Hi;
New to the site, and just started a Mountfleet Sealight kit. My previous build was a scratch built 1:24 scale centreboard R/C schooner, which did get a bit of cover on a certain other, US based, forum.
The first thing I have changed is the lower rudder pivot- such a thin shaft of white metal will not last five minutes. I filed a slot in the rudder leading edge, and soldered in a brass pin. After filing a new slot in the skeg, the pivot now lines up with the rudder shaft and the pintles. Deck next, and I notice no camber, which doesn't seem right. I propose steaming a bit in to the ply, and altering the hatch surround etc. to suit.
Can someone point me to the way to post photos, please?
Phil
