    Ha!

    I have yet to perfect the ballast system, Myron! Sure, we'll sell you the motor bulkhead with two counter-rotating outputs, but the rest is up to you. Game?

    Working too many subs need to focus on one.
    this one is based on your Type VII. Yes that wtc fits in that 1 inch opening.

    E-mail Mike Caswell (or call him names on this thread .... that'll get his attention!). Tell him you want three of the little 1.25 motor bulkheads, equipped with counter-rotating outputs. He'll bill you, bother me, and we'll get your product underway.

    What are you going to stick these things into?

    Hey Dave,

    Yes.

    No.

    The Shadow Programmer (not needed by us r/c submariner's) is used with the SL-8 only.

    Another question:

    Would the SL-6 receiver work in this WTC? And do I need the Shadow Programmer to program it??????
    Gonna start on it this weekend!

    I'm a GOD!!!!!

    (crack of thunder)

    Anyway...

    .... Yes, open up some flood-drain holes in the bottom of the hull. And punch a hole in the hull duck under the sail before glueing the sail in place, and open up the bridge atop the sail -- all that to vent off the air within the model as you dunk it underwater to flood the spaces around the SubDriver.

    Zip-cord is two-conductor insulated wiring -- use the smallest stuff you can get. Small gauge 'speaker-hook-up-cord' can be found at Walmart and the like.

    Stop talking and start assembling, damit!

    I received my package today. Workmanship is awesome!. Two questions: 1) It is required to cut out the bottom ballast tank vents on the model and 2) what is "zip cord" ? I'm sure I'll have more as time goes on!

    Aft is the battery, Lipo-Guard and nano ESC. Forward is the ADF and receiver.
