- HOW DO RADIO CONTROLLED (RC) SUBMARINES WORK ?
Matt kindly runs me through how his HMS Upholder radio controlled submarine works. The shell for this RC submarine is made by OTW Designs (otwdesigns.com/) in Loughborough which is run by Bob Dimack. He tells me about how it dives and surfaces, the propulsion and control systems. Impressed by the clean installation of all the gear. It made it easy to understand the function of all the components.

That was a good interview. The gentleman did a good job of explaining everything.
Yes, he did. Made watching the video worthwhile.
one of very few interviews on youtube that i found interesting in terms of information, knowledge and captivating... thanks to all involved
That is one of the best trimmed subs I've seen. Beautiful job!
That's the best sub piloting I've seen along with the internal setup. Nice find👍
Great model and a really nice guy taking time to explain how it all works. really enjoyed it.
Thanks to you both
Fascinating, thank you, I didn't know I liked RC subs til now.
Wow. Amazing video, the camera, the interview, the model, everything. Thank you so much! So funny how this "walk through the basics" ended up being, you could say, a full-fledged submarine engineering class haha :-) Thanks once again, and kudos to Mr. Matt for his amazing job putting that beast together!
Ooy'
Yeah, that model is sick, I wish I could own one
I do want to add how impressive of a machine this is!
Thank you for a very informative video. The sub’s owner did a good job of explaining how his model works.
Best and most organized sub model I have seen! Well done!!
agreed
Excellent video and very informative, Dom. Run silent, run deep !
I've learned something today, thank you very much! Stellar images and good info. Cheers from Holland.
I sailed the real one (HMCS Victoria class now) that's such a nice sub you have there sir.
VERY well conducted interview. That is a fantastic model.
RC Submarines raises the complexity of RC vehicles by a huge factor. I don't think many people realize just how complex they are or what goes into building or using one.
John Powers id say same bout helicopters.
Gate keeping by John.
Stevie D I haven't had a sub but I did fly helis and quadcopter for a bit, the amount of props and blades you chew through in urban areas was a pain, plus the larger helis are really quite pricey for good ones. I'd imagine the running cost of a sub would be a bit less, construction likely about the same. Micro helis can be fairly cheap though and IMO the best way to learn since they are also not nearly as dangerous as the larger ones.
You've apparently have never built and flown a helicopter.
Well... I mean it's really cool but not what I'd call complicated. A pump, three servos, a basic gyro and a motor. Doesn't even have independent vanes for roll dampening and the main hull isn't water/pressure resistant. Have you seen a flybarless aerobatic heli? Or even a scale multi-mast RC sailing boat? That shit is what I'd call complicated. If this was more realistic with a full pressure hull and multiple ballast tanks and pumps to adjust trim and video back to goggles or a laptop to about 20 meters or further with a long aerial with a float then I'd say it was reasonably complex.
Gorgeous Sub and great interview/explanation!
One of my favorite hobby too...good information
thanks i have been thinking about making my own rc sub for a while and this is very helpful
That gentleman did an excellent job of explaining it.
I've loved submarines since I was a child, and my dream was to always have a RC one, but they didn't exist. I'm very surprised and happy to discover that they exist now, and they are even capable of great actions, they're complex inside! Omg, wonderful. I'm so happy to have discovered this video
What a beautiful submarine. Great job!
Really well explained, and it is a work of art more than a toy. I imagine it is a little easier to run in a pool though less scale.
Excellent video mate. Matt built a properly beautiful submarine. Thank you for putting this video out.
Thats one amazing piece of kit
Great vid! Like many others I've always wondered how they work!
Great video. Thanks for making it.
The work is so sick! I don’t even think I can make such thing. I’ve always wanted a rc sumpbmarine ever since I planned on making one
super quality that sub looks great
Thank you! I learned a lot...
really well explanation of the rc sub
looks cool, swims well good job
Damn nice and superbly engineered.
Masterpiece!
Very good video for rc submarines
Very interesting, thanks Dom and have a nice Weekend, from Switzerland greetings
Dom
@@akmalshaari7795 ffs
What a cracking bit of kit you have presented there mate.
I need to do one of these with videos under water. Very nice! Thank you!
Amazing...that explanation was really very clear
Glad you think so!
Absolutely amazing. This guy not only demonstrates how a real submarine works between the leveling planes working in tandem with how the ballast
Tanks flood in order in submerge it but he was also able to seal everything in an airtight enclosure. This submarine is no kids toy this is an advanced piece of technology that took a tremendous amount of knowledge. Hats off to you.
I am wondering how much money something like that goes for.
Thanks for the kind words. The water tight cylinder is actually made by OTW who produces the model kit so i can't take credit for that, take a look at OTW designs website for pricing. Thanks
Very cool bit of RC machinery!
Just add a CO2 torpedo!
Thanks for sharing. I learnt a lot there.
Love the gold/brass color of the metal hardware inside :P Looks so nice against the dark grey :P
Not just a colour, it will be brass, rather than brass painted steel. Brass doesnt rust....
Great video, even better modeling and craftsmanship.
Very interesting video with great camera work. Thanks for making and uploading it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
this was a great video Dom Very Informative and great to know exactly how the r/c submarine basically works, and very interesting i must say , btw that sub looks very scale as if miniature to the full size version , maybe one day i may just get one of these marvels of the sea, always fascinated me they have and having a r/c sub would be a treat i'd think thanks for another great video here Dom , Just Love Essential R/C - just awesome.
I am going to try to do more videos like this IF I can find friendly cooperative experts on my travels. Not always the case but I'll try. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Awesome and thanks for the explanation 👍🇳🇿
This is so cool... thank you sir... just what i wanted to see today.
When I was a kid growing up on the lake, I had always wanted to build a Rc sub with a camera on it so I could look at the fish. There was something fascinating to me about being able to see under the water in which I spent my whole day on fishing. Unfortunately, at that time I don't think there was enough technology do make one unless it had wires attached and I certainly didn't have access to the materials to make one. When I see this, it amazes me. Takes me back to my childhood dream. Someday, I just may still build one now that I have the funds and access to what I need. Very nice sub there! Thank you for the video.
Well done ,thanks to share it
Really interesting enjoyed video thamks
Thank for the insight 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃
This random question came into my head thinking about my little cheap rc sub I had as a kid. Wish I still had that thing more than anything to tear it apart see how it actually worked. Had a realization that RC subs still had to function like normal subs. Amazing amount of R.C technology
that's freaking awesome :0
A very cool video!
You are doing a great job i liked your work
gorgeous model...........very impressive and beautiful workmanship......I fly the airplanes and it looks like they are simpler......
wow you are very creative i really like this it's good
Is ridiculously good ......AMAZING
Thanks for showing this! You always have such awesome footage, but I bet you're super jealous of all these amazing toys!!!
Nah, I bet he keeps all the good stuff to himself 🤓
Excellent explanation of the subs operation. Underwater footage would have been awesome.
That’s effin dope bruh
Two thumbs up! That is so cool.
beautiful project
Excellent work
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow excellent
Fantastic lad 👍 place a camera on it and you could imagine you're making an episode of "Voyage to the bottom of the sea" 😎👍
What a gr8 video the man was a very nice chap too
Absolutely
Amazing great job
Pretty neat!!!
Very well presented video
Appreciate the feedback. Cheers Dom (Essential RC)
Thanks for sharing your subsmarime
Nice video cool
No problem 👍
Really nice!
Very cool
Cool, thanks!
I loved the video. the only thing that was missing was a periscope turning around while it was underwater!!!
You must be the Captain of this boat... dive, dive, dive. great job yaAll
Pray For Submarine 402 Indonesia 🙇
Very good
I saw (and took pics) of the HMCS Chicoutimi in Halifax dry dock back in 2005, due to that unfortunate "leaving the hatch open" during sea-faring operations. Nice to see this model is a bit more watertight then the real one. Fantastic engineering on the model Matt C - you should be proud!
Mike TeeVee That’s not what happened. Submariners don’t just “leave hatches open”. That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. Not sure who told you that story, but they’re an idiot. The boat was submerged and at PD when the fire happened. No hatch was left open.

VERY INTERESTING!!!
This is very cool. Was not aware of RC subs. Could use underwater digital acoustic modems if wanted to mount a camera and have control deep down. And desquise as a Shark sometimes for a fun time. very best RC sub I ever saw.
Your comment was great, until the shark comment. You must be one of those people that enjoys scaring people for your own gratification. That's called being narcissistic. I'd bet you wouldn't think it's funny to have one of your own family members in the water and have a (potential) shark come close to them and frighten them. Then again, you probably would. Anyone else would be pissed to find out it's someone like you with a radio controlled shark, who just scared their family, as a joke. Especially, if they were older and had health issues where it could be dangerous to them.
For Movies Not to frighten folks. Well Jaws scared hech out of me but looed fake up close
@@CJOlin However you seem to be someone looking to be pissed off or angered or offended. You seem like a keyboard warrior.
As a RET. US Navy Submariner I truly enjoyed this to the point I started having flashbacks, LOL!! But very nice Boat.
I am very strongly considering joining the U.S. Navy here soon. I had a fascination with subs as a child and now recently I'm wanting to go do it for real before its too late. (30 now).
Any advice you could give? From what I've learned attack subs look to be alot more interesting of a job than missle subs.
@@toki89666 Go for it, just be ready to accept a life change.
Good job
Really interesting
Hellooo matt your sub, i was in the navy hms upholder was our ship just watched your video 😉😉😉 kind regards sir
ไช
awesome !
Awesome man
Thanks!
Nice!
awesome
very cool. building rc sub is like creating an inside out ship in a bottle.
Congratulations Nice Video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
nice job
It’s amazing
it's beautiful
nice, thats really hightech
good explain
Interesting!
Glad you think so!
Very impressive ;)))
Awesome video! Always wondered about these! On a side note, there are some really noticeable artefacts from the video compression when the sub is in the water. Thank you for the video though!
Nice model.
