What is this ??
« on: June 18, 2025, 05:12:09 pm »

So going through my draws of stuff I have bought but can not remember why or for what was hoping someone might know what they are.
Picture 1, all came out of the SHG box, the rubber grommets have shg stamped on them.


Pic 2 & 3, possibly a JJC product
Looking again i suspect pic 2 is a mini ships radar controller,  to be used with a stepper motor?


Pic 3 other than maybe jjc, no idea. %%

Yes, but are they all the correct piece's,  I take it the round bits with the small holes are glassed into the hull ?, should there be 4.
Have searched but not yet found any pics.

From my experience I used 4 posts glassed in -
found an advert on ebay for the smaller SHG 'Shadow' 3.5cc kit with similar parts showing 2 mounting posts used.

I have had several Shadows, my current one was bought part built, but the engine mounts as shown in the first picture were already bonded in place. Wasn't too difficult to remove them ready for a brushless motor in place of the original glow engine. My first Shadow about 40 years ago had a Webra .20 for power, went quite well.
