RC tug update and new look at new straight runner

I have glued all the bits back on the tug and I had a little play with an ammo from mig oil streaking pot,out come isn't to back but needs a bit more work,as it's a working tug it's not meant to look new it's old and used and thats what I am going to go for.
the new green straight runner is called emerald,she's hand made and nitro engined,I put a new glow plug in and that's all I have to do as she's all ready to use,I have cleaned the dust off her as she hasn't been used for a few years because of obviously reasons,
it's competition day at boat club tomorrow so I will see if I can get her running and see how she does.

Hi there Riley. Certainly looking like a working scale tug. The Emerald boat looks promising, it’ll be interesting to see how the nitro engine performs. Is there a belt that should go around the starting conical? Look great. Take care and best wishes 😉😊

Hi John there is a belt that's around the top of the shaft that I use with an airplane starter for nitro planes it's the green thing,it a bit like a fan belt,the straight runner is ready to go,I just have to wait till there's a competition to run it. Had the tug at the club today it runs really well and looks great on the water,I didn't take the camera I forgot it left it on the coffee table whoops🤣🤣,I will be doing more weathering over the next few weeks,I am really happy with the wiring I did Stay safe and well
