    Hi CommodoreH I included it in this list: first message of the link.

    All that was missing was the weight of the ship and the number of propeller blades but that didn't matter.

    If you agree I would like to insert data from all your models into your harbor.

    Hello CommodoreH, I am visiting your magnificent Harbour.

    Does this ship suit you in RC navigation?

    Congratulations you have entered all the data of your ships, I have some splendid examples to complete my list on the topic: "Proportions between ship size and propeller diameter".
    Can I include data from your models as examples for consideration?
