Another Sea Commander back in action can only be a good thing!
Classic r/c model boats need to be seen out on the water. Generations have missed seeing and making Aerokits models and many will be seeing them for the first time - mostly thanks to those of us that make the effort to restore and keep them afloat and in the public eye. Well done Colin 👍 👍 Like

Thanks Doug, no way but forward now, as you say I've had to wait a long time to get her on the water again.
But now as hopefully my health improves I'll get to finish it. The motor is super quiet in use, and runs so smoothly right down to 52rpm. I might even fit my other Supermarine in my other sea commander as I think it is running at a much truer scale speed. I'm using singer sewing machine oil for the brushes. Thanks again shipmate for your help in restoring the motor. Did you do anything with the KG V. Cheers Colin. 👍 Like
