How can i make a circuit board for a remote control model submarine?

Question

It only needs 3 motors. two in the back and one vertical. all i need is the circuit boards with a transmitter and reciever, which i don't know how to make/get. Please tell me where i can get one or how to make one and the parts needed to do so.

Answer 1

My husband builds remote control model submarines as a business, check out his web site www.northseasfleet.co.uk and you can contact him from there and he should be able to tell you what you need to do.
It is possible to buy of the shelf radio control sets from most hobby stores, as you would need a minimum of 3 channels, it is also possible to make your own radio contol set have look at www.rapidelectronics.co.uk not so easy though, I would always spend out the £80 + on a shop brought radio set.

Answer 2

Any high-end receiver/servo configuration from an RC hobby shop should work.

And just to keep the record straight, the first radio-controlled machine was a submarine. Made by Nicola Tesla, of course.

Good luck and have lots of fun with yours. My dream machine is a RC Zeppelin, which is pretty much the same kind of creature.

Answer 3

Making circuit boards is kind of tricky, but you can go to the library and check out books on electronics. What ever you make has to be pretty accurate: everything has to be on the same frequency. A hobby craft store would have a lot of stuff all ready made up.

Answer 4

You'll find that the control boards are easy compared to an antenna that'd allow you to operate the model under water. That's a major challenge for today's US Navy submarine fleet! How do you communicate with a nuke sub while it's under water? It can be done - but YOU would have a very, very hard time duplicating the technology (it's huge and it's very, very expensive).

Answer 5

in simple terms shop an eye fixed on him, if he receives torpid and provides you up on water and food all at the same time for more advantageous than one feeding then i'd evaluate taking him to the vet. as long as its passing and he's on the minimum eating water, hell be effective. He ought to poop-out later because it passes yet he should be effective. my dogs have eaten lots of remotes...

Answer 6

I don't know. But Homer was able to make a nuclear power plant using some oatmeal boxes, macaroni and glue. So you should be able to do it pretty easily.

Answer 7

This site has all of the remote control stuff you need. Have fun.
