    Twin 545 brushed motors with 2 x 80amp esc spinning 2 x 30mm 6 blade props

    More sanding completed and some additional parts printed. Have decided to add further railings towards the stern area.

    Now working on electronics for the spinning radar and moving spotlight, nav lights and spluttering exhaust cooling outlets

    Hi its the Creality K2 Plus with 350mm x 350mm bed size and using PLA+. She's quite small in terms of what tou could print from that bed. Could easily use a smaller 220mm bed for this size.

    Will be coated in Epoxy resin before a few layers of the gunmetal grey paint and lacquer.

    Also for the stl files. Once I've finalised a few errors in the print model I'll happily hand them out.

    The original real vessel is the Stan patrol vessel and it shares part of that design.

    Part of the bow is 1inch solid PLA for strength with a 2cm solid keel line as a backbone. I'm going to glass some internal joints for added peace of mind though the sections are coming together nicely.


    Heres a photo of the smaller accessories printer hard at work with guardrails, bollards, spot lights, rudders and A-frame

    Iโ€™d that 3D printed? Where can I get files? Nice beginning. The stabilizer fins I like that. Had them on real Navy ship. It helped during a hurricane crossing the Atlantic. The one on left I had non working stab find. I have servos n could have made them like rudders or ailerons. I even have gyro board. Kick myself on not thinking of that.
