Sea-Jet Evolution Pt No 1266

Racy water sportsman with brushless electric driveAfter many successful years, the time is ripe for a successor to the robbe Sea-Jet - the Evolution.
The new Sea-Jet has been both optically and technically overhauled and re-designed. Learning from the modern competition Race-Jets, the optical appearance is significantly racier than its predecessor to improve its roll stability.
The hull has been made wider and lower.to give the Evolution the power it deserves, we have equipped the Evolution with twin brushless drives. So that the power can be translated into thrust, the props are directly mounted to the motors, therefore no gear boxes or drive-shafts to sap the power. A centrally mounted rudder and optimised hull shape guarantee high manoevrability.
With these attributes, the new robbe Sea-Jet is best prepared to take part in the Evolution class of the Sea-Jet Cup.Specification: Length: 685 mm Width: 240 mm Height: 370 mm Total displacement: 2100 g

Sea Jet Pt No 1066

Radio-controlled water sport boat with ready-made hull and electric power system

The full-size boats on which the robbe Sea-Jet is based originated in the USA, but the machines have now developed into a popular leisure sports pastime around Europe´s beaches.
The robbe Sea-Jet emulates the full-size very accurately, and offers nothing less than 100% fun. The boat´s very low Centre of Gravity means that it cannot capsize, and it is easy to steer around any course. In choppy water it can carry out impressive jumps without any problems. The hull is supplied yellow overall, and is factory-trimmed and glued. To finish the hull all you have to do is apply the self-adhesive decals. A powerful electric motor drives twin contra-rotating surface-piercing propellers through a gearbox. The model is extremely agile, but a two-channel system is perfectly adequate to control it. Power for the motor and receiving system comes from a seven-cell rapid-charge battery. Assembly is just a matter of installing the motor, power system and radio control system, plus assembling and painting the driver figure.
Owning a Sea-Jet gives you the chance to participate in the robbe Sea-Jet Cup competition, which is held in many towns in Germany and Europe. For more information please see the following pages.

Pulla III Pt No 1159

Radio-controlled model of a working ship with salvage crane to 1:25 scale
Fittings set and motor includedIn many harbours of the world you will find examples of the full-size Paula III. These industrious vessels are constantly shunting in and out of port to carry out their work in the coastal regions, around the estuaries of large rivers and in the harbour approaches. Manoeuvrable and very fast for their size, these working ships are employed for all manner of tasks. Amongst their duties are retrieving and laying sea warnings and markers,
clearing away minor obstacles in shipping lanes and transporting special equipment required for marine research.
This wide-ranging versatility gives the imaginative modeller almost unlimited scope for completing and operating the boat.
The Paula III is the ideal model for the beginner and advanced model builder alike, but is likely to appeal to the traditional modeller who enjoys "real" construction work. We recommend the use of a lead-acid battery which gives extremely long running times. The salvage crane can lower various loads over the model´s stern and retrieve them again.Specification:

The Düsseldorf fire-fighting boat was developed and built by the Rheinwerft company of Mainz-Mombach, and it is operated in the Ruhr industrial region of Germany. The vessel is designed specifically to cope with disaster situations, such as a ship on fire, a major oil leak or a harbour system in
danger of explosion, and its fire monitors, operating at a pressure of 10.5 bar, can hurl water or foam 45 m high and a distance of up to 95 m. The two V-12 engines produce a total of 930 kW (1260 BHP), giving the boat a maximum speed of around 37 km/hr.

The Robbe kit of the "Düsseldorf" fire-fighting boat is large and capacious enough to accommodate all the equipment required to emulate the wide-ranging facilities of the full-size vessel. Optional working systems include the fire monitors, crane, anchor winch, radar, searchlights, blue light, horn and siren, and also the sound of the diesel engines. The plastic hull is moulded in thick-walled material, and it offers plenty of space for the numerous mechanical and electronic parts required for the auxiliary working systems.

The model is propelled by two proven robbe Navy-Kompakt power systems, giving it an impressive turn of speed. Four large rudders guarantee extreme manoeuvring capability both forwards and astern. The fire monitors can be swivelled horizontally and vertically from the transmitter, and with the recommended electric geared pump they can fire a jet of water a
distance of 6 - 8 m. If a working boat crane is fitted, the vacuum-moulded rowing board can be raised, swung outboard and lowered to the water in true scale style.

Seawolf V2 Pt No 1014

Model submarine with electric power and dynamic diving system
The Sea-Wolf is the longest serving model in our submarine fleet. Introduced many years ago, it began a successful period of submarine modelling for us which has lasted right up to the present day. In 1998 it was followed by the legendary Type VII boat, the U-47, and finally by our largest model, the Type XXI boat, the U-2540.The Sea-Wolf is the ideal submarine for all modellers, from the ambitious beginner through the modeller interested in a change of direction to the expert and connoisseur. After all, it offers an attractive combination of impressive appearance, reasonable building time and a fair system price.Specification: Length: 900 mm Width: 100 mm Height: 320 mm Total displacement: 4100

German U boat U 47 Pt No 1114

Scale model of a German U-boat to 1:40 scale, with dynamic diving system
fittings and electric motors includedDuring the development stage of our model of the U 47 we concentrated especially on maximum possible scale fidelity, and accurate reproduction of the detail features of the vessel. In spite of its impressive length of more than 1.7 m, the boat is highly manoeuvrable and has a good turn of speed. It features the dynamic method of submerging, and all these features make for a highly realistic model when in and under the water.
An important feature of this imposing boat is the flooding slots in the outer skin, and these are factory-cut in order to shorten the building time. This eliminates the time-consuming work of drilling or machining these openings.Specification:

U-boat U2540 Pt No 1214

Scale model of the type XXI submarine to 1:40 scale for dynamic divingThe U-boat U2540 was built at the Blohm und Voss yard in Hamburg in 1944, and the vessel was commissioned in January 1945. During the crew training phase in early May 1945 the boat was attacked by a British bomber off Fehmarn, and was eventually scuttled by the crew. By this point in history this was a typical fate of the last U-boats commissioned by the German War Navy.The Type XXI boat U2540
Just like the legendary Robbe U47, this model is capable of submerged running using the dynamic method of diving. The model is almost 2 metres long, and consists - like the U47 - of a fore ship and after ship joined together by a central screwed joint. When the two parts are separated, the motors and RC equipment assembly can be withdrawn from the pressure vessel. This model also features pre-cut flooding slots to save the modeller the time-consuming task of drilling and/or machining the openings. In contrast to the U47 the forward hydroplanes are controlled by a servo, rather than mechanically by means of a paddle.

U31 212 Class Submarine Pt No 1215

1 : 40 scale dynamic-diving model of the German Federal Navy’s 212-class submarine

The full-size boat:
These subs were developed at the Howaldtswerke-Deutsche Werft GmbH (HDW) dockyard in Kiel. It is the world’s first submarine type to be equipped with a hybrid fuel cell power system. Basically the boat is propelled by an electric motor. For surface running the motor is powered by a diesel generator, but when the boat is submerged, electrical current is supplied by a hydrogen fuel cell system. U 31 was the first 212 A class to be built, and the vessel was launched in March 2002; this is the basis for our model.

The model:
The model of the U 31 has been developed and built using proven methods of construction and pre-fabrication, i.e. the same methods used on the U 2540. However, the diameter of the pressure vessel has been increased by 35 mm in order to give the large hull the stiffness required.
The pressure vessel is fitted with an internal multi-part CNC-machined installation frame, which houses all the essential RC and electrical system components. Just like the full-size sub, model of the U31 features a New ultra-modern power system: in this case a slow-reving, high-torque brushless electric motor to provide large amounts of very usable thrust .

Schutze High Speed Mine Sweeper

Schutze was built as a high-speed minesweeper of the "Schütze" class these were commissioned in the German Federal Navy in 1960.
The armament consisted of one 40 mm cannon, plus comprehensive special equipment for mine seeking and sweeping.

The model:
The Schütze is a new version of a vessel which has been part of our model boat range for many years, and since its ´decommissioning´ more of our customers have enquired about this boat than virtually any other model.
Since we did not want simply to resume production of the ´old´ model, we decided to carry out a complete revision of the entire kit.
The geared motors formerly used have been superseded by powerful direct-drive motors. The high level of pre-fabrication of the detail parts and fittings make the Schütze a great choice for any modeller with relatively little experience in building scale models.
When the robbe ´Schütze´ cuts through the water at high speed, it is almost indistinguishable from the full-size vessel.

Length: 1200 mm Width: 200 mm Scale: 1:40 Total displacement: 6000 g
