[PSUBS-MAILIST] New video

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi All,Just got back from test dives in Gamma, in an ice free lake.  I made a video of the launch.  What used to be a easy  one man launching submarine is now ultra super easy.  I don't even have to get out of the truck anymore.  I took the video of the first try and had the retrieval rope screwed up, but obviously that is not an issue now that I know what to do.  My travel thrusters are poorly positioned, they need to be strait instead of raked.  I can't use all four motors and stay on coarse, but it is much faster.The speed controllers don't even warm up, probably because they are tight against the ice cold hull.So a  simple motor mount change and Gamma is back in business and ready for the pressure test.Hank
