Usually a depth controller will be routed solely to the front planes on a separate channel, with the pitch controller routed to the rear planes.operating either automatically or with optional manual override.

1/45 scale Engel Type IX U848 Uboat at Subfest 2021 being followed by a ROV.

Nice video.

It is interesting to see the for and aft plane movements and periodic pitch movement of the boat - I assume there is an automatic pitch controller fitted

The boat has a pitch control and depth control with both the bow and stern planes tied to them. There is the possibility that the pitch control needs to have it's sensitivity adjusted. This was the first time its performance underwater was observed.
