Today I measured out where my gears need to be located inside of the box. I drilled a shallow hole in the bottom of my box and put a piece of a a coffee stirer that would act as low friction base for the gear shaft into the hole. I also glued the wooden pieces that will keep the first motor in place as well as the pieces of wood that will hold the receiver and battery pack in place.
Please check BBS for detailed message via buoyancy/weight testing-both instructors have made numerous requests that you physically test vessel-so far you have not done so-calculations do not confirm that your vessel will be able to carry anticipated weight as that part of the project appears to be ongoing-successful completion of course cannot be attained without physical testing that is documented and observed, at this point, by your instructors-without testing and wihtout successful buoyancy you will have to reconstruct your project-you both must work together to ensure that the vesssel can successfully complete its intended mission----------cmcd
