Montana class big gun project.

There is also a USS Ohio thread in this section with info and photos of the skegs for this class.

Ok awesome thank you!

 

Always a good time when you drop one of these on the floor of the shop

 

Now that's a tight clearance. I think I'm going to move the props farther forward a half inch or so

 

I always put my rudders as close to the prop as I can!

I agree. But mine a little to close. The rudder won't turn without hitting the props the way they sit now

 

Got bored with cutting again so decided to start a rough draft of how I'm thinking I want the deck to look.

 

Cut the tips off the props and move the rudders closer.

 

Thought about that but not really willing to do that

 

Are you building a museum piece or a combat boat? I always cut them off.

 

Haha not a museum piece

 

Also the rules say rudders have to be in the proper position so no moving them

 

He is building for big gun, not fast gun guys. Read the thread title.

 

It's all good there are a lot building techniques that can be utilized in all formats . All help welcome

 

After a short hiatus it's time to dust the hull off and get back to work. I shall post as always all updates and questions I have

 

I took my cues from the Ohio thread on how to build the skegs. Mine are just slightly different but I do have the photos of it posted . I will post the link for you...https://rcwarshipcombat.com/threads/montana-project.443405/page-7

Just check in the forum under Local Clubs - Atlantic Radio Control Club - Montana Project - Page 7 . Look for the photos and go from there.

 

This is my museum piece..sorta .

 

Agreed .Time for this ship to be part of FG combat .
