PBR
by Don

This PBR was scratch built, I used the 1/32 scale hull from the LINDBERGH PT109 kit, I like the PBR but for RC the Tamiya kit that everybody else builds is too small for what I like to do. I picked up the smaller kit and then decided what size I wanted and started scratch building. I was going for one in the size of the full PT-109. It came out nice, it was done with one motor and shaft, uses one 6 pack nicad or a pair like the PT-109. I have it set up with a manual speed control, and single rudder, as well as a 2 channel futaba radio. The front gun is scratch and the 2 rears are from the PT kit, Some of the smaller parts are from the small PBR kit that I used for scaling up. The front of the deck is part of the pt boat kit then the rest of it is scratch built. The rest of the boat is from bass wood and some plastic sheet.
