But the remote-controlled iceberg on a scale of 1:200 is still missing.

[@pricelessppp]

With titan sub! 😂

[@vonSchwarzschild]

@@pricelessppp unable to reach 1/200 of 3800m

[@corvidflight19]

It needs to sink too! Add some water tight compartments so it sinks right!!!

[@somethingtojenga]

You actually want to get the waterline about a quarter inch BELOW where the red meets the black. That's the 'antifouling line' where the antifouling paint ends, and that red paint is meant to keep barnacles off the side of the ship. Usually the ship would be riding just below that line to account for wake or other disturbances splashing the barnacles up against the side of the ship. If your waterline is RIGHT at the red paint line, there's no protection just above the water.

[@ryans413]

G deck is right where the black paint end and the red starts. The ship actually had a bit of red above the water. He added a little too much weight

[@somethingtojenga]

@@ryans413 That's... exactly what I said

[@tonygibson8809]

I’ve been wanting this for years for my self beautiful ship 🚢

[@MotionRC]

it's even more impressive in person

[@tylerspencer-1225]

Wondering if they ever think about doing our famous great lake ore freighter "Edmund Fitzgerald" that would be my dream to see. Im pretty sure many others.

[@patrickh4540]

Edmund Fitzgerald would be awesome. I'm going to put Gordon Lightfoot on right now.

[@nickademuss42]

"Still scale speed" *torpedoes through the water doing maneuvers that would kill more passengers with flying furniture than any iceberg ever could, while casually parting the seas and pushing along a wall of water at least 10 meter high* xD

[@robertshabarekh610]

😂👍

[@singleproppilot]

“Scale speed” would look ludicrously slow. Titanic cruised at 21 knots (24 mph). Divide by 200 and that’s 0.12 mph. It would be like watching grass grow.

[@firebythewater4477]

Love the detail. Pretty sure the water didn't get that high on the sides when it was underway. May have to buy this just for display.

[@instrumentaldude8349]

The waterline is a little to high. Aside from that, great model!

[@jackbrechwald8344]

Why are the life boats uncovered. Doesn’t it rain in the Atlantic?

[@SSNFastAttack]

Nice video. The curvature that you see in the hull and subsequently the superstructure is called sheer. I've found that to minimize the detachable decks warped appearance required sliding it backwards angled just a tad, thereby landing the aft portion of the superstructure 1st followed by the bridge. It keeps that unsightly gap in the back from showing or becoming so pronounced. Also, don't over tighten the center screws or it bends the deck as well. Cheers

[@JohnVHRC]

Thats a beauty!

[@TitanicLover401]

[@LITTLE1994]

Awesome model

[@emilbt7588]

If someone wants a ready to run 1/200 titanic then i could see this ond being tempting. I would personally just buy the trumpeter kit and convert that to rc. It'd be more work but probably a bit cheaper and it includes lights.

[@StreamwoodExplorer]

Cheaper? Highly unlikely. Reliable? Not even remotely.

[@emilbt7588]

@@StreamwoodExplorer the kit can be bought for 350€ where i am at and the rc equipment would je around 150-200€ at least.

[@ministryofanti-feminism1493]

@@emilbt7588 How much is your time worth? It would take MANY man-hours to complete the Trumpeter to a high RC standard.

[@CitizenMio]

​@@ministryofanti-feminism1493 I don't think anyone would really want to build one just to save money. Upfront cost can be lower, as you can spread out your purchases as you build. But primarily people who build them would do it because that's a huge part of the fun for them. Obviously that's not true for everyone, so it's great that those people have this option. But I thought the same as OP, for that amount and given I'd still change quite a lot of things. I'd rather build my own. (And then end up spending the same if not more and work on it for half a decade. But that's fine by me ;)

[@FlankerTanker]

Lets see it sink then

[@mpojr]

that would be the same has flushing 1400 bucks down the drain

[@trixta16]

[@dedekcze7152]

Maybe stupid idea but why don't replaced these screws with some strong magnets and opening without screwing?

Wow! I'm sold!

[@soniaellis163]

Well done you got the funnels right , i see so many great detailed models but they get the funnels wrong , because they go by the james cameron model in the movie and its wrong.

[@JavierJaimes-uy5ln]

I might get this when I save up enough money

[@Titanic_person-1912]

I got a suggestion for a 2.0 version of that ship (if there ever be one) could you add the watertight bulkheads aka big non roof top walls in the bottom, and if possible could you add an iceberg that can float as well as make a small door at the front right bottom side of the ship and make it open and close to let water in? As well as make it all water proof? That would be amazing if you did that!

[@yiman7370]

My problem is those screws, the lack of windows in the hull, and NO LIGHTS, also the hull is too thick wich would be unrealistic. I prefer the trumpeter model

[@tcorp5089]

When will this be in stock again? Looking to get one ASAP!

[@NorfolkAndWestern611]

It’s so beautiful just so expensive

[@michaelhernandez6065]

@Motion RC I have a question. Could you buy it already built or you have to build it yourself?

[@MotionRC]

This model comes ready to run. All built up, just have to add a few accessories

[@inpaeingles2802]

Question, why not add a revs reduction device? Watching Titanic speeding up like a pT boat is quite ridiculous. Otherwise, great job...

[@victorrcjets7660]

The captain you can do whatever you want, better that it didn't come out in the winter time😅

[@nascarnbroncosfans6055]

Is the Trumpeter 1:200 kit your base model? - the stern screw warning sign is on the wrong side of the railing

[@Rememberingcivilwarhistory7744]

no bilge pump considering its the Titanic seems like a good idea

Technically the waterline should be just ever so slightly below the line where the black and red meet like 1-2 millimetres below it

Nice nice. Does it come with a titan sub too as a bonus

[@PIlotrcm]

Cool but it should move at half that speed for “fast” for scale

The 4 Wing Propeller is wrong. The Titanic had three threewing propellers.

[@giggling_boatswain]

6:59 In fact, no one knows how many blades the central propeller had. All available photos are photos of Olympic propellers, not Titanic. It is known that the White Star Line Company experimented with different propellers with different numbers of blades. There are reports of this. The three-blade gave more speed, but also more vibration compared to the four-blade. The central screw of the Titanic is hidden under the soil. The central screw did not have a reverse and worked only in the forward direction. The drive was from a steam turbine using exhaust steam after reciprocating engines (the energy of such steam was still enough to spin the steam turbine). Piston engines drove the side propellers.

[@ze_german_kraut]

I think a few years back, they found a Harland & Wolff Engineering Book with all their Ships Config. Stating that Titanic and Britannic both used 3 Propeller Blades where Olympic used 4 Blades to Test it out. But i think they changed it back afterwards to 3 Blades on the Olympic. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fovVnmpvnNGlnac

[@corvidflight19]

They showed them on one of the dives down to it's rusting place in the Atlantic, on a documentary. I can't remember witch one. But they found the number 401 on the propeller, and that's how they proved that it was the Titanic, and wasn't switched as the conspiracy theory said!

Its not neccesary. That ship is unsinkcable. Basically the boats its for transporting from one ship to another in normal dock operations. Extra boats only makes ugly the upper deck.

@@RmasterD At least you got it 🙄

[@Jprager]

No lifeboats?? Why am I not surprised. Nice use of Celine Dion though

[@russellstone9056]

Design flaw; they used unfinished plywood under the superstructure which warps badly and causes excessive sheer (curvature) which looks horrible. The only solution is to drill and glue nuts under the rear deck near the aft part of the superstructure. Drill through the superstructure and deck on top of the main hull so the holes align perfectly. When the nuts are good and dry, screw the aft part of the superstructure down flush. You can heat the bottom of the superstructure with a hairdryer on medium or high heat and it will flatten out so it will be easier to screw down flush. Why they did not add screws to the rear of the superstructure is a good question. Motion didn't have any parts. So I purchased small machine screws and nuts and washers from Home Depot. I glued the nuts to washers before attaching them under the holes drilled in the deck. The washers add extra reinforcement in the area. Maybe overkill but I didn't want any deformities in the deck from warping pressure. Looks much better.

[@Sh4dow682]

so how much? Websites dont work

I have been a TITANIC TRAGIC since my grandma told me about her. Grandma was a 6 year old when Titanic Sank, and I was a five year old when she told me about the sinking. I have been hooked ever since. My dad was a Naval Chief Engineer who served with the Royal Navy; who also encouraged my dream of building a model of Titanic. I purchased an ENTEX Kit which my then 6 year old son and I put together. The two of us are now 78 years of age and 52 years of age respectively. I joined the TITANIC HISTORICAL SOCIETY based at Indian Orchard Massachusetts back in 1976. Can you kindly advise how much this model would cost, as I would love to buy on for my 18 year old grandson who has built himself a model of Titanic. If you could advise me of the price and the name and address of the company which manufactures them; I would be very grateful. PS. I now live in Australia.
