Hi all, I have finally got round to be ready to build my Revell Gato, and I cant find the instructions anywhere. I know I had them but as with so many things theyve disapeared just when you need them.
So if any of you kind gents out there have a used copy or could copy their own I would be eternally grateful.
Thanks Bob :-))

You can also get them on line from Revell of Germany. :-)) Here is the URL for them ( http://www.revell.de/manual/05047.PDF ).

Good find Andre! :-))
I've got the Gato kit too and would like to build it as a surface runner... anyone know a build blog like that?

Martin,
That is the easy build, I would put two prop shafts in it just like you would any other plastic kit, and cut the top out of the hull Just like David Merriman for his fully submerged version. I have attached the URL for the whole batch of reports for the Gato build, you may have to register to read them though. ( http://support.caswellplating.com/index.php?_m=downloads&_a=view&parentcategoryid=9&pcid=5&nav=0,5 ) By the way all of the reports for the Gato are there, the numbers jump due to the fact that the missing numbers are for reports to other submarine builds. O0 :-))

Martin, have a word with Paul Cook of the AMS, he's the main man in the UK for Gato r/c conversions.
