    Virginia Beach, VA, Bill. We used to have a great site to operate here -- Mount Trashmore lake -- but the city shut us down about fifteen-years ago shortly after a drunk, south-of-the-border illegal drowned there, and his illegal survivors sued the City for a ****-load of money.

    Just another reason for the Wall! https://pilotonline.com/news/article...9e3de3afb.html

    Today we use the JCC pool.

    We do go to the Newport News City Park for the annual Fall Festival to show-off and operate the models -- and that's right next to Fort Useless.

    I'm dealing with an old-fart. Good. You've been around the block a few times. Let's get this toy assembled and in the water, pal.

    That's a fine system, Bill. Put the stern planes on channel-2, rudder on ch-1, the motor on ch-3, the ballast system on ch-5, and the bow planes on ch-6. Channels 5 and 6 are three-position only switches, but that's OK as the bow planes and ballast system work just fine as bang-bang items. Channel-4 is unused.

    And a question, I got the type-23 fitting kit with my Bronco kit, but am not sure where all the parts go. I have Googled the kit number but no luck
    Anyone have any ideal where I can get more documentation?
    Thanks

    Yeah... …

    …... from me!

    First, check this out: https://forum.sub-driver.com/forum/g...5th-scale/page

    If, after careful review of this assembly-thread and you're still lost, hit me with you specific component location and attachment questions. I'll guide you along.

    But first: RTFI
