    Fantastic model. Yeah, that stern area is a tight fit, and the plastic tubes for the proper shafts were worthless. I used brass tubing instead.

      Thanks, I could have sworn I set them the same as on U-995 in the photos in Kiel. But I double-checked my photos and you are absolutely correct. I must have accidentally swapped props.

        I used brass tubing for those too =) The plastic was way too bendy and sticky for use as a decent bushing.
