You know who I am, Yeah!... I'm THAT guy!

And I'm willing to set up and administer a program to pair up mud-puppy's with sea-daddy's.

The objective is to train the next generation of successful r/c model submarine assemblers and drivers; to save this hobby from extinction!

If this is to work I need from you people... and I need it NOW... a list of names of perspective sea-daddy's and mud-puppy's. So, e-mail me (dmeriman@aol.com) your name, contact information, what skills you bring to the table, and what classification you fall under.

We 'experts' are dropping like flies. Time to transfer that vital Tribal-Knowledge on to the younger folk is long overdue. Failure to pass it on will result in the eventual loss of this hobby to the America's.

STEP UP!

However, it appears to me that most rc submariners routinely take rx power off of the esc. I am wondering what others see as pros snd cons of using a dedicated rx battery. Thank you.]]> GENERAL TOPICS Timothy L https://forum.rc-sub.com/forum/general-topics/196662-dedicated-receiver-battery
