[MrFatducks]

hi do u know A WEBSITE i can buy this boat from thanks

[Flap999]

Beautiful RC PT boat, great music!

[trainlinezoo]

what song is that?

[supergreg010]

It's from the soundtrack of "war of the worlds".

[captainnickface]

Nice choice of music but the Thunderchild is a steam powered Ironclad Ram. Beautiful pictures by the way.

[merocks11738]

really it was a torpedo boat? i did not know that, thaks.

[merocks11738]

the thunder child is a battle ship not a PT boat, but other than that the models is pretty good.

[DesiArcy]

Actually, the Thunder Child was explicitly described by H.G. Wells as an ironclad torpedo-ram.

[silver760]

The "Thunderchild" is an early 20th century battleship not a late 20thC torpedo boat.

[JD1010101110]

shouldn't it ram a tripod, then get blown up?

[GRAYSPURS]

could you send me the video so i can download it to my phone so i can show some people what I am building now

[supergreg010]

contact me through my profile and let me know your email address. I will send you the video then.

[GRAYSPURS]

just started building the pt-15 would like to see pictures of the workings inside

[supergreg010]

sorry, it's not my rc so cannot take pics.

[GMPST2000]

too fast... otherwise, very nice.

[Gyl01]

This is a 1/40 Pt15 from "Robbe".

I bought it about 27 years.

It was about 24 years in a cardboard,after cleaning it looked very good.

I will restore it and then equip.

It is no longer to buy and very popular.

[Cheezsoup]

Was that the Tamiya kit? The "Japan torpedo boat PT-15? If so how did you go about converting this to R/C

[supergreg010]

I'm not 100% sure as it's not mine, but I don't think it's a Tamiya kit.

[tijuana08]

yes you cant converting to rc tamiya have two pt 15s une older its most favorite to converting to rc the new one you cant work a little more but is easy too converting to rc

[zeplinofled]

the thunderchild is definitly pre dreadnought.

[lamnaa]

I dunno mouch about ships but it was definetly a pre drednaugt ship.

[LordCook95]

It would be great if you could get a little model steamer as well, find something to represent the Martian constructs, and have a little reenactment of the actual battle. With the music of course.

[Maltray]

Not a bad vid but I do have to say this. Thunderchild was probably a pre-dreadnought battleship.

[LordCook95]

The Thunderchild was an Ironclad Torpedo Ram. Basically it steams forward at full speed and smashes into things with a specially reinforced ramming spike on the front.

[love4mecha]

I LOVE this man!

I Love PT's, I never much liked this class, till i saw your vid, thank you, very much man.

[PlaneSimMan]

Great video, just wondered if you could tell me what radio control system is being used with the boat?

[Raoh]

LMAO with the music!The music fucking rules so much.

[kwokwing]

Good video arrangement,hoping that you would be a film director.The song is good,may I know what name it is? This boat is a Robbe 1/40 PT15,so it comes with no spray strips which are essential for this hull.Build spray strips which could improve the planning performance as well as cornering.(just a friendly suggestion)

[supergreg010]

thanks! the song is taken from soundtrack "war of the worlds".

[chengloki]

Just one piece of advice. the nose number should match the designation number. Otherwise, Fantastic. Anold sailor. =Stefan=

[kotori87]

Where can I get it?
