It is a nice feature to have since it's cool to be able to watch what your submarine finds as it explores your nearby pond. This is the perfect submarine if you want to watch what your submarine finds in real-time. You can even take pictures as well as recording when you're exploring the unknown depth of your river. It has LED lights so that you can see in the dark. This RC submarine is an excellent choice for kids. So, if you want to go on an adventure and explore the unknown depth of your nearby river, this model is a great choice. The Jujuism Mini Remote Control is the perfect RC submarine for lakes, rivers, and ponds since it is small enough.
So you can recharge the submarine for unlimited use, and not have to worry about batteries. This is a great advantage since rechargeable batteries can be reused hundreds of times. It even has a propeller which is in charge of making sure the submarine can float and dive.Īlso, this model has a small Ni-MH battery inside the boat.
You can move forward, backward, turn left, right, and dive. Low-quality controls can easily ruin your experience. However, this model has two LED lights in the front, which are pretty easy to find in the dark, so you always know where it is. Sometimes it's hard to tell where your submarine is when it is underwater. It is small enough so you can carry it around without much effort. I remove the rubber part of the valve that goes into the tire rim with a lathe.This is a cool-looking remote controlled submarine with camera. A Schrader tire valve (available at any auto parts store) is mounted in a hole in a cylindrical aluminum block that is glued and press-fitted into the aluminum torpedo body using a CA adhesive product called “Hot Stuff”. 25 of that fitted into the end of the tube. The next 4.75” is aluminum tubing and the aluminum tail section is 1.25 with. The nosepiece is a bullet-shaped piece of hardwood dowel rod glued into a 2.25” section of 5/8” aluminum tubing. The torpedo is 8.75” X 5/8” diameter and is divided into three parts. 035” drill bit for the firing pin Nyrod with threaded brass endpiece to pull the pin Nylon rod for nozzle Sheet styrene plastic for fins. Hardwood dowel rod from any good hardware store or lumberyard, cylindrical aluminum block to serve as a base for the tire valve Schrader tire valve to fill propellant into torpedo body Hot Stuff brand CA adhesive, an old. 02” wall thickness for the torpedo body, available in most well stocked hobby and hardware stores. Okay, now that the disclaimers are done, here's what I use when I make my torpedoes:Īluminum tubing 5/8” X 6 1/4” with. If you decide to make these torpedoes, you are on your own, sailorman! I make no guarantees as to safety or anything else. This isn't the only way and may not be best way to do it, but it's what works for me.
These torpedoes are relatively inexpensive to build, very durable, easy to maintain and ALWAYS please the crowd! This is how I build torpedoes for my RC model submarines.
One of the biggest crowd-pleasers for a model submarine is working torpedoes. They are as follows: “Does it really sink?” (Hopefully not!) “How deep does it go?” (All the way to the bottom if I'm not careful.) “How fast does it go?” (“A scale speed of over 100 mph” always wow's them.) “How much did it cost?” (More than your bike and less than your Dad's car.) And “Does it shoot torpedoes?” It might also be wise to put some sort of pin or cotter key locking device that would block the torpedo from leaving the torpedo tube after it's loaded until the sub is placed in the pond.Īlmost everyone who has launched an RC sub in a public place has been asked what I call “The questions”. I place my sub in the pond after loading torpedoes and wait for a turn to run with the boat and torpedoes sitting in nice cool water. These babies can make like missiles and fly through the air too! (See above “feeding frenzy” warning.) The rules are posted at. The increased pressure will eventually “cook off” the torpedo - causing an unintended launch ~ possibly into the neighbor's baby stroller or an unsuspecting bystander's eye (can you say “Lawyers' feeding frenzy?”) I also follow the SubCommittee's rules for pressurized tanks and fill the torpedo well away (and pointed away) from bystanders and wear safety glasses. Torpedoes should NOT BE LOADED and then allowed to sit in the sub in the sun. The result is an increase in pressure in the torpedo body. While its pressure is much lower than CO2, keep in mind that the heat of a warm day or direct sun will cause the gas to expand. The liquid gas is cold as it leaves the can - cold enough to cause painful frost burns. Note - A word of caution: These torpedoes are filled with the same type of liquefied gas used to dust a computer keyboard or to spray paint with an airbrush.
