To All,
Here's the deal. I want to totally separate my 'engine room' from the ballast tank for a couple of reasons which you may not agree with and I won't enumerate here but hear me out.
For the moment, let's agree that that's a good idea. I'm thinking of using two receivers, both on the same channel, each with its own battery. One would be in the 'engine room' to control the ESC, rear dive planes, and the rudder. The other would be mounted in a ballast compartment to control the ballast system.
If the 'engine room' ESC came to smash and its BEC failed, the receiver in the ballast compartment could, at least, blow the tanks and hopefully surface the sub.
What would the pros and cons be of such an idea? Don't just tell me I'm crazy - that's a given. I want sound technical reasons.
