Sounds a dangerous ploy Hank.If you had 50 liters of water to pump out, making you 50kg heavy (110 lb.)you might have trouble stopping.If you had two vertical thrusters with 50lb thrust each you would get the samespeed. At 1mph would take 34 minutes to get to your 3000ft max depth or 10 minutes at 3 mph.Maybe add another battery? It would be a lot of work hand pumping out the wateragainst 1500psi external water pressure at your max depth.Or maybe a drop weight full of rocks.Cheers Alan

Alan,I need full depth pressure rating so I can sink fast without thrusters then pump out some water at depth to go neutral.   I can't wast air like Gamma because I have no onboard compressor.   Hank

 Hank,why not use an electric pump used on boats & have valves to operatevarious other functions. They are reasonably small, 12V & built for marine conditions.Can't recall what psi they go up to, but saw some rated 130 psi.Cheers Alan

Hi All,I am looking for a hand pump to remove water from my trim tank.  It will work like a DW.  I will empty the air out of the mbt and then flood a small plastic tank inside the sub.  Any ideas?Hank
