Welcome to my Trumpeter 1/200 RMS Titanic Radio Control Conversion Build.
I haven't built a model for over 20 Years and the Trumpeter Titanic is very detailed but I fancied giving this a go and recording it in the hope that others might find my videos helpful rather than a How-To.
In this video I show how I installed my Bronze cast Propellers from the Facebook Trumpeter Build Tips and Tricks Page. I also show how I installed the Hull plating and detail set from Minibrass, aswell as the Hull Plating kit from Woodys Model Works and more!

Beautiful job...love the riveted hull plating on those ships. Almost reptilian

Hi, I have been waiting to see another modeller building the hull shell plating! I have assembled the sheets and experienced the same little problems with some of the plates being a little short. I made replacements as each problem arose to correct the length. The stern section was the bit that bothered me most in knowing where to start the section! You did a good job on this and I may give mine a go when I feel brave!!! Great video!😉

Cheers Johnny! I started by dry fitting it first from the front and seeing where it ended up. Just use tape to hold each section in place. Then you can see where the plating ends, hope this helps!

@@thetitanicbuild Yeah that sounds a good plan. I will give that a go later today as it's grotty out! I made things more difficult by correcting the shape of the hull quite drastically. I followed Nigel's modelling bench methods which were quite radical but did correct the hull shape, so it is much more elegant and truer to the original. I am converting mine to the RMS Olympic, circa 1930's which was the final rendition of the Olympic class and obviously the only sister to stay afloat! I have practically everything from Woody's upgrades, Pontos and the KA sets. The same stuff as you have too but don't tell my wife!!!!! Mine will be a static show cased model but with working propellers and super detailing.......well that's the plan! Anyway, keep up the good work! 😉

I’ve got to look at correcting my hull warping but that won’t be until I start my superstructure, Cheers Johnny!

The centre propeller had 4 blades?

Not according to Harland and Wolff records

The most accurate 1:200 Titanic Propellors you can get that actually push water. Not to mention the anchors!

What did you use for gluing the hull plating? I'll be tackling this soon as well

@thetitanicbuild Год назад

I used Tamiya Extra Thin and applied it about an inch at a time. It does slightly melt the plates which for me is good because it’s RC, but only if you use too much. It can melt them to the point they may need filling though. It happened in a few places on mine but nothing that can’t be repaired. Also if you make a mistake and are quick it can be removed but the longer it dries the harder plates can be to remove again without damaging them.
