The motor is a Model Slipway supplied motor
and gearbox combination controlled by an Electronize electronic speed
controller. Power comes from two lead gel batteries of 6V 10Ah each laying flat
in the hull, in front of the motor. The batteries have been wired through a
double pole switch to allow the choice of either 6V or 12V running. The radio
gear is standard Acoms 2 channel 27 Mhz.
The model was built following the
instructions and finished with Halfords brand grey primer, with Red primer for
the under water part of the hull. This was then followed by a coat of Plastikote
clear satin lacquer. The figures are modified from 1:48 scale Monogram plastic
model kits.
