Day 56: tiny Hunslet 22hp 4wDM 'Sweet Pea', only done properly this time

Some may remember a while ago I made a kit for Hunslet 22hp 4wDM 1786, also known as 'Courage' or 'Sweet Pea'. However, the Mk1 was a bit too fast to really be usable, and eventually got broken while trying to modify it to reduce the speed. Now I've worked up the 'Courage' to have another go at it (sorry), and the Mk2 is underway, and works! The pickups are a bit crude, but work, and it's much slower than last time, although I've only managed to test it with a 9v battery so far. Time to get the controller out...

A kit, availability?

Hopefully it will be, I need to wait for lockdown to finish properly before I can get the right gears and bits to make the chassis work a little better and get rid of the big ugly pickup underneath.

 

If you want to know when it does get released, keep an eye on ts3dmodels.blogspot.com or this thread.
