  • AMAZING RC SUBMARINE TORPEDO FIRING/LAUNCH DEMONSTRATION
    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.
    Filmed by Dom Mitchell for the 'Essential RC' UA-cam channel at the Southern Model Show using the Panasonic AG-UX180 Pro 4K camcorder.

      yes, it's very difficult to mimic the real vessel physics in such a small scale/weight; look at the asymetrical diving for example, or the banking when turning; and firing a torpedo with no FPV from the tubes is also very difficult; thumbs up for the detail and realistic torpedo launching and trajectory.

    I sailed to Hong-Kong and back, in a Canadian-Built ‘Liberty Ship’ called RFA FORT CONSTANTINE, between 1954 & 1955. She looked remarkably similar to the model, here.

    Great work. Now all you need is one of this little 'banger' fireworks that kids throw on the ground mounted in the nose of the torpedo to make a sound on impact.
    It was a beautiful ship model as well.

    If the germans were that bad of a shot with their torpedoes we might have stayed out of WWI...
    I didnt know that they had these RCs.... When I was a kid about 8 years old I wanted to get a remote control SeaView, the submarine from the Irwin Allen TV show "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea".
    Of course they didn't have those back then. Instead they had these little plastic submarines that you would put a little baking soda in the bridge area with some vinegar I think that would make it sink and rise in the bathtub.
    Always wanted the Flying Sub too... I had a good imagination for a kid... too good for my poor folks.
    This was cool to see... thanks for posting.

      @@joeellis2692 You're wrong. In 1915, Germany declared the waters surrounding the British Isles to be a war zone, and German U-boats sunk several commercial and passenger vessels, including some U.S. ships.
      Widespread protest over the sinking by U-boat of the British ocean liner Lusitania-traveling from New York to Liverpool, England with hundreds of passengers on board. All were killed, and that's what got the United States to go into WWI after the protests became loud enough for Washington,DC to care about.

      I've seen modified party poppers towed underwater behind RC boats. They worked quite well and did see a vid of an explosive torpedo from a RC sub that actually caused damage to the ship it hit...but I agree something is needed to make the impact more explosive.
