Hi Again Frank,
As you know, I'm a rotating shaft thru hull kind of guy but may still have
an idea for you that will not use electrical power or be slow. If you used two
similarly sized dual acting hydraulic cylinders, one as an actuator and one
inside as a master cylinder you could have direct immediate response and no
power drain.
Hope it helps!
Best Regards,
Jim K

Subject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Looking for
electric motors.
Hi Jim. Thanks for the compliments. I'm getting ready to do the power
thing for the dive planes, and want to check out using electric before I
commit to air or hydraulic. I have a grainger's book, and there are lots of
motors that would work, but ya, I'd have to build enclosures. I'll probably
stay with hydraulics, but want to research this possibility first. Moving the
dive planes with an electric toggle switch would make it more responsive
to descend/ascend via the planes, but suck up a lot of electrical power.
If I use a small hydraulic pump, the inside controls would be
basically the same as electric, but I was really planning on using a hand
pump, where quick changes in dive plane position wouldn't be possible,
but uses no battery power. Still looking for the right compromise of power
usage and performance. I have limited space for batteries, and am trying to
maximize the 10 battery "bank" so I don't waste it on unnecessary tasks.
Anybody out there got a small nuke plant they're not using ? Frank
