Good Afternoon,
This month we will be publishing Designing and Building Model RC Warships by Glynn Guest. I believe this title may be of interest to you.
Warships are often appealing subjects for working models, especially if there is a personal or family connection with a vessel. However, models based on warships can have a reputation for being difficult to build and safely operate. This can be avoided if the idea of ‘Stand-Off Scale’ is used. This is where the model will have the appearance of the full-size when sailing, but is a practical working model boat. To successfully build this type of working boat and minimize the problems that might occur, it is important to have some understanding of how such ships work. With this in mind, this book not only details all the information needed to design, outfit and operate a model warship, but also supplies information about how the boats operate.
Please find attached some further information about the book. If you are interested in reviewing or promoting the book, please let me know as I may be able to supply you with a review copy.
Kind regards,
