          Dave had this preproduction model at a recent event of the Elite Fleet. The first ever run was OK but had some issues. He brought it back to the bench and did some tweaking including transmitter adjustment on controls. The second run was a dream runner. Ran strait until rudder was applied then it was very responsive in a turn. Further test runs will come at next months run when I hope to get allot of stick time.

              Sure, but would you be more specific as to what techniques/materials you want me to present. In the interim I suggest you search my past posts at this forum. A wealth of knowledge on display, all you have to do is look for it.

                        If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.

                          LOL. You caught me, pal.

                          F you!

                          Yeah. I was thinking ALBACORE while I was working BARB. What a dumb-ass!
