Peter Taylor's "Bardot" St Tropez 45

"Bardot" is a modified version of the supposedly RTR "St Tropez 45" fast motor cruiser. The original model suffered from severe vibration of the prop-shaft and motor , even to the extent that the motor came loose. Bardot has a replacement propeller and prop-shaft, a new 650 motor, and a 5Ah NiMH battery pack. Both the motor and the 25A Mtroniks ESC are water cooled. The top deck has been planked and the seats and other fittings painted.

Filmed at Setley Pond in the New Forest, southern England, home of the Solent Radio Controlled Model Boat Club ( www.srcmbc.org.uk ).
