[PSUBS-MAILIST] SeaQuestor progress

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

David,
great stuff. It would be interesting to add a temperature sensor in the motor to see
how hot they were running. With that port for air compensation it would be easy to
go to oil compensation if you needed it.

The aluminum shaft is seated in a UHMW collar in two locations and has a locking bellhorn that will tie the two thrusters together. The black extension is designed  to add up tow three additional sensors and air compensation, so I don't have to tap the thruster. I will be using a Linear actuator to drive the rotation of the pair of thrusters.

The rear thruster assembly includes a segment with external ports for air compensatation and future sensors. My thru hull penatration plates are at the shop having final machining and shoud be ready in a week. With a total of 30 port locatations I have plenty for future connections. I also get to make a few design esthetic changes as the cnc ribs were cut from my 3d model 1 year ago and it did not reflect recent revisions. But thats half the fun of design. Build a mock up and then make refinements. I hope to have the full set of rib stations adjusted and locked into position on the keel stand this weekend so i can start the foam cutting.
