        Now that the obligatory North American wet-fish-slap-to-the-face pleasantries have been exchanged, what scale are we talking about, Rick? I think the 2.5-3-2.5 Modular SubDriver Bob and I developed might be the critter you need. Give me the weight of the above waterline structures and I can estimate how long that ballast tank has to be.







        As you can see the SubDriver is now physically divided and held together by two union pieces that permit alteration of cylinder length, and change-out of cylinder diameter to suite a specific need. Pretty slick.

        The powerful single brushless motor can be outfitted to output two counter-rotating shafts, such as what is needed for the Kachur Type-7.

          I'm going to guess that it's going to be really close to the Arkmodel Type VII. 8" tank is my guess. 250/300/250 MSD with an 8" tank is what I'd send!

              All seriousness aside, I would like to take a little time to clear up any misconceptions about just who throws squids. The tradition/practice started in Detroit when there were only 6 teams in the NHL and it took winning 8 games to win the Lord Stanley Cup in the playoffs. 8 wins = 8 squid legs - get it?. As a Wings fan from birth - although I harbor a secret love for the Habs - I've been at Olympia Stadium when the invertebrates went airborne.

              So don't blame our neighbors to the South (Detroit is north of Windsor) although a lot of us native Detroiters' ancestors came from Canada - mine included.

              Take off you hoser.

              Dan - eh?

              Born in Detroit - where the weak are killed and eaten.

                I was an Ann Arbor kid. Only thing the Windsor tunnel was good for was easy access to cheap beer, route for draft-dodgers, and visits to a real honest-to-god castle.
