      I think what he want's to know is exactly what is included in SD kit?
      I have the 3.5/2 on order, and I never could get anyone to give me a list either, so I gave up and ordered it anyway. So if no one does, I'll let you know what's included when I get mine. :rolleyes:
      I think it's the 2 chamber plastic-tube with 3 bulkheads, complete vent/blow servo-valve-float-tank assembly, 2 motors (not sure about size of motors) with capacitors and 3to1 gears to shafts, power-wires for external battery and bracketry/linkage for servos and receiver. Rear bulkhead also has rubber-seal type holes for 4 servo linkage rods.
      Did I leave anything out?
      If any of those I listed are Not included I'm gonna be very POed. ;)

      I asked if a parts list was a company Secret, but never got an answer on that either. :D LOL :D

        im looking at one and all you forgot is that the ballast system is tested before delivery and that there is also an equipment tray.

                Rogue,
                The question is, if everything pictured in that Assembled 3.5/2, Is what is included in the Kit form, which is being sold Now? :confused:
                I'm beginning to think it's Not, which will be Very Disappointing, Indeed! :confused:

                  OK The 3.5/2 Sub-driver comes with -
                  Forward bulkhead and prop/pushrod seals.
                  2 motors
                  Equipment tray
                  Ballast bulkhead, servo, gas valve and gas saver, blow valve
                  Gas tank and safety tubes
                  Forward bulkhead
                  Lexan tube and O Ring seals


                  You also need a large Snort system.
                  Props and prop shafts 3/16 shafts. Props are three blades.
                  ADF
                  3 larger servos
                  BT100 Standard Servo (1 each) $11.00
                  ESCSUB10 Sub ESC $59.00
                  KL2 Kli-Cons™ $19.99
                  DUM2014 3/16" Propeller coupling socket and nylon coupling rod $4.00
                  DUM2018 Drive Coupling Socket 3/16" $3.00
                  Batteries = http://www.caswellplating.com/models/vislero.html
                  Did I forget anything?

                  You need to make those forward planes from brass/copper sheet, as the Metcalf castings are incorrect. Use their rear dive planes and rudder, but sand them down thinner.
                  Stop messing about - just get a Sub-driver!

                    kazzer,
                    I'm curious why a BT100 is specified for 1 of the 4 Servos?
                    I'm never used a BT100, is there something special about it?
                    Or is it just that the other 3 need to be larger for the torque required, and it can be smaller to take up less space?

                    Which function is the smaller one used for?

                    Don't forget I need to leave space for the Computer! :D LOL :D

                        It just has a bit more torque and you have plenty of room in the bigger Sub-driver.
                        Stop messing about - just get a Sub-driver!

                          Okay, Thanks,
                          Just seemed strange that I could not find any Specs on it anywhere?
                          Hey, with 'Plenty of Room' maybe I can put in a Multi-Processor Computer? :D

                            Ok, I placed the order today for my subdriver KIT... Ordering it was easy and Mike's wife is very pleasant to work with!! I should have it next week sometime.

                            Looking forward to finally getting this sub wet.

                              Great, maybe I should wait about ordering mine until you get it, to find out what you think. ;)

                              Well, I did tell Mike to put in my order already, so I guess I can't do that. :D

                              I hope they have more than 1 on the shelf? :D
