Hooben Perkasa 1:32 Kit
(B-HB010)

Hooben Perkasa 1:32 Kit
(B-HB010)The Perkasa was
the lead boat of a class
of four vessels built by
Vosper Thornycroft in
Southampton for the Royal
Malaysian navy in 1967.
Four others were built
for the Royal Navy. The
original was powered by
three Rolls Royce Proteus
gas turbine engines of
4250HP each, giving a
maximum speed of 54
Knots. Two smaller diesel
engines were used for
slow speed manouevring.
Armament consisted of one
40mm Bofors gun, one
twin 20mm Oerlikon,
anti-aircraft machine gun
and four 21"
torpedos on side mounts.
The model has a blow
moulded hull with
integral deck, giving
great strength,
durabilty and effectice
waterproofing. The top
cabin and detail parts
are made of injected
styrene and etched brass,
which build up into an
amazingly detailed
representation of this
powerful torpedo boat.
This is a true builders
model that will give the
owner many satisfying
hours of detailed
construction and result
in a finished boat to be
proud of. If you have
built a detailed, scale,
plastic model before,
there will be no
surprises (other than
nice ones!). Although the
vast majority of the
detail is already
contained in the kit,
there is still scope for
the owner to add
something more. If you
decide to fit a third
motor system to make her
really scale, please
remember that you will
need an ESC of at least
100A and the rudders will
have a reduced effect.
Detailed information is
given on the box for the
paint colours to be used,
plus a diagram within
the instructions of where
to apply them. Further
reference can be made to
the colour photographs on
the box. The kit is
supplied with two 550
size, brushed motors
plus mounts, shafts and
propellers. A compatible
ESC will be available as
an optional item. All you
will then need is basic
2-Channel radio and a 6
cell Nimh battery pack of
around 2500mAh or more.
We recommend the KMS 80A
Twin Marine ESC,
Hi-Energy 6 cell 3300mAh
Nimh and Sanwa Dash Saber
radio.
