WOW!! 300 punds?!?
ThatÂ´s what IÂ´m talking about. I will make my own. I found some tips and hints, nothing really detailled, but pictures of the process of making via foams and fiberglass (probably the same used in my surfboards). I expect to spend less than $80 bucks on itÂ´s "hull"
I still donÂ´t have any blueprint to start my project.
Later on, next time I go to US, IÂ´m buy the Radio stuff.
IÂ´ll start developing the Piston Ballast Tank, sounds difficult and then iÂ´ll put it all together for sea trials!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It will take some time.

hey, send me some pictures of you R/C sub!!

This will be a project for the next few years. I live in Brazil too and things are 3x more expensive here due to local money. Not to mention the taxes if youÂ´re importing even a simply book (40%+).
I wonÂ´t pay 60 local bucks for a blueprint, nor 400 dollars on a ballast tank, IÂ´ll build myself my own stuff, but i donÂ´t know where to begin...they wonÂ´t help me either....
To become a member of a NON-PROFIT org called subcommittee you have to pay 30+ bucks for 1 year.......................

Familiar with this site?
