pls comment becouse i want to make torpedo similar to this :D

[nicktesla45]

That is a magnet he is holding and it triggers a magnetic reed switch that turns it on or off dending on how you set the polarity. You can also make Exploding Torpedoes by using Sodium Metal that will explode on contact with water . Be Very Carefull a small amount the size of a AAA battery can take out your hand or your arm . If you see your Girlfriend messing with the lifeguard you can sink her with a torpedo like the ones I have on my RC PT-boat But from my experience I advice against it !

Очень миниатюрный морторчик от вибровызова старого мобильного телефона подошел бы хорошо.

[zodoize]

Next step, Nuclear Warhead!!!!!!!!!!!

[M1xxDuP3ngu1N]

so no explosives? you need to add some

[crazyboy14xiv]

do you sell the torpedo if you do how much are they

[LegoScout09]

does it blow?

[maginathan]

how do u make a warhead

[stuya9]

first i thought those electronics were explosives

[14Funnydude]

Hello sir.........

Can u plz tell me the whole procedure of the making of the torpedo........

cuz i find yr vids very intresting and is awsome...........to talk to u ..............

Thnks you

[Knikebein]

@14Funnydude, Try one of my other vids where i explain with comment how i build my torpedo's

[14Funnydude]

@Knikebein

Sir but can u also tell me wat material is used 4 making a Submarine and wat things u need to make a whole RC submarine........

[Knikebein]

@14Funnydude, The hull is made from armed polyester, if you are interested in what it will take to make a rc submarine, try one  of the many modelbuilders forums, like rcgroups dot com

They have there all kind of types, most guys are making buildingreports about making their rc subs

[14Funnydude]

@Knikebein

Is the forum is yours and i have registered on it as Funnydude and now can u plz send me the things or the link showing a complete makin of rc submarine on the forum

Thnking

[Knikebein]

@14Funnydude, No this forum isn't mine, but a place where everybody shares their experience with building rc submarines, first try to open the topic boats, on one of the other chapters there is a forum about rc submarines.

If you choose a thread from that, you can follow the build from the start, there are many types of submarines present overthere, so enjoy.

[14Funnydude]

@Knikebein

Thnks u sir.......................

[tryithere]

@14Funnydude I can tell you the complete procedure for unmaking the torpedo.....CLICK, BOOOOOOM.

[14Funnydude]

@tryithere

than plz tell i will be highly obliged..........

[XSparrow76X]

if i want to build one, how many money must i spent in 1 torpedo for material ? Can you give me a construction manual ?

[Knikebein]

@XSparrow76X, the material list will be,

1 aluminum cigartube

1 magnetic reedswitch

2 micro batteries

1 micro e motor 1,5V

prop and shaft you have to make by your own, the end of the torpedo you can make from corck or hard wood on a lathe.

[XSparrow76X]

@Knikebein

wow, thx, i think its easier as i thought berfore. i will try to build some for my sub.

[jakeclark1012]

does it explode

[Seashepherdfan]

To get the tube just look up aluminum cigar tube. I found one on amazon but you would need to paint it because it has a ugly brownish color.

[sp4d3n]

How do you get the water on one side and the electroics on the other side?

[Knikebein]

@sp4d3n The torpedo housing is seald by using a rubber O ring this will keep the water outside the tube and the electronics dry

[fanboybff1]

looks cool i would love to have someone explain how it works

[madcombat7]

how did u make the torpedo

[madcombat7]

how did you make this

[MrKeroroTV]

nice elctrico magnetic feild thats crazy how much would you want for 1 torpedo? or not for sell

[Knikebein]

@MrKeroroTV Sorry, not for sale

[cichlid16]

This makes me want to buy a Barracuda TB and rig up something so I can torp bomb! : )

[Jasey1258]

how do you make submarines? message me

thanks

[ameiko76]

Where is the explosive head? mwhahaha

[drainx4]

its called a reed switch

[austinbakanec]

where did you get that

[megatwingo]

5*****

[solitajre222]

where did you get the engine?

[krishrocks17]

its nice can u help me in buiding an sub that would be of great help

[akman125480]

dude that is sweet

[cooliodude96529]

dude, thast huge, it would never fit on ym RC. Is it an RC torpedo, or a torpedo FOR an RC?

[Knikebein]

It's a torpedo for a rc submarine, try my other vids

[XgamesRULE]

does it explode

[helinator]

Your rc isn't the only size out there.

[anthonyr96]

im trying to make a torpedo small enough to launch out of maybe a 1/72 scale gato cruiser i estimate it to be 5 feet long id like to make torpedos for a smaller sized one but i cant make the torpedo small enough any suggestions

[Knikebein]

In your case i would go for the gastorpedo, at the webpage of rcgroups you can find more info

[rogierius]

Where is the warhead?

[Knikebein]

No warhead, the size of the torpedo is to small, i have only 2 grams of weight left before it sinks.

[compute9]

@Knikebein 2 grams of C4 could poke a hole in a lil kids toy boat

[Drinutdi]

Could you please suggest how i can move a propeller underwater without leaking water in the sub, and are there any products out there? Oh and instead of moving flaps to control pitch in my submarine i'm using a motor thath moves a wieght to upset the center of gravity. and the same for roll only on a leteral movment, however i still have to make a rudder to steer it? How can one make a water proof rudder?

[ironpeter2081]

what in that white tube that when you move it away turns on the torpedo?

[Knikebein]

That white tube contains a magnet, switching the torpedo on/off with the reedswitch.

[Komet163B]

I am trying to figure out the best way to build a contra-rotating propeller set up for a 1/9 scale torpedo, just like the real G7e electric torpedo.. I see your torpedo has a single propeller. Doesn't it suffer from torque roll and tend to want to spin around in the opposite direction of the electric motor's rotation, or all least roll to one side while running?

[Knikebein]

I use the contrarotation to stabilise the torp just like a bullet.

To make sure there is enough rotation and keep it straight in the water everything of the electric stuff is in the center of the torp.

[4apples]

How did you make this? im thinking about using the aluminium tube from a bad cigar for the front, but dont know hov to make the end yet, any suggestions?

[Knikebein]

I Had the same idea, and used the frontend of a cigartube, the back end is made of a special kind of plastick.

This plastick has the property to float, you can also use corck.

[4apples]

Thanks!!, il will rush down to my local hobby shop now. Thanks for this vid!

[merocks11738]

i have been trying to build a torpedo such as the one you used but i have been having a hard time with it. i know how the insides of you torpedoe works and my ideas are similar except mine has a warhead that uses a fire craker to tell the boat that it has been sunk. so the hardest part for me is the casing of the torpedo. did you make yours of buy it. if so where did you buy it. please help.

[NEEDCARS]

he used a cigartube to build it

[ghostofthedeep]

what kind of shaft seal do u use or how do u seal the shaft

[Kinke]

I had to laugh. I built the same thing 10 years ago with a pager motor and a reed switch from a microphone switch. I will have to do a video. The biggest draw back was the cost, ability to recover, and the torpedo would counter spin, reducing forward energy.

Kinke

[bstanko6]

you know what i apologize i did not see the other videos...you got a great looking model there and i hope you dont mind me taking notes for my typhoon class. Again, great work. You should be proud!

[bstanko6]

so do you use compressed air to eject the topredo, or maybe a push rod or something??

[Knikebein]

I use a springsystem to push the torpedo out of the tube.

[NEEDCARS]

i still dont get it where can i buy the magnet switch or is it home made?

[rudder314]

I think it's just a plain jane reed switch. This is clever since the magnet in the boat will keep the motor denergized, then when the spring kicks it out of the torpedo shaft (and away from the magnetic field) the motor activates propelling it away from the boat. Just a guess though.

[Knikebein]

You're right with your guess,you made a good discription how it works, the switch you can buy at every good electronicsshop

[ilovemthtrains]

Amazing!! LOL SUPER Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!
