Hello all,
I just purchased the Fletcher. It has been a few years since I order these ships ( I have 3 from Graupner and 2 from Brancroft). I would like to know if the electronics are improved and ready to run? My 1/200 Brancroft Yamato is a queen shelf as the electronics are junk and cannot be used. DaiComment

Have you actually ran the ship at full duration of the battery? So far my 1/200 Yamato and Coast Guard are grounded due to poor quality electronics. Anyone can let me know if these boats have improved electronics that actually works? Thanks DaiOriginally posted by Smedley View PostComment

This is what I use on my boats. Just run some fuel line from the grease gun to the nipple.

How much ballast weight does this need on average ? I read possibly up to 8 pounds ? Thank youComment
-
Pictures are not the best my apologies. I think it is still riding high in the water, can someone confirm how she should sit in the water and could anyone tell me where to place the ballast. Perhaps share pictures showing where the ballast is placed in their Fletcher. When she was running it almost rolled over on turns lol.
