I know RC warships are a niche market and I don’t expect to get many subscribers but if you come across this video please like and then share in any model groups you may belong to or to people you feel may be interested. Many thanks.

Main problems of such RC-warships are the costs to build them and their requirements on place. For me, living in a 40 qm mansion only scale 350 is possible. But your Iron Duke is nice

What a beauty. I love the scale speed. I have a napkin ring made from a piece of teak decking from the Iron Duke herself.

Its quite an impressive RC model. The Iron Duke was the best of the four ships in that group. Best shot too. I do admire the early dreadnoughts from before the outbreak of the first world war. Not just any person could make such a model to the high standard that one can see here.

My grandfather would have been proud! Come and have a look at "Jutland Animation" if you haven't seen it yet. Anther Iron Duke (Beautifully scratch-built by Ron Horabin) is up at the SeaWar Museum in Denmark.
