Congratulations on figuring-out the circuitry on the aircraft carrier Robert!

So.. You've got X2 more on the way? If they need battery packs, Amazon has 9.6v./1500mAh NiMh packs with chargers.. (2-pack) for cheap $$

Amazon link

The NiMh packs are less critical of charge "cycling" as opposed to NiCd packs.

They're a "turn-key" replacement..

Just an FYI... That's a 4-cycle plug. I've read that they run HOT.. which could cause timing (detonation) issues. Good to know that the little engine has decent compression though.. Thumbs Up

It cleaned-up nice too!!

Thanks roddie for both comments. I think that all will contain batteries, no reason not to send contained within the ship they are not LI. But, how good will they be. And those have the correct connectors.

And......unobservent me.....I never realized those plugs were 4 cycle until you mentioned it. I didn't even have to check, read it right there on my picture. I do have some 4 cycle engines. Guess I will remove it and find another.

I did have a lot of fun cleaning it up, years on the cabins hutch with the battery compartment open. I was happy that no mouse nested in there. I'm taking up all the quarter round moulding around the baseboards getting ready for carpet. The last major evolution to take place out there.

I was thinking earlier on; that the battery-bay cover may have been left off..

no sign of poops? Reading

Yeah, no poops but better yet no urine. They are nasty little creatures. I often used a leaf blower "air broom" Smile

to clean the cabin, left lot's of stuff floating around the air much of it finding it's place inside the hull. That big black block is just ballast. They did a lot right constructing this thing.

I have been trying to find pictures of the hutch with the ship on it. Had to be sometime after Christmas 2012. I still can't remember how I came about it. I still think Mark and a flea market buy.
