Well you did your best to sink her, if she was a speedboat she would have been well out of the way by now.
Is that the normal speed that she runs at??

My little Modeen was lest loose, runs really well apart from the need for solid fuel, I will sort that though.

It has radio, but I dont use it,
Just a case of set the rudder to stun and off you go.
