Not that I know of.
My model was based on instructions which are one of the projects in back of this book.
Model in book has no stern planes; rudder is sheet tin you bend; screw is likewise bent out of sheet tin; and the rest is likewise that basic.

Here's full album, includes a short video from a couple years ago.

Getting ready to check the album. Just looked on ebay for the book, no luck but there are three of the Aviation books from this series for $8 each.

That sub is totally awesome. Great photos of it diving. Really like the prop wash when near the surface.

What did you rig up for the prop?

Just watched the video. It really moves out fast!
