I like the bronco allot better but maybe a skippy would be cool I could display the little one I am building with it.

David what do you think of the Bronco or kilo over the Skipjack? Would going to one of these models over the skipjack introduce problems or are they on the same skill level.

The KILO is so small as to give the new-guy fits and employs a gas-type ballast sub-system. The big Type-23 is harder to assemble than the SKIPJACK, but otherwise a fine boat. The SKIPJACK is an easy to assemble kit and turns into a fast, maneuverable, and handsome r/c submarine.

That said, know that I'm biased toward the SKIPJACK so am not an unbiased source here.

Then build the Bronco. You have enough skills to get it done. Like I said before the toughest part was the hull separation. I skipped the hull split on the Gato, but needed to finally submit for the Bronco. It was a messed up job I did and took a lot longer to fix than the rest of the build (at least that is the way it felt while I was sanding and sanding and....you get the idea) That being said, I like the WWII subs better than those smooth nuclear subs (which I am told with training, I'll be able to tell the differences) So far I can pick out Skipjack class.

Got the 23 because the Skipjack ( both Revell and Moebius) was more expensive...

That's fair enough, but not your first sub right?

[He Who Shall Not Be Named]

Why, no, no it's not Romel's first sub. He has a yet to be finished 1/144 KILO.

How's the KILO going, pal? When are you going to put something into the water. You've been a Bride's-Maid long enough.

Perhaps he's got stuck. Have you?

If you need help with something, ask.

No, I haven't gotten stuck.
It's just that different priorities popped up the last couple of years that has put my build on hold.

Thanks for the offer.

Always behind you ... ready to shove.

I know, i was just stirring it up
Not that i can talk, ive got three builds on right now, and was stalled on all three. finally getting traction on the M1 though

[Hazegry]

Well after looking at several theeads and builds I think i will do a skipjack with torpedo tubes

[He Who Shall Not Be Named]

Start with only one, maybe two tubes. Cheaper that way. You want to get crazy later, opt for more launchers.
