Question - Five fibreglass hulls , need help PLS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Got five boats made by ;

TORNADO MODEL PRODUCTS.

They have twin engine water jacketed electric motors and a big box Power AMP, but a coil radio with no 'frequency crystal to exchange and go' with.

'we' (over here) are looking for plenty of advice on what to do next with them !! .

All thats applide would be greatly apprechiated.

Those boats look like they were once coin ops like you would see at a fair or carnival. They all look sound enough to build into respectable models but the electronics would need replacing. They dont seem to have any rudders attached so they use vector thrust for steering. This type of steering is not a very good preformer so adding a rudder may be necessary. Looks like you have a couple of nice projects to start on. If we can help any let us know.

Yup, looks like time to change out to hobby grade gear to get independent RC boats. The hulls look like they could be cleaned up, upgraded and made into serviceable boats of various types. Depends on how much time and detail you want to put into them... but also how much money.

Looks to be a fun project.

Hey thanks , now were talking.
Yes the hulls at a closeup look we see are double walled, all glass fibre.
Do you think I'll get a price for them all on ebay and buy one real 'carbon' fibre hull or should I re-model each of these, I'm curious about the Amp boxs inc' radio !.
