[PSUBS-MAILIST] (no subject)

Hi Alec

 

You guessed it I have taken the idea from the harrier I love how simple the idea is and the use of one motor intrigues me I am sure I can build it and have made a start on building a model which I will experiment with I hope to start building the real thing in the not too distant future I also have a very clever engineer on board who likes my idea. Thanks for the vote of confidence I will keep the club up to date as we progress.

An underwater Harrier! The idea is quite similar to Cousteau's diving saucer too. Great maneuverability, but not too efficient energy-wise. Still, it's all about compromises and that would be an original design I think everyone would like to see implemented.

 

Best,


Alec

Hi 

 

I am near the end of my build of my k350 and have started to look at new designs I am interested in building a flyer sub and have come up with a design which will include a vectored motor drive this will enable my flyer to hover and stop where ever I want. I have designed a motor unit which will drive a fan type propeller as an intake this will force water to the rear of the unit  where it is compressed  then it is forced into ducting which will take  the water to four nozzles on the side of the craft. The nozzles are able to turn three hundred and sixty degrees  both side are independent of one another so rolls will be achievable. The reason for a vectored motor is you only need one motor source and one power pack this will ease the maintenance and increase the enjoyment of using your sub. I am interested in the clubs thought of this kind of design.
