My research group at UVA is looking for a RC sub for use in a salt water pool. The Revell Skipjack and conversion kits from Caswell look like a good option for our work. I was hoping someone with experience with this model can provide details about the speed and turning radius or any potential issues with salt exposure. I have zero experience with running or building RC models so any advice or other recommendations would be appreciated. I assume I need to purchase:
Revell Skipjack Model, Sub-Driver & Fittings Kit
The Revel Skipjack Electronics Kit:
BT50 2 x Micro Servos @ $8 each
ESCMN 1 x Nano Speed Controller $29.00
AK1 1 x ADF Pitch Controller and Failsafe $79.00
SL675 1 x Nano Radio Receiver 75mhz with crystal $38.00
KSE002-LPG 1 x LiPo Guard Battery Saver $49.95
V800 1 x 800 Mah LiPo Battery $18.00
VC1 1 x Battery Charger For 7.2V Batteries $23.00
Anything I may be overlooking? Thanks
