Thank you guys.
Just a quick reference.
If anyone wants to build this kit, there are two things I definitely recommend.
The first is the fittings kit: http://www.sub-driver.com/fittings-k...tings-kit.html not to be confused with the 1/72 version. This one, as we build, you will see the incredible detail this kit adds.
Here is the Sub-Driver Sam and I are putting in this sub: http://www.sub-driver.com/sub-driver...river-kit.html
This little unit can be used for two shaft or single shaft submarines. Sam likes the Typhoon in Hunt for Red October - I have an old model of it and maybe someday we might try to convert it using this great little Sub-Driver. I think it will fit.
The other electronics can be purchased at the sub-driver.com site and other places as well.
It is fun to show and teach Sam new techniques. He is fixated on the nuclear reactor and we will probably attach it to the stand. Any hints on painting the unit? I am sure this is a completely accurate reactor (especially after looking at what needs to be modified on the sub). Should it be a traditional silver device? Maybe I can find a nuclear warning decal for it :-)
Peace,
tom
