      Sorry Folks! If you look at the old original actual photos out there you will see the split angled two sided prop. I am sure that the RC model you show has a two bladed prop similar to an aircraft propeller. Thank you very much for your input!

      Honestly, I am really not interested in trying to make this boat totally operational. I do have a WTC installed and it is operational! (check my blog) Also the print files for this boat were for a 22" plus cut-away static model, not for RC operation. I built the Ictineo ll, the Turtle (not operational, and which will be finished today) the HL Hunley, the HMS Holland, and the SM UC 5 U-boat (which are RC operational boats) just for the historical and a certain time period of submarine development.

      Moving on to my next series of projects!!
