Just wondering about the overall dimensions, the way you normally break it down.

Mini R-RCABS System Components
ID end caps
OD o-rings
Lexan tube sections

Wondering about other application, because initially Steve was referring to the WTC set-up for the Kilo as possibly working in the U-212. Will it fit the Akula, or Seawolf, see were I am going with this. Working on Darrins 1]

Hi Rick,
The OD for

Hi Rick,
The OD for the large tubes is 2.5". The lengths are not set yet as I am still in the design stage. It will be as short as I can make it all fit. Only having the print to go by I want to make sure it will fit into Steve's hull. The Kilo cylinder would work maybe for a dynamic boat. Not enough bladder for the 212. The 1/32 XXIII would require a 3.0-R. The Mini-R may work in the Seawolf. That would have to be tested. BD.
