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.

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