Hi All,Just got back from test dives in Gamma, in an ice free lake. I made a video of the launch. What used to be a easy one man launching submarine is now ultra super easy. I don't even have to get out of the truck anymore. I took the video of the first try and had the retrieval rope screwed up, but obviously that is not an issue now that I know what to do. My travel thrusters are poorly positioned, they need to be strait instead of raked. I can't use all four motors and stay on coarse, but it is much faster.The speed controllers don't even warm up, probably because they are tight against the ice cold hull.So a simple motor mount change and Gamma is back in business and ready for the pressure test.Hank
