That sounds awsome! I have a 25 year old 5 + foot submarine half built in my basement. My father started it probably 20 years ago, but never got around to finishing it. I guess one of these days I will break it out and finish what he started. The only problem I see with the watercraft side of R/C is whe whole sinking thing. When I was a kid everyone always told me electronics and water don't mix, so my father goes out and builds an electric vehicle designed to sink? Talk about mixed messsages!

I hope you put that on your site, it sounds like a great project to follow along with. Especially if you did it in stages so people had to wait to read more.

gee an RC sub! wouldn't that be exciting. I guess with the advances in technology today and with with your experience in rc Equipments you wont have trouble finishing what your father have started. Ive seen Rc sub sites that offer parts specifically for RC subs like ballasts, motorss, waterproofing chemicals etc.... it would be great to see it launched for the very first time and probably a fitting tribute to your father. :-)

Great website, mate. I use to love building static models when I was younger, wish I have the time to keep building them, but with University, work and r/c racing these not much time left.
