    As soon as you like, Get in touch with Bernie(Capt Sci fi) and go thru him, He is handling all international stuff as I dont have the where with all to do that. Its 32 inches long from the tip of the tail fins to the nose.
    Hi Chaps,

    We are adding details to the store for all international (outside UK) orders. Box weight is approx 2.6 kilo's as a guide, dimensions are 800mm long 270mm square, shipping price will be confirmed ASAP. The Rotor / Eddy Damper / Rate Master will be able to be motorised in a dry static model state however to get the best from this model I highly recommend using the Sub Driver unit currently in development. This will add a whole other level to the satisfaction of owning this model

    David is working up a suitable power unit (Sub Driver) at the moment, the model will be using water jet propulsion. If I understand what David has described he is designing a really clever unit for this model that will discharge the water from the flooded internal volume to mimic the freeboard displacement seen in the show more accurately, dry decks AND mostly dry sides. This is quite a challenge technically but I know it will be more or less a quality "plug and play" module in it's design, so installation should be straight forward. There will be plenty of build information to follow along and good people to ask for any technical support needed. David is also working up an interior kit for super detailing and making into a great display model.

    I guess if you been following this thread and the updates on ETF then you know all this already, I am including this brief synopsis so all the new folks that I am sending in this direction can recap quickly. :biggrin:

        OMG! You're killing me...

        So let me get this right. You are doing the sub for rc & static, HWSNBN is doing the subdriver and interior, the latter which you can swap out for when you want to go rc...? STRUTH I just have to have one of these!!!!
        Cheers,
        Alec.

            Man! ... Mamas is ****ing me off! When the smoke clears, the only work I'll be doing on the interior are the figures.

            Honestly, Mamas, I stand in awe of your work. Simply ... WOW!

              David, I wont be casting this set of bits, I just got bored and went with it, its not 100% accurate anyway so you do an interior as you were going to do. Oh BTW your Stingray was delivered to Bernie so it should be on its way to you soon.

                            Good news!!!! I tested the ratemaster with a new Gearbox and it works brilliantly. Hopefully Video tonight.

                                You mentioned in your video here that its too fast and that youll need to slow it down somehow. If the rate master is for appearances only then just variable speed it to however fast that you want it to turn. The real speed of the sub is determined by the jet drive, right?
