RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Idabel photos

[karl@stanleysubmarines.com]

to answer your first question- the ss pipe is just as a guard- mostly to protect the vert thrustermotors-

 

in terms of testing-I had it in a lake 2 times to get the balamce-bouyancy dialed in- andthen the first timeI had it in saltwater I took it to 1500 feet- manned- I had done model testing- with 6 inch spheres in douglas privat´s tank, where the models madeit to over 4400 feet without imploding- the camber then started to fail-so- I have a high degree of faith in my design and work
