petermun:
Good to see I am not on my own. My son and I are just starting, we have been given a 24 inch model of an SR.N6 which is sorely in need of some TLC. The Lift fan and motor (some sort of 400) seem to be in good nick, but I will need to re-design the thrust motor and steering. As we intend converting it to an RNLI version, I will probably replace the original one-motor thrust system with a 2-motor system. It is early days yet and we need to give the project a lot of thought, but are considering going brushless for the thrust system. Will post some photos in the near future. Pete
Hover Tim:
yes please post pics this sounds like very interesting project
