I built one of these as an Aurora kit, and I remember the little hatch at the top that showed the atomic reactor. How in the name of God, could you build an RC sub this small? What a glutton for punishment, but what a brilliant design. My hats off to you, David.Last edited by Das Boot; 04-03-2026, 07:42 PM.Of the approximately 40,000 men who served on U-boats in WWII, it is estimated that around 28,000 to 30,000 lost their lives.Comment

Fair question. Though the horizontal stabilizer parts will be subject to most 'collision damage' underway -- and CA adhesive is subject to fracture under shock-loads -- a fusion joint would be the preferred attachment method. However, as there is so much 'footprint' between horizontal stabilizer root and surface of the stern, I figured that a CA bond would be substantial enough to resist breaking as a consequence of being hit by other craft or sides of the pool. And, using CA, eliminated the need on a fusion weld to change state through solvent evaporation... in old age I'm become less tolerant of delay.
