Summer Design Project

[nallath 1,120]

Its possible to print watertight. Atleast, it is if you add some PVC glue afterwards.

We should start with a boat/battleship for proof of concept for waterproofing before we go full submersible.

What's the timescale? I don't really have big summer vacation (bye bye student life...), but usually it's best to kickstart the project with 1-2 weeks of intensive planning work and then sitting down and refining all the little details in time..

I'm definetly interested in making a boat / submarine! Or of course a giant spider with superpowers! (My oldest "want to have" project with which everything else started )

I could probably be of some help with electronics - if necessary. I have quite a bit of experience in radio technology, and some equipment to measure and improve antenna and radiation properties.

The question is, how much do we want to do ourselves? You can always just buy standard RC parts...

Sooner or later I will build my own RC radio platform (most probably based on a 32bit ARM MCU), but at the moment it's rather later than sooner...
