Kilo III has seen it's first H2O.
It's my third version of the conversion of a trumpeter 1/144 scale plastic kit.
over version 2 it has the following improvements :
- faster dive times
- smaller turning radius
- (still to come) lights
- more natural waterline when surfaced
- better access to internals
- less leaks
the proportional servo tank does wonders, pity the pushrod for the diveplane
broke at the alpha trials.
have a look at http://www.vimeo.com/4246947
it remains to clean up the outer shell,
to arrange for the lighting and to fix the dive plane.
