I think its about time I started to show my build off the HMS Clyde 1/48th, its taking a long time but I am getting their. As you can see I have done all the hull work cutting openings and fixing props shafts etc. she will have working bow thruster and stern thruster. running on two electric motors 24v
Starting the super structure from A3 Plasticard 2mm sheets taken measurements from the plans this being the first time I have done this. pictures to follow once I remember how to down size them.

Hi  Stuart22


I've completed HMS CLyde at this scale, if you need any help please let me know.


If you do a search for 1/48 HMS Clyde & Build Update HMS Clyde, on this forum you will see some pics of my build which may help.

stuart22:
Hi T888 we met at Netley Marsh still trying to get pictures loaded, I've been working so not had much time hopefully soon. its coming along fine. I have seen your model and taken picture's looks amazing cheers.

T888:
Hi Stuart22,


That closes the loop. :-))


I've used Speed 850 motors running on 12volts and the model performs well, so you may not need 24v

I run my (sister ship) HMS Mersey on a pair of MFA 800 motors works for me on 12v, did try the 850's but didnt notice that much difference apart from current draw.


They do make great boats on the water at 48th scale.
