I saw 20,000 leagues under the Sea with my parents in 1954. I was so impressed with the movie I became a Marine biologist and had a great career with the federal government. Before my daughter was a teenager we took her to Disney World and I had hoped I could get a small model of the Nautilus. By that time nobody knew what it was nor did they have a display except at one corner of the lot I think they called it special-effects. They had a battleship and a cut in half Nautilus and they showed bubbles coming up etc
I could not find a small replica of the Nautilus so I decided to make my own but I needed some information. On the Internet I saw some drawings and as I started to make it I decided I could just as well make it an RC Nautilus but it was all very complicated. Ultimately I made a very simplestic model using the bilge pumps. While I was making this model I took videos and posted many of them on YouTube. It was a lot of fun. Now however the jet Nautilus sits in my living room taking up space I doubt that I will ever run it again.
If anyone is interested and would actually like this model it’s yours. All you have to do is pay for shipping, and you get the model and the transmitter. Otherwise when I die my son-in-law gets it and he will probably sell it at a local garage sell.
So if you want lt it’s yours for free you just have to arrange shipping. UPS shows up at my door, and away it goes. Gonna make the wife happy by getting it outa here. Cannot put a price on that.
