I think Russia will sell you one pretty cheap - but you might want to check it for radiation leakage.....

Hi,
I have a Robbe U47 kit never out of the box. I would be happy to get $450 for it, and ship it free in the US. Let me know if you are still interested.

Russia has the biggest and most powerfull nuclear sub in the world. Don't think that your America creates the best of everything because you listen to propaganda which is meant to sway the American peoples minds.

PS. How come there are so many people from America whose spelling is so shocking?

Will Iran and China really sell back your subs that can actually sail?

Is this an American pride contest?
Come on guys, have a hard look at your nation. You guys are so stupid you can't locate America on a map.
Completely ignorant. But you know what they say, ignorance is a bliss... keep living it...

And what is it that you all think you know about the rest of the world? What your government allows you to know? You've been taught lies straight from school
And you know why? Your government needs idiots like you. Idiots like you complain about the little things are are too stupid to know the bigger things happening.

Now... chant with the rest of the world... a good American is a dead American...

From what I managed to learn, if you're in a pond or lake, the sub will be out of sight after diving about 2 to 2 1/2 feet, so I don't know why you would want to go deeper than that. If you're in a swimming pool, I think the chlorine in the water will effect radio range, so you won't be able to go all that deep and still have control. As far as radio systems, the one radio you CANNOT use is 2.4 ghz, the signal does not penetrate water at all. Maybe more experienced sub guys can help you out more.

I heard that roughly 3 meters (which is 9ft) is the range
I think though with submarines you will quickly get bored of it. ie, it's novelty will quickly run out

What might be more interesting is, I've seen some RC submarines that have a vacant area inside them and a clear window so that you can put small video cameras into them and record video footage

You wouldn't be so brave if I told that to your face

However, fair enough, this is an RC forum and things should be kept civil.

The original poster asked a legitimate question. Keep the responses on topic.

Spetz,

Would you like to buy a rtr trumpeter Kilo? I saw one on another forum post for sale. Let me know and I will see if I can contact the poster. I believe it was about $300.00 with radio, wtc etc. The boat was built by Steve Neill ( he is one of the innovastors in the hobby and is well know as a builder.)

It's the user "Calum" that wants a sub, not me
However he mentioned he is short on cash so I'd say $300 is high

Hi Guy's
I dabbled in rc subs for awhile. 300 for a rtr sub. maybe for a hull. a sub rtr is going to run at lest 800-1000 dollars. go to the subcommittee report.com and read up on all rc sub related stuff. they are the best bunch of guy's around. all the best craig
