I am not sure I responded to your response, sorry. My concern with one battery is runtime. This uses two motors and I have been told the throttle needs to be heavier than most subs because of the down pitch of the bow and the up pitch of the stators to correct for the bow, meaning I need to keep the water flowing over the end. Saying that, then the question becomes where the heck do I put the fuse? or for that matter the electronic switch (which I love - Thank you Kevin McLeod for making these!).
Your volume point is spot on......If I keep the two batteries in, I will need to move enough air into the ballast tank to get the float to drop and then the SAS system can suck in the air though the snorkel in the sail. How much will that take? I do not know, but we will have fun learning together on this!
Thank you for your thoughts. I might change my wire to 18 gauge. Just need to order some.
Peace,
tom
