I took an interest in U33s recent post and his kilo and threatened to buy the kit which has arrived. Never posted a build on here and not sure of the interest in such a small sub. I certainly am not the best modeller and now at 77 the eyes and hands are not that steady (pass the vodka !!) I have built a revell V11C and a Gato using Dave Welch system but this time I will try "going it alone" within reason.
After looking around both here,China, Hong Kong and the USA it would seem the price of parts even for small projects gets more expensive. For example one small partial kit costing £50 they required £30 postage All the more reason for self build !!
Have not yet decided on what dive system I wiil use but have started to put some of the kit together although very little glued together as yet for obvious reasons . I intend to use both rear and forward dive planes. I am posting a few pics forgive the imperial ruler (senior moment) and the picture quality.Note the rudder shaft has now been slighty lowered to allow for the propshaft !!
Will post more as the sub develops
