Brightwork,
You inspired me to do something to display some of my boats. It's just a start, but I cleared off some less interesting stuff from a couple of bookshelves and went to my shed and literally "dusted off" some of my Harbor. Certainly not as beautiful as yours, but now I at least have a few of my boats to look at over the winter Dry Dock season. Thanks for the inspiration! Dave B PS Please ignore the mess around the bookshelves, it was a quick and dirty project, LOL ▲

DW Brinkman. IKEA shelves with led tape lighting. Thank you for your kind words. These shelves are in the bedroom. I just canโt seem to get shelf space in the living room lol. Some are in my man cave as well. Cheers.

What a beautiful collection of boats.
Someday, I hope to move my Harbor (or at least some of it) from my shed to a nice display like yours. Someday .... I seem to say that word a lot, sigh Dave B ▲

Hi Bob, yes the Griffon belongs to Hayling Island Model Club Member Mike.
The club are a great bunch of guys with a wide range of model knowledge and I enjoy being able the share media from such an enthusiastic club. Rob is the website manager who sent me the video clip - I thought it too good not to share through my RCSailing channel while experimenting with "Youtube shorts". P.S my channel is not monetarised - its just for fun. ▲

Since my first comment I have been able to open your link and see the short hovercraft video Phil.
The model is described as a GRIFFON so I am guessing that I should be able to find out more about the model online - maybe there is a commercially available kit for it? I will see what I can find out about building and running an r/c hovercraft. ▲

I added this comment under Receiver problems but it has appeared under Hovercraft?
Hi Stephen I use 40Mhtz. FM, most of the time. I have the 3 ch. Hitec Tx's and also a couple of Fleet Tx's one 4 the other 6 ch. Plus a Sanwa ex 35Mhtz and a couple of other sets yet to see action. I have a selection of 5 and 7 ch. rx's, about a dozen plus. I bought a lot from modellers who switched over to 2.4G. I also use ex 35Mhtz sets and fit 40Mhtz crystals, although I discard the dual conversion rx's. Only once have I had a Futaba rx not work with a Hitec Tx but it worked with a Futaba Tx. I have more than enough RC equipment in this and 27Mhtz both AM and FM to see me out. I do not have any submarines but suggest it maybe the rx aerial needs to be prominent but insulated and outside the sub? Does it all work out of the water? I assume you are using a standard length aerial? Are you using any of the modern servos as I find that some of them do not suit the older radio equipment. I have some 9 gram metal geared ones that chatter. I can't think of anything else that might help. good luck Roy ▲

Hi Stephen

Thanks for all the replies guys....Im going to try a reciever of the same make as the transmitter but it's annoying because all the rc info says all 40 MHZ makes are compatible with each other (NOT) .

It sounds like a bit of a shift problem... there are two options , positive shift and negative shift. I think, although I am not 100% sure, that HiTec uses positive shift receivers. Futaba uses negative shift, I believe. I have run into this issue while attempting to find receivers for an old Multiplex radio( Multiplex is now owned by Hitec).
I think your best bet is to try to find a matching receiver, ie, same brand. Good Luck ▲

Hi Stephen.
Interesting sub you have there. I only use 27 MHz in mine but principle is the same. First thing that springs to mind is antenna connection and fixing. Does it work in the dry but not in the wet. You have probably thought of those two things. Is your power supply good? Bill. ▲
