Smokeyr67 Posted November 7, 2021 Share #1 Posted November 7, 2021 (edited) Hi everyone, My name is Shane or Smokey, a rapidly ageing modeller from Australia. I’ve been building static and R/C models for a few decades more than I’m happy to admit The reason I’ve joined the forum is that I’m hoping to find some plans for the HMS QE / POW so that I can build an R/C model of her with about a 3metre loa. Anyhow, thank you for letting me join, and if I get to be too annoying, just let me know and I’ll shut up Smokey Edited November 7, 2021 by Smokeyr67 mtaylor, Moonbug, Keith Black and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amateur Posted November 7, 2021 Share #8 Posted November 7, 2021 (edited) Three meters. Quite a ship. Are you going to use it as a base for your RC planes? Jan Edited November 7, 2021 by amateur Keith Black 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
