RC Slope Soaring in Hong Kong

While the crazy pilots were sheltering under the thunderstorm at Ma On Shan today, we chattered about the Blue Ribbon Speed Boat. Though a bit off topic, it is much enjoyable if you are kidult and are aged enough.

錯！係放完船仔先至玩飛機，你見都果D係 回憶黎架！

OK, before Stanley complaining that I am hijacking this thread, here is the mini boat MOM at Victoria Park last Sunday after wetting through from MOS.

也呢隻係藍絲帶咩 ﹖ size 就差唔多﹐顏色都岩﹐但明明記得個頭好大成把鏟咁架渦﹐唔係咁樣架渦....

Hi YC,
I know that you will pump in some time.
The previous japanese link is the treasure of Blue Ribbon. Just kick the bottom index bar to refresh all Blue Ribbon that you have owned.
By the way, several F3F pilots have one or two unbuilt Blue Ribbons. (No matter they are re-released or the vintage ones)
The movie is the Reef Racer from Aquacraft. We have several ships here to have fun together

This is the Blue Ribbon I have owned

Equipped with NiCd, it's the speed king in the pool of Victoria Park.

But that was long long long time ago..... gee...I miss those days

非常之多正嘢睇, 包括肥輝喜愛的日本科幻太空船及潛艇

My first Blue Ribbon Super was long long ago, primary school

Now I still have a new in the box Blue Ribbon Super. Same as this

睇到呢幅相﹐D記憶返晒黎....
果時街尾間玩具鋪都有擺呢款出黎﹐但呢隻成條臘腸咁﹐個人唔多鍾意﹐所以都係買左“飯鏟頭”果款,貪佢型D.....阿 Wing 仲記唔記得隻藍絲帶當年賣幾錢 ﹖好似係 10 蚊樓下 .....

仲記得當年玩船仔好興改長條軸﹐令隻車葉突出過船尾﹐話咁會快D﹐細個果陣人話就跟﹐無點驗證過....

I recalled many many years ago it costed about HK$3 - HK$5 with RE-260 motor. I bought it because I think 成條臘腸 will run faster

Of course, not disappointing that when she run in Mei-Foo water pool, she used to be faster simply with such basic 1.5v x 2 + RE-260

Few years ago (2004?) when I spotted a few boxes in Kong Wah Street, without any thought I immediate purchased one box for myself - so touching that the quality & details and nice memories all far exceed HK$18

I am still struggling if I should start building this new one with today's advanced technologies (r/c brushless) or continue keeping her in the time capsule
