Sub Part Info Help

[george]

Hello

I need some help. I have tried a search here and else where with no luck. I would like to know what motor is recommended for use for my 1/72 Revell Type VII and my Trumpeter 1/144 Kilo? I like the old brushed motors for now BUT it would help to know what kind for each and where to find them.

Thanks

Hi Mike

Thanks for the link.

Now I am confused between Mr. D.M`s reply and Mr. M.C`s reply with the link to his site.

So is that the same motor for both submarines then???????????

Just to make sure, that motor is for my Revell 1/72 Type VII and my Trumpeter 1/144 Kilo?

Do you also have the needed couplers from the motor shaft to the drive shafts and seals? Can you send me the links to ALL Please.


Thanks Again Mike

Yep. Same motor.

We don't sell the motor equipped with the extended drive shaft that passes through the 1/8" Diameter watertight seal -- you have to work that up on your own. We typically don't sell discrete parts, George. Just not cost effective for us to do so.

Hi M

Thanks for ALL the info. and help. Now it`s my turn to make a shopping list. I don`t remember one thing about the 1/144 Kilo, in the model, are the bow planes functional? or fixed?

George

As I assemble that kit, yes, the bow planes are active. A very well running boat. Kevin McLeod has been tooling his around for many years and there is footage of it on and under the water. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuvhxyQTU-U

And here is some footage of my KILO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FY7UwFpNkjM
