Seaview

[Kazzer]

Great work!! I always liked the 8 window version. I am in the process of building a Debour hulls Seaview. If it comes out as good as yours I will be very happy.

Perhaps you should enter your model in this competition.

What I hate is his skill in running deep and leveled. The pond is an absolute dream for RC subs to run.

Thats Devils Den near Ocala, Florida. In the summer its as green as antifreeze, but during the winter it clears up. One year it was so clear it was amazing and you could see way down. This place is a wonderland for scuba divers and this pond was made to be like a playground for divers. About 50 yds. away is the cave for really deep diving. The lady who runs the place wont let us go in there as she says we interfere with the divers. Ill search thru my videos and see if I can find a video of Aquadeeps sub in here that I shot for him and youll see the various water conditions.

Guess what? This forum will support Photobucket but not a direct link to a particular video. The one I was going to post is the second row all the way on the right. Feel free to watch any of the others. http://s297.photobucket.com/albums/m...enoscar116.mp4

I mentioned before that the 12 volt speed 400 long can motors are no longer available from Graupner but they still offer the 7.2 volt 400s.

MFA sell the 12 volt 5 pole 385 motors, if that's of any help.

We have a new selection of motors. These are already fitted with suppressors.

Going by the specification (17500RPM at 12 volts) that motor is a different wind to the MFA version which is 12000RPM at 12 volts. I don't know how those two compare in specification with the Graupner motor.

Does the speed make much difference to a model submarine? It's a log in the water at best.
