    A newbie Nautilus Nut

    Hi, All:
    New here and until now, a static builder. A fellow member both here and nautilussubmarine.com, Bob Martin, has peeked my interest in R/C. The logical next step, I guess.
    Wanted to show some pics of previous builds, mostly Nautili with one DeBoers Seaview mixed in.
    Thanks for looking.
    Tommie

        Tom........Welcome! The Nautilus that has no wheel house but instead has a lighted dome of glass amidships, what is that? Also, Caswell offers everything that you need to RC your eight window Seaview 2 there. Ive not heard of anyone else doing it. Ive toyed around with the idea myself. Perhaps you will be the first.

          Welcome Tommie!
          Do you prefer Tom or Tommie?

          Great work! I followed the modified Nautilus on the Nautilus forum. It came out great (His alias is vismus).

          Is it time for you to R/C one?
          Peace,
          tom
          If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.

                  Greenman:
                  I redesigned several Nautili, this was the third and most radical. The dome is the repositioned wheelhouse and echos
                  the design of the salon blisters. This Nautilus is how I envisioned Nemo's modifications would have looked had he done so.

                    Wonderful job! Shows you have a great imagination, and your not afraid to make modifications to further your own evil(LOL)ends. Your just the type we need on here. Looking forward to seeing more from you in the future.
