Now, this is more like it

I started again with the Regner powerplant, and it's much, much better. And cleaner, too. There were a fair few difficult moments, especially when I had to silver solder the pipes from the boiler to the engine. Got there in the end, though.


It runs pretty well. The boiler and gas tank are mounted on a plate above the suspension, and the radio gear is held above the gearbox. The only exception is the steering servo, which needs to be on the same level as the clutch lever.

Time for a good few trial runs and then a strip down and rebuild once I've decided what to do with the bodywork.
