Type VII Final

[@junoypi]

I have seen this video twice now. Very detailed and fast too. Getting a lot of ideas and knowledge. Thanks to Bob Martin. He explained details on how things works. I’ve never seen how torpedo is rigged and I have seen it here too. This boat is very detailed and turns well it seems too.

[@freddymarcel-marcum6831]

My grandmother's brother Erich Weudermann was commander of the U-506, I've always been fascinated with subs but chose aviation during my Navy days 😆. I'm an RC sailboat guy and I appreciate the work you guys do! Cheers, E

did he survive the sinking in 1943?

[@freddymarcel-marcum6831]

@@klemens.7561 no, nobody did, the boat itself is off of the Bay of Biscay.

[@hithere7382]

@@freddymarcel-marcum6831 The Internet says the B-24 located U-506 on the 10cm radar and engaged with 7 depth charges, and the boat broke in two and afterwards the Liberator crew saw ~15 men in the water, to which they dropped a raft and signal flare. Apparently 6 were rescued by a British destroyer 3 days later. Is this correct?

[@1gatesnc]

I thought I was a RC wizard with my RC trucks. Turns out I'm not. Amazing engineering and beautiful work. Thanks for sharing.

[@danielmarso7242]

Beautiful model,theType VII was my favorite boat, congratulations on a wonderful job !

[@thelastjohnwayne]

The paint job to replicate Sea water rust on her hull is awesome.

[@wingnutzster]

By far the most niche thing I’ve ever seen on YT! I understand the passion, I’ve been obsessed with model aeronautics since before I can remember but I never get into a situation where my models gets out of sight for even a millisecond, for you sub guys the highlight is submerging and I guess just using your imagination until it re-emerges?

[@Over50tv]

I’m glad I found you. Looking forward to watching more videos.

[@LyfovRyan51]

Looks great as a model, but to see it in motion is awesome.

[@rogerwassner2945]

true!

[@aveit01]

fantastic work !!! greetings from germany

[@kencattell8601]

Oh dear god. That is superb. Always fancied doing a r/c model of U57 Gunter Priens sub that got into Scarpa Flow. Seeing this as the standard, I will just keep my ambition as fantasy! Brilliant job.

Thanks for sharing ! That is one cool model... I wish I had one !

[@michaelboyko5024]

Wow, it's a masterpiece! It takes tonns of work to make one!

[@timcargile1562]

As a once crew member of the USS Archerfish (AGSS 311), a WWII fleet boat that won a Presidential Unit Citation for sinking the Shimano Japanese carrier, I can really appreciate this model and, especially, the simulated rust you encrusted your U-boat model with. I was a trained Electronic Technician, assigned to helm and shears watch and deck gang. The electronics was original equipment and should have been in a museum so I was not a good match for the equipment. Have you researched long, floating wire antennas for the radio control (I can guess you don't wan to dive you models too deep for fear of losing them)?

[@harveydecker6381]

Very cool. Interesting and informative. Thanks

[@madbren]

Awesome model and very interesting.

[@daytch9485]

Neat as heck! Great video

[@michaelshaffer9051]

Craftsmanship beyond belief!!!

[@donaldbadowski290]

Considering the location, I'd be worried your Type 7 would get et by an alligator. Nice job.

[@timcargile1562]

He needs genuine explosive torpedoes for the 'gators' :-)

ça, c'est du maquettisme ! that is model making ! Il ne maque que la caméra sous-marine. All that's missing is the underwater camera.

[@johnro6659]

NICE! I have an Vintage 80s Atkins R/C German Sub I never finished. I forget what type it is, I think it might be an IXC?? Just dug it out of storage and going to work on it after seeing this vid. Of course things have changed It's made of fiberglass, wood with cast metal accessories. Pretty heavy model close to 6' long.

Cool stuff!🤓👍

[@fuzziemorris886]

Awesome!

[@jorgefearlessfaithful2942]

Amazing model. If I may recommend you use a pair of forceps for connecting those narrow bits. much easier and safer (might break something in the process)

[@Lu-Cifer0815]

Hey great built absolut fantastic. Is it possible to give me some information ore maybe a Link how you built the Torpedos and the complete lounch system?

[@antonyp3443]

Ditto this request. Beautiful craftsmanship and creativity.

[@OttoMatieque]

nice machine

[@chefduane3742]

Ya' gotta' respect the time and persistence of someone who built this. Also, the research and build skills demonstrate excellent craftsmanship. I've always been in to flying scale models but this is really something! Well done and nice review. PS: Why aren't you wearing a Submariner? :)

[@rockmanharbinger3622]

MASTERPIECE😎ROCKMAN!

[@garybauer124]

No gator attacks? Cool, never saw a RC sub, very cool.

[@volvo1354]

sadly, if i had this model at age 12, i would have depth charged it

Grab the air rifle brother.. we have subs to sink. - Kids

You should have played "Wolfpack" by Sabaton. Or at least some of the music from "Das Boot." lol. Great model, thanx for the look see.

[@DiogenesOfCa]

The Cartel would probably buy this from you.

[@mikemichaels1875]

How does your sub receive radio signal underwater? What is your depth limit?

For equiping the submarine type VII, I bought the kit W7602GPV WTC, I miss the battery DZ1 with accessories, do you know where I can buy them because arkmodel don't answer me. Thanks

[@Fourwheeljive]

Wow!

[@manuelkong10]

I would love to have a painted AGED STATIC version of this for home display

[@wb-usmcret.2337]

Now that is cool ☠

[@envitech02]

Pardon me for my ignorance, but limited understanding is that radio waves cannot travel through water, unless if it's VLD/ULF So how do you control the sub? By the way, the model looks great and very realistic!!!

[@RCSubGuy]

Low frequency radio waves do penetrate water to a fairly useful degree. We operate on 75mhz here in North America.

[@dave_yeg8596]

Would it not be more efficient to use low frequency radio when operating underwater for distance?

[@RCSubGuy]

You mean ULF? Better distance. Waaaaaay lower data transfer rates. Not suitable for RC control.

[@rimonjericevich7083]

Amazing video and amazing model .. how can I get a quote ?

[@RCSubGuy]

I'd love to help, but I'm booked solid until the end of the year and I'm not taking on new commissions. If you're curious, a standard build would start at $4k turnkey.

[@ruedigersonntag9315]

I love it

[@Eddieboote]

Great U-boat model. Nice detail, but for me too many parts to assemble for each run

[@RCSubGuy]

5 minutes work is too much to prep the boat? ;) The video makes it look like a long process, but it only takes a few minutes to go from disassembly to fully ready to go.

[@OttoMatieque]

authentic LED lights ;-)

[@stevedonkers9087]

Now all you need is a Liberty cargo ship.

[@danroffee4904]

I thought you were going to tell us the camera lens was mounted in the muzzle of the deck gun...

[@FreyaKennafr]

Lol, so did i, i was thinking it was going to be connected through a fish eye lens some how

[@salparadise1220]

They didn't have red hulls though, other than perhaps on training boats.

[@welshpete12]

It's just anti-fouling paint , all ships have it. It comes in different colours . Some subs had it in black or gray . It's there to stop weed and barnacle growth , which slows the ship down.

[@salparadise1220]

@@welshpete12 I know what it is. It's the wrong colour is all.

[@salparadise1220]

[@clancywoodard310]

Does it dive and you should also get like an Allied Liberty ship model for it to attack

[@newt2010]

At the end you show us the underwater camera that you added but you didn’t show any video from it. What’s up with that?

[@kiwicory100]

Cool

[@backpages1]

A question. I seem to recall that some of the subs used during WWII trailed a long radio antenna/wire for communcations. Is it not possible to do the same for a 'wireless' real time camera? Absolutely great model!

do anybody put a cam and or light on it like a drone? it would be neat to see whats around under water

[@kirkramsay3370]

It would have been awesome if you had a small camera on that so we can see it go under the water I think they have one that will do that
