Just look at the last page. The torpedoes even have their own electric motors.

That guy is insane! Building a sub like that from scratch, and with a complex ballast tank system... that's just an incredible effort.

Very interesting project.
Reminds me of the company 32th Parallel which used to make 1/32 r/c controlled models of submarines like the Gato and the U-VII.
The company suddenly disappeared - like me - and during a search action on internet I hit a site called subsim.com.

He'll be the terror of the model battleships that fire ball bearings at each other! He just has to add a warhead to his torpedo's and away he goes!!

I wonder if he's married or has a girl? I wonder what they would think about this!!!
