A little progress still under way for this 3D actually playable boat ... {-) {-)
Tiny detailing work may still continue even for this fundamentally and essentially completed RC stuff.
Such tiny detailing is I think OK to be slowly done after RC sailable performance is fully confirmed on the water. O0 O0 :-))

Hi Kiyo. I read through this topic and am impressed with the build and look of the boat on the water! What a fab lake you have. I imagine seeing a battleship model sailing majestically along and being big enough to see from a distance.


You have certainly mastered the art of building and detailing Printed models Kiyo, she is a beauty.

Hi ballastanksian,
A great thanks for your friendly, kind and cordial comment like a sufficient compliment. :embarrassed:
I'm especially glad to have such a comment from you who may be so skilled and experienced RC boat modeller.

I have been building a RC scale boat/ship in such a principle that she keeps a suitable draught line on the water in a static condition while she has a realistic and stable sailing performance. In other words, static and dynamic balance have been intended and sought in my RC model building. This is simply because she is a RC scale boat/ship intended and expected to sail realistically and stably on the water. {-)

Hi Chris67,
Thank you for a question.!
I bought the kit at AliExpress,Japan which you could easily find with inputting "Guardian class patrol boat" at the website.
I bought it last July at reasonable price for my summer project 2025. O0
It took about 3.5 months to complete at a snail's pace and additionally one month for 5 times of sailing tests to get to the compromise-able level of sailing. :-))
