 Something else you might want to consider and that's connecting the shunt 
windings directly to the batteries and using the controller PWM to drive the 
armature. The controller would have to be re-configured to operate this 
way. 
  
Good luck,

  Hey Ken good to hear from you. I have not checked yet, but I have 
  a feeling the controller  
  just kicked out. It did it a few times when we were bench 
  testing. Thought we had it whooped 
  but maybe not. I still do not have reverse in it, and will 
  probably just redo everything. If the 
  controller is not going to be reliable, may just pull the 
  motor and have it rewound to a straight 
  series motor. I am real pleased with the way it performs. I never 
  dreamt a DC motor could be 
  so difficult. Lesson learned.

    Nice Sub, glad to see the video. 
      
    Wonder what went wrong with the propulsion?

      Thanks Dave, she hasn't  been down more than 10' so far 
      but she is getting close. 
      It does make all the hard work and cussin worth while. And I 
      promise the video's will 
      improve, I really do like looking at them. From inside the 
      sub you do not get to see it.

      Dean,     A wonderful video! A wonderful 
        submarine! 
        Congratulations!

        OK not very action packed video but it is all I 
        got. 
          
        
          
        first part I am just trying to get neutral, and then the 
        big break before we get  
        playing
