1/12th scale Guard lifeboat still not finished still havent painted the cockpit thats why the blue window but just couldnt wait to see it on the water. Powered by twin Pittman motors it has six low profile 12v batteries mounted below the waterline to aid in its self righting.
Its scratch built off the USCG plans I got the plans from the USCG museum. it is self righting I have 6 12v 3.4ah batteries in it 4 for the motors and the other two run the misc electronics. I built boxes that hold the batteries in place into the bottom of the boat and since those batteries are low profile all the weight in the boat is at or below the waterline. so it has no problem rolling back over.
I am interested about photos during execution of the model, and some with principal plans (at the final stage)
thancks a lot
