Have you guys seen my site's build thread on my robbe engel conversion with suntech auto leveller and depth control?
It's at
http://magpieyachts.com/building7.html
and
http://magpieyachts.com/building8.html
Have a looka nd see how I did it. It has 15 nimh sub c 3600s and I now get an hour of running at scale speed with 3 or 4 static dives to the bottom and back etc. I'm very happy with it. The whole build took me 3 months and was a blast!

Yes, I saw your site.
It gives some inspiration but I can't just copy your princip because my setup is different. I have a "bajonett" ring that is a bit smaller than the diameter of the framework, so I have to completely redesign the framework. The front rudder is controlled by a servo inside the tube, in my U47 so it also takes some space.
But I have a clear idear about how I must do it all, and I also have made half of the parts I need for the new framework.
I also have to do a slightly modification to the Engel tank because its more than 75 mm in diameter and my new framework only accept up to 80 mm. Therefore I made a new socket for the motor, so that moved slightly more to the center.
Here is my sub with dynamic setup
