Hello shipmates, thanks for looking in. At this point in time due to ill health I don’t have
much to share with you. However I feel compelled to tell you about, and show you this little circuit board I
bought a couple of years back. I bought it from a EBay seller called CaptnBarry, once fitted it did not take long for me or anyone watching to see the boards full potential.
I mean, take a twin prop and a two channel radio and perform a 360o turn ON THE SPOT. Just watch my video, also the ship you see is 6ft long and made with sheet aluminium so no light weight either.

With this unit connected when you
turn right it reverses the right prop
and forward drives the left prop and the opposite for left turn
which in the past could only be done
if you had a separate channel on each
motor. A simple, but very effective gem of a board.

On my bench
As I mentioned above health is preventing me from doing very much.
At this moment I have two unfinished projects and one ongoing long term.
I also have the HMCC Sentinel which I started a couple of years back, took her to the pond for trials and was so disappointed, she now sits in the attic. She was just so top heavy. Adding enough weight to keep her stable makes her sit too low in the water. i enjoyed building her though.
