RC Submarine Double Torpedo Firing/Launch Demonstration | Do they hit the target ?

RC Submarine Double Torpedo Firing/Launch Demonstration | Do they hit the target ?
We've always been fascinated by RC submarines on 'Essential RC' and it was great to film this demonstration by Martin Prior from Crowborough Model Boat Club at the Southern Model Show at Headcorn Aerodrome in Headcorn, Kent, UK. On this Sunday demonstration he managed to get both torpedoes launching simultaneously...but did either of them hit the target ?
Filmed by Dom Mitchell for the 'Essential RC' KZbin channel using the Panasonic AG-UX180 4K camcorder at Southern Model Show 2022 hosted at Headcorn Aerodrome

The only problem with showing off model submarines is the difficulty of seeing them underwater. Other commenters have mentioned wearing polarized glasses, but I think it would be even cooler to sail them in a large aquarium tank, where spectators can watch through glass windows underwater.

[@mamamelaverga8753]

Si, eso sería genial, al estilo de los acuarios de pesca de bass

[@streetx1602]

yes

[@Evergreen1400]

Polarized glasses really do help a lot. I have a home on the island of Oahu and all the good fishermen wear Maui Jim polarized sunglasses to help them see into the water/cuts down on the glare. Your aquarium idea sounds really cool though I’d enjoy seeing them from that perspective

[@RTStx1]

I have always wanted someone to make little torpedoes that actually have a small charge so their is an explosion; one day.

[@EssentialRC]

I have seen it once. Was a KZbin video. Can't find it now. Did some real damage actually. Small charge in water would create a lot of force I guess.

[@RTStx1]

@@EssentialRC yes explosions in water cause more damage due to water not giving. An explosion cavitation the water making it boil and explode so under water multiplies the effect.

[@grimreap3r122]

Put a little bit of encapsulated elemental potassium on the tip and wala

[@westerncanadian4249]

Well said my friend

[@ubroberts5541]

Or an RC tank with a working gun.

[@aukanmeister]

The kid going " da-dom-da-dom-da-dom" was hilarious 😆 Right into it.

[@danstubbs5032]

Absolutely freaking AWESOME 👍😎👍

[@edgeyt1]

A polarising filter for your camera would allow you to see better under the water 👍

[@libertyvilleguy2903]

Outstanding!

[@nicckyrajput6113]

How cool is this man .....I want such toy

[@SuperViral1]

It's nice

[@user-xe5dr1te3w]

So Great 🎉

[@rodparker4514]

The problem is fresh water doesn't foam like salt water ; so they never look scale when running on the surface .

[@ZsaZsaUmbra]

The foam could make it worse cuz the bubbles would look gigantic I think

[@ducatimidnight594]

Too cool!

[@ancliuin2459]

Interesting that the torpedoes are loaded into the tube already running, obviously to avoid the hassle of having to switch them on within the boat (by a Reed contact e.g.)... and the battery life of an AAA battery driving a little motor is obviously so long, it's easier to just keep the torpedoes running.

[@calvinlee6635]

Where can you buy these?

[@MysticalNerdTV]

How did he make this thing?

[@Wehrkreisersatzkomma]

nice :)

[@lasersbee]

How do they RC communicate with a totally submerged Submarine ?? Would like to see a torpedo and it's build up close.

[@EssentialRC]

Can't remember what frequency they use but its not 2.4Ghz. It does penetrate a few feet into the water

[@lasersbee]

@@EssentialRC Didn't know that.. Thanks. From the long Radio antenna it might be 72MHz or 75 MHz

[@wilfriedhaas4127]

a normal 40 MHz RC works up to 3 metres depth, even better if you take the "Takelage" as an antenna (isolated copperwire)

[@user-bh5mw1sh6u]

魚雷の構造すごい🎉水中モーター凄い❗本物魚雷もビックリ😮‼️するリアリティー‼️

[@gsxroyce256]

5:05 the dude on the ground ??? Must be drunk 😂

[@leeedsonetwo]

Really fun but needed an explosion.

[@abetsbike]

6:04 "yeeeah 😐"

[@jebcalp5703]

Where can I get these submarines?

[@oNe-TwO-fReE]

I bought an expensive diving/surfacing sub for me and my Daughter. We went out into the Sea for its Maiden Voyage in Cornwall. Excitedly we set it on its way and it chugged along and dived....And we never saw it again. My Daughter was distraught so I told her that its okay the sub will surface on a beach in France in front of a little boy with no toys.

[@EssentialRC]

Surely it was tethered?! Radio control does not work to any depth in water.

[@oNe-TwO-fReE]

​@@EssentialRC no it was just a battery operated job. Did I say RC? No I don't think I did. I'm hardly going to buy a "really" expensive RC sub then swim out with my daughter and swim and control it at the same time. When I say expensive I say relatively speaking. You guys would call it a toy. I apologize for my interest in your site.

[@kapitanhedwig4608]

The Sub's inner workings are standard merch, like jet engines?? Only a few builders with own systems and both manufacteurs are most ambitious!

[@EssentialRC]

Jet engine?! No

[@janeyxplab6816]

I can do this with a little real explosion so it will looks like realistic. Whose interested?

[@TruggyDriver69]

Just sayin, but we really need a SLBM launch.

[@torstenbrinkmann6683]

Typ XXIII

[@troy6882]

😃😄😁😆😅 5 Smile's.

[@ww2channel346]

Do you sale this u-boat?

[@EssentialRC]

No

[@Rahsajati]

ITS must have an exvensive to build this. Rc ..sub...

[@EssentialRC]

Very time consuming, skilled and high effort mostly

[@Rahsajati]

Yes sure but the hobby is unik ITS very proud build yourself... 👍👍

[@ST5S5]

The torpedos didn’t even explode

[@gbresaleking]

Its a shame to sink that beautiful neptune ship like they did with those torpedoes

[@thomascarmichael6760]

Torpedoes with a charge for radio controlled subs is something that will not happen as there are rules in place to stop this. It’s dangerous not only to the operator but also to the observers. Pyrotechnics have always been banned in the modeling community.

[@EssentialRC]

See pyrotechnics regularly at RC shows

[@libertyvilleguy2903]

You’re no fun.

[@BLAZENYCBLACKOPS]

No laser guidance, what a rip off, lol!

[@thecursed01]

didn't explode. must be american Mark 14 XD
