Next Progress (2)
Next note, hit the five picture limit! I was having some air getting trapped forward of the air bottle so I lowered it about 1/16th inch. This reduced the width of the sealing area at the top. The last two are under way. I'm still learning to control it. Getting the hang of it fairly good, at least no power dives into the pool liner or breaches with the sub flipping upside down! So far I'm running without the ADF connected. Now that it's balanced pretty good & I'm figuring out how to use the dive planes I'll turn it on pretty soon. Did find one problem today, the equipment chamber is leaking quite a bit, I think it's one of the motor shaft seals.
