This little boat has proven to be a major hit with model submariners in general and R/C modellers in particular. The detail depicted is superb and spot on with the prototype and at around £50 for a kit it represents excellent value for money.

   We at R&R recognised the potential of the “Skippy” as soon as we saw the first models and set out to produce a conversion kit so it could be easily converted to radio control.

540 type drive motor
