A very interesting and sometimes challenging tug to build. the bridge scissor lift mechanism works well from the plans but you need to make sure you keep the bridge weight as low as possible. I managed to get the mast to lower on a link off the scissor mechanism to add realism to mine as well as micro motors to rotate the radar heads. its a set of plans well worth some time building right, but much fun in the water too once complete.
