Type XXI WTC

[cgbillb]

Good day one and all
I got my type XXI from Bob today it is a 1/72 scale boat. Here is my question, and I have gone thru most all the pages here with no results.
1) What WTC should I use? I was thinking Bob's 250 series with dual shafts. With a ballast tank of about 8-10 inches.
2) What would be the best way to install the WTC, I was thinking something like the Type XXIII found on David pages?
Thanks for any help

I watched Bob's video about the Type XXI he's selling. The hull is designed to split axially fore and aft. If you want a longitudinal hull separation either you cut the hull using a dremel or modify the file.

Thanks
I am thinking going the L-design like David did in his type XXIII

The axial split is best suited for cylinders that have the equipment tray as one large section. With the traditional three-piece cylinders that we use here in the US, access from the top is much better. The XXI is actually very well. Suited to have a simple waterline cut across the entire boat. No need for L or Z cuts.
