Last time my wife was away I bought a bath tub...er 1/6 scale fibreglass Us seal insertion boat...yes the one that was 6ft long
Now, she has gone away to go and see her brother...so what do I do...yep, bought another boat.
This time I got some smaller
Some of you know the Hobby ready to run jobbies, they retail around £150ish, I found one on Ebay that was local to be, no transmitter or battery but managed to get it for £40.
So, managed to get the deck off, stripped out the innards and replaced the speed controller, receiver etc and she is now on 2.4G. I already had all the gear spare so it has just cost me £40.
So, when weathered and rusted she will great to chuck on the water and have some fun.
