Hi all Subber's

 

here in Australia we have these little R/C subs...possibly the ones seen in asia...I got one in my room in a 2'foot fishtank...the kids and I (girls aged 7 & 9) spend lots of time playing with it...mind you there is nothing in the tank except the sub and a tin can...we take turns trying to 'park' the sub into the can...its fun...even quite tricky as you cannot turn left or right without gaining or losing depth/altitude (ok I'm an aviator turn subbie!!) for $30AUS it has been well worth it...oh plus the $25AUS for the tank.

 

The sub is just about 5cm's long...they say you cant take the controller under water  (like derr!) but fitted into a clear large ziplock bag the controller fits nicely into the bag even with the Ariel extended...so 'MALVIN' (minature-ALVIN..hehehhe) comes with us to the local pool, lake or wherever there is water...great fun for the kids  (me included..I can't afford a real one so this is great!)

 

Have fun, enjoy parenthood, cheers
