Assembling the Merriman 2.5" Standard WTC

[He Who Shall Not Be Named]

I, of course, remain blameless should your precious SubDriver take on water .... it's YOUR fault!

That out of the way ...

... Take the servos out, invert the device tray-bulkhead assembly and don't sweat running the hoses up to the nipples.

Man! You people!

Damn the torpedoes !
Hoses to the nipples !

Why does it sound dirty when you say it?

David,

I admit it, I'm stumped. I simply can't figure how to get 10 lbs. of ^%#$^% in a 5 lb. WTC.

I like your idea of placing the receiver away from the bottom in case of leaks...

BUT...

I can't figure out how to get:
1) Two mini servos,
2) One Mtroniks Micro Viper Marine 10 ESC,
3) One small SNORT (LPB) pump with its two hoses,
4) One ADF2 Pitch controller,
5) One LiPo Guard
6) One Sombra receiver
7) The wires from the front battery compartment
8) All the interconnecting wires

in the "engine room" of the WTC. I see where Caswell sells this WTC as a completed unit which presumes that at some time in the past you have built one for a customer. I'm hoping you took some pictures of the completed unit and could post them here, please.

I'll keep shuffling the parts around but it's times like this I wish you still sold the 3" model.

Well? OK Mr. Wizard? How is it done? (Don't ask me guys, I have NO idea what magic dust he sprinkles to do this stuff!)

I went out this morning and purchased some styrene in various shapes and sizes. I'm going to try and modify the existing equipment rack to better hold the "stuff".

I'll post any and all progress, if any.

OK, I shuffled the parts again and got this.

First of all, please disregard all the rubber bands. They're only temporary (I hope).

Secondly, I shall use some of the newly acquired styrene to build brackets for all the parts.

Here are the photos:



More later,
