Hi Quorky, yes i did find the one's you can change the battery. But i did manage to change the battery in my old one and it's working fine now. Thanks for your help Quorky.

It was a lot easier than i thought it would be. It's just a case of cutting round the seam, then de-solder the contacts,lift the circuit board up as the battery is underneath it. Then re-solder then glue the two halves. The only fiddly bit was the soldering Quorky.

I'm thinking of mounting it on a boat (any suggestions on this Quorky) or should i just tow it with the boat?

It's an old motor launch that i've been modifying . I think i can make a bracket for the transmitter. 'll take a photo of the launch Quorky for you to have a look at( won't be till next week as i'm at work for the next few day's.
