An excellent read from John Mianowski on the North Texas Battle Group website. While geared more towards the building of a scale combat ship (yes the ones that fire BB's at each other) the principles apply towards any warship construction...like how to read plans and how to lay out a hull and skin it.

Thanks for the link Chip. Like what is stated in the text, "Big Gun R/C Warship Combat has got to be just about the ultimate big-boys' toy", I have to agree with this. Not only do you have to know how to build (and repair) your model but you must be good at combat also. I would like to see these ships in action.
