound like the real thing. 😊
  • FlackWarrant Officer
    I have the same kit and am part way through the build - if the finished boat looks half as good as yours I will be overjoyed 👍
