Since my boat as designed is primarily a snorkel boat on the
tiny diesel, dynamic flow over dive planes is critical to control.
I have in mind a mechanical linkage system similar to
aircraft control surfaces with either a bell crank and pulley system or
better yet a pushrod and torque tube system.
Individual control of the bow and stern planes as in the WWII
boats is not really practical, so I am planning on an interconnection
via either a single lever or a side mounted wheel. Very simple stuff, no
hydraulics or electric motors.
I welcome comments and suggestions as every time I put
something out, my design is improved tremendously as a result of the
input.
Thanks
Joe
