    Hi Steve,
    As my cousin

    Hi Steve,
    As my cousin is fond of saying "Yes and No". I do not want to give any details out till I am sure it is going to work. It should work, maybe , possibly , hopefully . Dave.

      Forgive me if I missed

      Forgive me if I missed it somewhere, but is this the Trumpeter Seawolf?

      Regardless, the propulsor looks great.

      Thanks,

        Dave,
        If an RCABS bladder was

        Dave,
        If an RCABS bladder was placed above the narrow center section of your WTC it would have room to expand, and you would be able to move it forward or backwards to change trim later. That would be handy if you wanted to rearrange the position of other componenents in the WTC. So, your design is really not a dumbbell.

              I've been working on mine

              I've been working on mine tonight, I have most part of the rudder linkage done, I followed Dave's idea to see how to set this up
              and so far so good, I thinking of ordering a 5 bladed prop that has the hub on the end of it so it will stick out the back of the shroud
              alittle bit but atleast it will work.



              pictures coming soon.

                Dave

                I have one question that

                Dave

                I have one question that seems to be looming larger and larger
                but how in the world do we attach the stern to the hull?

                and how do we attach the top and buttom together in this whacky put together fitting hull?

                I have ideas but I want this sub to look good without screws showing all over the place!

                  Mark,
                  I have not crossed that bridge yet. I am still finishing up the WTC. I have a few ideas, if they work I will post photos. Dave.

                      I have a drawing on my desk how to do this, to join the two halves together and then the nose cone and stern, only two screws will be on the bottom of the hull.

                      I'll redraw this on paper and then scan them tonight and send them over, see what you think.

                        more drawings later.
