Default RE: Martin PBM Mariner

Hi Sparkie,

I saw your article in MAN an immediately went to rcstore.com and bought the plans. I hope to recieve them in a couple of weeks or so and hopefully start the construction this winter. The plane looks awesome and struck me at first sight!!!

If I'm not bothering you, I would like to ask you a couple of questions:

1) where can we find the canopies and gun turrets you used in your model? Did you make them yourself or found them from another kit? I did not find any indication about that in the article.

2) I would like to fly the plane at international semi-scale contests here in Europe. Where did you find the documentation? I searched the Internet in the last days but did not find anything useful (aside from old b/w photos and badly scanned 3-views)

3) I might want to fly the model electric: do you think additional weight can be saved in the construction and -if yes- where?

Thank you very much in advance and best regards,
-Fabrizio
