Excellent video! I see some using the traditional hand push-rod to engage and retract the screw. I see some doing it without the push-rod. Can that advanced model reverse the screw? Very good video regardless of the answer. It was a remarkable vehicle. Best regards.

@TheSonofmydad Hi, there is no advanced model. They are all the same (well, except one 128 model), but some have been modified by their present owners. It is a shame, because while "improving" the features of the car, such as the one you describe, they actually lessen the originality of the car at the same time. So in conclusion, there was no automated system to lower the propeller, and there was no reverse gear in the water.

What a fun little video! I wish could find one to fix up. Know where I could find one for a reasonable price, schwimmer?

@redreaper2020 Sorry, I have no idea. Glad you like them, though!
