Very nice aircraft model photos you are posting Ken. Before my time and not being versed up on the original aircraft, what are the actual dimensions of your model (ie: length and wingspan) when built to 1:48 scale? That`s a good suggestion too from Tony, re:a fan for turning the props. If your camera is up (or down) to it, a slower shutter speed would certainly give the impression of prop movement.

Hello Donald: For the Short S8 dimensions are: LOA: 17" Span:23.5" Height: 6". At 1/4 inch per foot (1:48 scale) that translates to a wingspan of 94 feet! A good sized aircraft,but lots of wing area required to lift the craft given the considerable drag (water and air) and low power of the early aero engines.
Also respecting the prop motion,not possible with digital,it even stops both main and tail rotors on a Sea King! Hope this is of help. Rgds,Ken
