An RC Submarine built cheap!!!

Post by Alaska Rov Systems »

Hello all,

Another project that I was working on. I got bored one night and tried building a submarine out of a juice bottle and a computer fan.
Here are are pics of the results

I know it was a waste of a bottle but I was bored that day and felt like building something instead of throwing the bottle away.

Why not trim the shroud off and just epoxy the motor housing in the middle to the back end of the cap? Save you a little on hydrodynamics and protects the power cables where they enter the hull through the cap too.
