I have a very modified Engel Typhoon.
The scale is 1/100. The boat is completely finished and works
perfectly. The boat has been modified to have more realistic free flooding holes on the decks, tower and hull. The WTC has been totally redone with a much bigger opening, more screws, a lexan lid and a 4mm o-ring. The lid has a separate opening for the battery so that you don't have to unscrew the entire lid to remove the battery from the
hull to recharge it. The battery is a 6V 12A gel-cell.
The boat has independent running propellers (6 bladded cimitar) using two (included) speed controls (Traxxas XL-1). The speed controls are watercooled (a small fuel pump sucks in cold water and removes the warm water).
The boat has working retractable dive planes (they extend/retract and go up and down), working periscopes, running lights.The front dive planes are independant from the rear dive planes.The boat uses two engel pistons to dive, and has the engel failsafes]http://sub-systems.dyndns.org/Subcom-on/forum/Dcp05173.jpg[/img]
