DESCRIPTION

These files will enable you to build a 3D working RC model of the famous British cruiser HMS Belfast, nowadays a museum ship on the River Thames in London. At 1/96th scale she will be an impressive 1950mm long but she can just as easily be built at a smaller scale and still be an impressive working model. She is designed to be built on a filament printer with a bed of 220mm cubed.

The original ship the last of the ten Town class cruisers, and the largest and most powerful of the class was completed just before WW2 and within months of launching had been seriously damaged after hitting a mine in the North Sea. She was in dry dock being repaired for the nexty two years before serving in the D-Day landings and in the Arctic convoys to Russia, and then in the Far East. In the 1950s she was in the Korean War. In 1959 she received a major refit and the model represents the ship in its final form, in which she was preserved on the River Thames.

As a model although she has four propellor shafts, only the inner two are powered, giving plenty of power and manoeuvrability for the model. There is plenty of access to batteries, motors and radio gear. She needs around six kilograms of ballast to bring her to her waterline. She works well, looking very impressive on the water, is very stable even in windy conditions.
