Hey this is my first time here and I have a lot of questions. I FINALLY bought my first Smit Rotterdam.
I have some real BASIC questions....


First....Glue.....there are SO MANY out there...can anyone recommend where to start


Motors.....how do I know which one.....it's a 1:75 scale....and I've seen some threads but not sure which ones to get


Lastly....the radio and servos. Looking at the kit, it seems to me to make more sense to do the planking....lacquer the inside....then figure out where to mount the servos for the rudders....All the threads I've seen NOBODY has any visual plans showing how to do this!!!


HELP!!

Hello!
If you look at "Working vessels" I have a thread about me building Smit London, it's the same kit. There are pictures of my motor and rudder installation. I'll be happy to help out during your build.
All the best!
