It´s been a while now but now so far the boat looks like this:
It still need some wore work but it´s starting looking like a boat now.
I have even been in contact with KMB and he said that in August he will have new jets done.
Lets cross our fingers that it will be so.

Soon some plywood
This weekend I hope I will get some 3mm plywood that will be the used when I build the boat.
I have as I wrote before got the engine and are looking if the 40mm jetdrives will be available soon again from KMB, I wont buy these until June but they have not answered any of my emails so I will be a little worried when May ends and I still wont know where and when I can get 2 jetdrives.
That´s it for now, I will write more here as soon something intresting has happend.

It´s been a while since I wrote here but have had alot of other things to do.
I have ordered some wood for the construction of the boat and I hope I get some end of this week or beginning of next. I am still looking into what kind of water jet I should use since I don´t want them too big so they don´t fit, and not too small.
I hope I soon can post some pictures of the progress of the building and engine etc.
Talk soon again :).

Yesss! I have the plans
I have got the plans now. I actually got them one week ago but I have had a bad cold and been busy so no updates because of that.
I show two pictures of the plans I took. Notice the pen in one of the pictures and you see how big this boat is going to be :).
Here is an adress if you want to buy your own plans of this great boat (he also has alot of other plans)

This homepage (company) is located in Poland and I am 100% satisfied with the plans.
I only took pictures of two of five big plans and ten A4 sheets with templates.
Many thanks to you Sebastian :).
I will show more of the plans later on during the building. Now I need to think what way I should build it. One way is to make the bottom piece in two parts and then glue them together. Might be best since then it will be easier to change the inner frames to make room for all things inside the boat.
If you don´t understand what I mean now I am going to show later on when I know what way to do it.

Searching for parts
While I have been waiting on my plans I am searching for some parts I will need later on.
First up is two 40mm water jets. I know a place called KMB that makes them. The downside is that they cost kinda much each, and I need two :(.
Here is a picture how it looks:
The engine I am thinking of is this:
It´s a 26cc gasoline engine and will do the job. I am still looking into what kind of radio I will use.

The start
This is a blog about building a combat boat 90 (RC version). The boat will be in scale 1:12 so it will be around 124cm long and 30cm wide.
I have bought a drawing from Poland and hopefully I get it next week. I will write the adress for the company who makes this later.
