How much psi do you pressurize the tube to . I'm thinking of making my own version and testing it in my back yard pond. If i get success i will post what i have done and go from there. But i will need a little help.

Nominal working pressure of Propellant (Butane/Methane) at room temperature is 70 PSI -- so that's the working pressure of both the launcher and weapons.

Be careful! 70psi doesn't sound like much, but it's enough to do some Projectal Damage.

Mr. Ambassador, I'll take your recommendation under advisement.

(I've only been doing this **** for 20 some years now!).

My warning was mainly for Jim and anyone else, but I don't even want You to Loose an Eye-ball. :D

[deepseadiver]

70 psi sounds like I'm making a rocket, more then a torpedo, but i guess for it to go any distance it needs some go go juice in it right ? I don't want to be putting any kind of flammable gas into it. I would think just good old air brush propellant like what we use for the WTC container for the subs air ballast tank, should work any suggestions please.

Most impressive. You pegged my 'respect' meter.

Those helis are insane. I cant imagine the asking price of one of those turbine choppers after looking at the price of one of my pathetic electrics!


Here is a look at the missile system Ive been working on for my Ohio boat. Not torpedos but the concept is the same.

I found some 6.mm dia. Gear-motors, but they are kinda expensive and they are in U.K. so there would a large shipping charge also.
I have not figured out the shaft coupling on them yet, tho.
So ordering them may be a Gamble.
See Pics:

I'll bet a shilling those motors aren't British. Look more like Chinese.

Get and post the darned torpedo pictures David. You never needed my permission to blow your trumpet before, so what's this wimpy attitude all of a sudden?:rolleyes:

I think you owe me a Shilling, sure looks like they make them.
