    Just spoken to my friend at SLEC who makes the parts and he suggests that you email Chris at SLEC for the details.
    The wooden circles are spacers for the cabin air vents. Hope this helps?

    Probably an email might be the best as they might have instructions they can send you? But I will still ask Colin at SLEC today.

    I am a keen collector of old radio control sets and have a great interest in the British manufacturer Flight Link Control from Hounslow in Middlesex.

    Idris Francis of FlightLink produced a 2 channel radio system for boats called the Launch Link and I am very keen to find any information or maybe even find a survivor to add to my collection.

    If you have any information regarding FlightLink or RCS radio systems, please contact me on:

    smackayrc@aol.com

    or 07785 926158

    Thanks

    I do them myself using Arduino based encoders (with servo reversing/single channel feature/throttle warning), new 2.4GHz DSMP (Spektrum compatible modules) and new batteries. I convert them for other modellers and the price is around ยฃ200 for a 4 channel system with a 6 channel lemonRx DSMX receiver with customer supplying the transmitter he wants converting, or I do have some old txs in stock that can be bought.

    A friend Graham Davies, who built the Challenger 2 9ft long replica of the Branson Virgin Atlantic powerboat got in touch with me and I now have in my collection, his custom made Mick Wilshere/Pete Christy built 6 channel radio used in that craft which now resides at the Muckleburgh collection in Weybourne in Norfolk.
