Designers patrol boat in Rozsyp to drive the electric motor 500 Series for advanced builders. Thanks to the high almost ready to most parts of the building is not particularly demanding on the skill and workshop equipment - but, of course, careful and patient work in the shipbuilding necessary to achieve a good result. For bonding you need a medium glue, epoxy resin and adhesive for plastic models. The actual construction proceeds according třípohledového drawing at actual size depicting the outer appearance of the ship. The individual construction steps are carried out according to the perspective drawing showing in detail the structure of the ship, selected key steps and making accessories such as railings facilitate preprinted templates in 1: 1st For the final finish color will be due to the small size of the ship a total of suit colors for plastic kits.
The fuselage is made of plastic vacuum molding (compact polystyrene) with internal reinforcements from parts of předseknutých mikropěnových PVC panels - made from this material is well deck and superstructure.
Scale Accessories range are made of parts from wire, cast in white metal, wood and plastic. If you have enough flavor and perseverance, you can further improve the model eg. By adding functional lighting etc. It is up to you, how do you put on your work depends ...
Propulsion simplified design serves motor-powered 500 series šestičlánkového NiMH or NiCd battery (suitable example. Šestičlánek for RC cars 1:10). Boat shaft with the housing and the spacer is also necessary to buy - very suitable are compact direct clutch shaft and a flange for mounting the motor. For long voyages when using a large capacity battery is recommended to supplement the engine cooling water.
But if you want a strictly dummy version, you need to install a trio of powerplants - a real PT-212 was powered by three aircraft engines.
To control the ship will suffice, at least any two-channel radio system, two-way electronic speed regulator least 30A (depending on engine) and one standard servo for rudder.
Kit includes: vacuum molded hull, laser-carved plywood parts, board of microfoam PVC předseknutými parts lime and plastic beams and rods, cast metal parts and other Scale accessory set of stickers, drawing a boat in 1: 1 scale, image building instruction .
