Chris-Craft is the oldest American motor boat manufacturer, whose history dates back to 1874, when the thirteen-year-old founder of Christopher Smith built the first wooden boat. His products soon became synonymous with high-quality and luxurious boats that did not burn mahogany, teak, chrome metal parts, and other exotic materials were bought by Henry Ford Callable, print magnate Hearst, Katharine Hepburn, Frank Sinatra, or Elvis Presley.

The 36-foot luxury yacht of 1954 is the pinnacle of classic shipbuilding, a reminder of the times when noble wood has not yet replaced steel, glass fiberglass and carbon ...

The kit for a luxury 1:12 scooter speed boat to drive two 500 series electric motors for advanced builder. Due to the high processing of most parts, building is not particularly demanding for skill and workshop equipment - but of course careful and patient work in shipbuilding is necessary to achieve a good result. For bonding, you will need a medium and heavy duty adhesive, "acetone" modeling adhesive, epoxy and glue for bonding plastic models. The actual construction is based on small-scale drawings and perspective drawings depicting the detail of the construction of the part of the ship. Making Macro details makes it easy to make preprinted templates in a 1: 1 scale.

The fuselage consists of a skeleton of pre-cut parts of birch plywood, the backbone of which forms longitudinal and keel with glued ribs - it stands directly on a straight worktop in the "upside-down" position. The body of the hull is supplemented with a balsa plank and balsa shaped bow blocks.

The body has a skeleton of pre-cut parts made of birch plywood, the outer walls are made of (partially laser cut and partly cut) mahogany veneer parts. The external cladding of the deck is made of mahogany sheets and veneers" / p>

The sculptures are made up of a range of brass wire parts cast from white metal, wood and plastics. If you have enough flavor and perseverance, you can continue to make the model almost unrestricted ... It is up to you how you care about your job ...

For the drive of the ship are 2 500 or 600 series electric motors (not included in the kit) powered by one or two six-cell NiMH or NiCd accumulators (for example, six cells for RC cars 1:10). Shaft with coupling and coupling also needs to be purchased - Dumas supplies a special set # 2366 (including 2 shafts with housings, cardan couplings, two-blade plastic bolts, 2 metal rudders with pulls and levers) for this model. Also suitable are domestic compact shafts with direct clutch and flange for motor mounting. To maximize engine performance and long cruise when using high capacity batteries, we recommend refilling engine water cooling. All at least two-channel RC sets, one or two bi-directional electronic speed controllers of at least 30A (depending on the engine) and one standard rudder servo are sufficient to control the ship. If you use two controllers, you can of course increase the maneuverability of the ship by independently controlling the speed of both engines (manually or using the rudder-engine mixer if you have a multichannel computer RC kit).

The kit includes: pre-cut plywood parts, pre-cut and laser carved parts made of mahogany veneer, mahogany plaits, balsa, cast metal parts and other mock accessories, a building plan containing a three-layered drawing of the boat and perspective drawings of individual building steps, two stickers, .
