    Does anyone have a suggestion as to what kind of servo, receiver and controller works best for the Riva model?

    Rick, I'm still under construction and have not started planking yet. If I don't use them, you are more than welcome to them. Tom

    Thank you. This does help me. I will forgo the nails.

    The first planking for this model shows nails being used. The kit includes a bag of nails. My only other experience planking was with a Dumas model Chris Craft. No nails were used in the first planking it was all glued. The pictures of the Riva under construction show nails that are partially driven in and then bent over. Is the second planking glued over the top of the bent nails? Are the nails used to hold the first planking in place so they can then be glued? Are the nails removed after the planks are glued? I need help.

    Why should I use nails on the first planking vs glue?

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal.
