RC-Conversion Kit Seawolf 1/144 for Trumpeter Kit
For the conversion kit of the Seawolf in scale 1/144 we have come up with
something special. The main focus of the design was on the simple structure,
the very good handling of the model in operation and, above all, a user-friendly
maintenance accessibility. For this purpose, all components were
manufactured in CNC production. The tower remains removable for
transporting the model. We had have a special focus on the drive shaft. For the
twelve-leaf sickle propeller are brass turned and milled parts included. The
model includes a static diving system.
Included are all parts needed for the completition of the plastic kit from
Trumpeter to the static diving model, stand for pressure hull and presentation
stand with engraved name on it. Needed are two 9g servos, two ESCs, a
1500mAh 3S Lipo-Battery, trim weights, the plastic kit and a remote control
system.

RC-Conversion Kit Kilo-Class 1/144 for Trumpeter Kit
Due to their size, submarine models usually require quite large and high-
quality waters. Unfortunately, these are often hard to find. In order not to have
to give up the hobby, we have closed a gap with the RC kit for the 55cm long
kilo class. The new kit is the third boat of our handy 1 / 144er series. In order to
be able to dive static even in small ponds, we have specially developed for this
submarine a compact pump for a finely dosed amount of ballast. The short
diving times, tight turning radii and very good-natured control characteristics
underscore the purpose of the vest pocket submarine model. In addition to the
finished functional model, the time that comes with the assembly of the kit
comes to the fore. To make it as comfortable as possible for the modeler, we
have used CAD-supported graphics for the construction manual. For the
assembly, only the remote control system, two motor controllers, battery and
two 3.7 grams of servos are needed.
RC-Conversion Kit: 299,95€
Brass Propeller: 14,95€
Parts for functional front dive planes: 7,90€

RC-Conversion Kit H.M.S. Astute for Trumpeter Kit
With a length of 67cm, the model of the Astute Class submarine has no special
requirements for transport and driving waters. Despite the handy size of this kit
currently makes our most extensive kit. Thus, the content includes, in addition
to two large milled plates for pressure hull and outer hull, CNC milled
aluminum linkages for the rudders, diving system and drive shaft. The
construction presents the modeler no major hurdles in assembly. Also at the
H.M.S. Astute, we remained true to our directive, as far as possible to rely on
tools from plastic model construction during assembly. A construction manual
created in CAD leads the model builder through the construction phase and
provides tips for the electrical system and the installation of the wiring.
The model impresses with extremely tight turning circle and a true-to-scale
speed spectrum. The peristaltic pump, developed and manufactured in-house,
guarantees precise diving behavior in every position. These properties allow
operation of the model without any electrical stabilization systems.
For the completition, a Lipo battery with 3S1500mAh, two 3.7g servos, two
motor controller, remote control and receiver are needed.
RC-Conversion Kit (Release Prize) : 284,99€
Conversion Kit without pump and drive shaft: 215,04€
pump: 49,95€
drive shaft: 20,00€

Trim-System for 70mm Pressure Hull
Our newly developed trim unit overcomes the difficulties of fine trim. Using a
free channel, trimming can be done in real time in the water by shifting a
weight. Due to the good accessibility, the ballast can be adapted to the
individual model according to individual taste, until the influence of the module
on the position of the boat in the water is agile controllable. In conjunction with
a Y-cable, the unit can support the depth rudder effect. The content of this kit
consists of black CNC-milled parts, the screws and a CAD construction
manual. The space is designed for a 9g servo.
The trim unit can be combined with all 70mm pressure hulls from our
production from the 2018 series.

RC-Conversion Kit 212a 1/144 Revell
The kit for the 212a of the German
navy in scale 1/144 includes all
components to create a dynamically
diving model. The kit is aimed
primarily at the model maker, who is
taking his first steps in submarine
construction, as the dynamic diving
of the boat without ballast system
allows an uncomplicated emergence
in dangerous situations. The
components for the kit were CNC
machined. The pressure hull caps are
turned parts. Specially new sealings
have been developed for the
requirements of this small kit.

Ballast-Systems
Diving Bag System 35,00€
The dive bag system
provides a convenient
and accurate way to
create a static
submersible submarine
model. Small installation
dimensions, simple
construction and
uncomplicated function
characterize this system.
Only a ESC with at least
6A is required for control.
For the diving bag we
only use durable latex balloons.
Dates:
Pump rate 0.6l / min, voltage 12-14V at 6A
Shipping Content:
Pump, diving bag (1x reserve), hose material, valve
Diving Bag1,25€
Black diving bag for ballast tank systems from Maximus-Modellbau made of
durable latex
Magnetic Valve 5,95€
This valve works already from a voltage of 12V and is closed when de-
energized. Via a motor controller or switching module as a reliable outboard
closure on pressure hulls.
Gear Pump 25,00€
This pump in conjunction with the ballast bag and solenoid valve is a cost
effective way to realize a static submersible submarine. The pump rate is 0.6 l /
min at 12V (4A max.). For operation, a brush motor controller is suitable, on
which the pump and valve are connected in parallel.
9
Ballasttank 70mm 80,00€
The ballast tank of the 70mm class was developed especially for the Robbe
submarines of the 212a and U47, as
well as for self-construction
projects. The tank can be used as a
module in existing scaffolds (e.g.,
Wikinger Modellbau) and includes a
diving sack system that keeps the
center of gravity while diving. To
control a brush motor controller is
required with at least 6A.
Doppeltank 70mm 99,95€
The double tank was developed to
achieve a fast dive time via two
pumps. Furthermore, both pumps
may be e.g. be addressed via a V-
mixer, which can be adjusted via an
external channel, the trim position of
the submarine.

Perstaltic Pump Maximus-Modellbau
Our peristaltic pump was
developed for extremely
small installation spaces.
Since there is usually no
space left for a valve, the
pump is self-sealing. Thus,
when installing only one
intake manifold must be
set and a line to the dive
tank. The flow rate is finely
adjustable via a normal
proportional controller.
The housing, as well as
the PTFE components
inside ensure a smooth running.
The voltage range is wide at 3-12V, which allows flow rates of up to 240ml / min.
(12V).
In combination with a diving bag, the pump is suitable for the most difficult installation
spaces. The filling of a piston tank is also possible.
Made in Germany - all components and assembly of the pump are done in-house!
Prize: 49,95€

Sealings
Micro Push Rod Sealing 5,95€/St.
This is probably the smallest push rod sealing in the world. It was designed by
us especially for the most difficult installation conditions in submarine models.
The diameter is 6mm and the length only 12mm. Thus, the socket is completely
retractable in our pressure hull end caps. The push rod sealings serves to
guide rods for the articulation of rudders pressure-tight from the boat interior.
Lateral forces on the linkage play no role in this case, since the wire is guided
over the entire length of the sealing and can not tilt. The contact pressure of
the internal sealing can be individually adjusted via a adjusting screw. For the
lubrication of the seal commercial Vaseline is used.
