DS Elco 80

Post by DaveB »

The odd thread here where Rick and Brian have commented and I can't see anything new plus, PeteP's recent shots showing Portsmouth prompted me to dig the Deltasims Elco PT boat out and reload my Portsmouth scenery. I got 4 shots in before 'Your computer has run out of all available memory' struck me down. I know you won't be too disappointed because I've already posted far too many shots of ships and Portsmouth :lol:

It's not a bad model.. ok for a while and then you get bored which is why I've not used it in yonks :lol: It has the usual DS features in that the torpedos will fire but I do wish they'd have given the RN crew RN headgear. She does some 30odd knots which is cool. One of my original plans was to paint the hull black and put RAF roundels on it. I know the RAF didn't have PT boats but it would make a fun rescue launch with the torpedos fired (so out of view). Didn't happen though :lol:

Hi,

That looks very much like my R/C Perkasa class MTB which does run at a good clip but not 30kt.. :)
Regards,

Tell you what Degsy, If I had an R/C version.. I'd get a lot more use out of it :lol: Not seen anything I like in my price budget though :|
