D&E Sub-Drivers™

 

1

Don’t Leave Port Without One!

It's a WTC (water tight cylinder -- a term invented by David D Merriman lll nearly two decades ago) and much, much more. The D&E sub-driver™ is your submarine’s control room, ballast control center, and engine room all in one package. Each D&E sub-driver™ comes with installed servos, water tight seals, motor and gear reduction unit, and a complete gas type ballast system -- all systems installed, checked out and ready to make your submarine hull come alive in the water.

Sub-Driver

State-of-the-art technology from the master of submarine model making - David D Merriman III
