The units are stern drives, not outboard lower units. In all my 47 years of RC model boating, I've never seen one of these units actually installed on a model boat. That's not to say they wouldn't work.

It would seem like there would be a limited market for the units. As much as anything, they are collector items.

Well I listed them here on the market place , I found a couple on the auction site that had sold previously for lots of cash, and one currently listed missing lots of parts that is going near 200. I guess folks collect anything that looks cool! ( thats how I got them LOL)
