LARK Water Taxi
Return to Home
And finally, a shot of the Lark on a convenient spot while she waits to have her first flotation trial...
And these pictures show the placement.
The scale roof has no cross piece across the entrance, but I left it in for robustness.
And the stern shows the figures mounted on the battery cover.
This shot shows the rather cramped motor compartment. The receiver is to the starboard of the motor, while the ESC is to the port. Small LiPos would make the packing easier...
The original LARK was 45ft making the model around 1:24th. 'Garden Scale' railway figures at 1; 22.5 or 1:25 match this well. Paint them and attach them to the seats with a thin self-tapping screw...
The 3-D print files included with the kit are a bit delicate, since they are scale representations of the original fittings. Mostly they are stainless steel silver.

The hull is white above the waterline and grey below, with a red boot topping. I used an automobile red plastic 'go-faster' stripe.
