Pictures around the prop supports and loading area would be useful for sure.
We actually rescued our model from a junk shop for £5, it came with instructions and still had parts on sprues. It is dated back in the 70s.
But like you we are completely upgrading. We have 3x 600 motors running seperate esc's, the outer most have a switch(still to wire up) which will kill the inside motor on hard turns. Also have 3 7.2v nicad units and seperate battery for rx and all the running lights and motors for radar dish spinning etc and operating(eventually) a lift mechanism. Not sure we are going to need much more in way of ballast. But she is looking good.
Hull and parts were very fragile, so has required alot of repairing and strenghtening.
The Vegesack needs equal amount of work as someone had upgraded, but it's crying for a refurb
