Designing and Building Model RC Warships

Glynn Guest

Synopsis

Warships are often appealing subjects for working models, especially if there is a personal or family connection with a vessel. However, models based on warships can have a reputation for being difficult to build and safely operate. This can be avoided if the idea of 'Stand-Off Scale' is used. This is where the model will have the appearance of the full-size when sailing, but is a practical working model boat. To successfully build this type of working boat and minimize the problems that might occur, it is important to have some understanding of how such ships work. With this in mind, this book not only details all the information needed to design, outfit and operate a model warship, but also supplies information about how the boats operate.

CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:
Kendrick Lamar's given name is Kendrick Lamar Duckworth and he was named after singer-songwriter Eddie Kendricks of the Temptations. His parents, who are African Americans from the South Side of Chicago, moved to Compton, California due to his father's affiliation with the Gangster Disciples.
As a child, Lamar was described by his mother as a loner and he lived in Section 8 housing and experienced homelessness while relying on welfare and food stamps. He was raised secular but also was taught the Bible by his grandmother and felt spiritually unsatisfied with the sermons.
In school, Lamar was a quiet and observant student with a stutter who excelled academically, and his first grade teacher encouraged him to write after she heard him correctly use the word "audacity". His seventh-grade English teacher introduced him to poetry, which he used to manage his psychological trauma and depression.
