Hi Brian, I have one of these for restoration and would love to see a video of it in action. Can’t seem to see the video in your above post, and may have been lost during the webpage move. Any chance of you reloading this video? Thanks in advance.

Sal, I have some photos of the U-5 that I used to have somewhere - I'll search tonight.

It's a super simple set-up - when you see what's inside him, you're going to chuckle 🙂

Thanks MG, much appreciated. Need to make some feet for him and source a remote. Been looking at old 70s wired rc cars with the cabled steering wheel for the latter.  He’s a little worse for wear!

I've seen your repairs - you'll do a great job!
Here are some views for you.  If I recall correctly, this one just had a wire that had popped free of it's joint.
simple set up with a lit dome, free swinging arms, forward/reverse, and a touch of turning 🙂
I have a vid or two as well, but they are pretty much the same as the above vid.


I think you've got the right plan for the rc remote steering.   Good luck!
