It does have a drive motor, but don't think I will connect it up, since the engines do need attention while they are running and access is not easy once they are installed.

Hi Skyfire,

Looking good, but not an easy build, very interesting to see it come together.

Regards

Trev.

Engine update. Added both engines to the engineroom floor. As the engines require almost constant attention when turning, (even by hand) I removed the upstream driveshafts, so the motor can turn the propellors without turning the engines.

Hi Skyfire, BigGrin

Good to see an update on this build, but its such a shame that you have an issue with the running of the engines.

As a seriously not cheap kit I would have thought that more attention would have been paid to the running gear. Crying

I fully understand you`re method of having the props running and saving the engines and I applaud you for keeping the build going. Cool


Looking forward to future updates. ThumpUp

At that scale it looks fantastic, as you get better detailing.

Latest bit of work on the Titanic. Added some decking to the forward boat deck. Not going to add the lifeboats just yet, far to easy for things to get damaged.
