Title: Fletcher Class
Post by: Nordsee on August 17, 2012, 03:18:02 pm

While wandering through the local Craft Shop and waiting for my wife to decide what Card Making bits she wanted, I saw they were stocking Revell Kits.There was a Box containing 4 Kits of the Fletcher Class destroyer, I could only see the end of the box and it stated that it is 80cms long, certainly big enough for simple RC conversion ( I have done their S Boat at 1/72, a squeeze but possible) so this should be OK, The shop couldn't give me a price as they were still unpacking, so i left them in peace. I will certainly buy my paints etc from them, Use 'em or lose 'em! My question is, has anyone here done a RC conversion, have looked but to no avail, anyone help me?
