We need a submarine re-visit please, Matt.
I was grinning like a school kid the entire video. It's just too awesome.
SAME!! I smiled oh so very much when it went underneath the surface the first time!
me a school kid
Where is the revisit Matt? You know, with great powers comes the great responsibility of making another video on this >:D
maybe its a complete redesign to make it cheap and easy to build :)
Agreed! I wanted to see it go in deeper water!
I'm enormously impressed with your ability to find parts that fit together with minimal modification.
I know right, how does he do that
Plot twist: Matt is the heir to the Perspex empire, and can have acrylic parts made to order at a moment's notice.
Lots of research
@@VladIDrago wander away.
This is my favorite as well. And my own personal style. I live in the country but one day uploading video won't be a PITA. 😂
Had so much fun working on this challenge! Can’t wait for our next collab and to release my video showing my ROV finally working perfectly! 😃

Those ocean gate engineers should pay close attention
The issue was less the engineers and more the CEO who said he refused to hire white guys or military veterans. You could be a good engineer, but if your CEO is deliberately not hiring subject matter experts for a left wing agenda, you can do your best at your specialty but you just won't have the background to properly use your skills since engineering is not a comprehensive career.
@@DaveSmith-cp5kjnow the poor guys has deaths on their conscious just because their boss was a toush.
@@DaveSmith-cp5kjHe was a right wing billionaire. That was his script so he could underpay people less who had lessons experience. He did not want to listen to anyone who told him no.
@@cat-le1hf He was a left winger, not right winger. I've never heard of a right winger who refused to hire military vets or white dudes on the basis of skin color. Hating the military and being race obsessed is exclusively left leaning behavior.
There was a report that claimed he was a right wing megadonor but it later was revealed that the article was just written to obfuscate his statements as the truth was he only donated in a local campaign in Texas in a small amount over two decades ago, and his motivation was likely more due to business than politics.
Plus he basically spent his whole life in California and nearly all of his career in the most left wing areas like San Francisco. You aren't exactly going to find right wingers hanging around SF with all the drugs and legalization of theft. lol
@@xMadMazx Yeah. Although I don't blame them, they did the best they could with dysfunctional leadership. And frankly the passengers can only blame themselves for not doing their own research. This guy apparently had to lower his price several times because no one wanted to get in it, that should have been a clue to the people who signed up that this wasn't a great idea. Lots of people were invited and most refused to sign on due to the obvious detachment from modern naval architecture.
I bet this is way more resistant that Ocean Gate sub

So many youtubers underestimate the power of them explaining what they are doing as they do it. I made it 15mins in without thinking about it and rewinded multiple times to really comprehend what you were saying before being pleasantly surprised this was a 30min video. Big fan of everything you do and especially a fan of your knowledge and ability to explain and articulate. Definitely smashed that sub button.

Honestly shocked we didn’t hear something like: “Now this first section here is for the ℙ𝕆𝕎𝔼ℝ ℂ𝕆ℝ𝔼. I’ll be using a small molten salt nuclear reactor that I’ve cobbled together from some leftover bits lying around the garage, but you could also get away with lithium batteries if you don’t have the supplies available.”
One thing, (even if it has almost nothing to do with that) that crossed my mind reading that: miniature RBMK 1000. Underwater Chernobyl.
Gotta stockpile those old smoke detectors.
Diy nuclear submarine. That would be a neat story at parties
🤣
@@IRMacGuyver This makes me wonder if you heard the story of teenager that actually did that and literally tried to build a small reactor. If not suffice to say they succeeded in contaminating the local neighbourhood. Probably not surprising considering that forcing a nuclear reaction of some kind isn't that difficult engineering a system to isolate, shield and get power out of it is harder.
Between yours, James and Peter's recent subs I think I need to finally get off my ass and make one to take off the coast. They look like such a challenging and rewarding project.

I'd love to see what I imagine to be hours and hours of planning, design, testing, and repeat to get to the designs that you've made videos on. This skill in itself is invaluable to aspiring creators/makers and all your videos completely skip over this step.
This looks like a spaceship.
The part with the linear resistor is brilliant, an absolute 200 IQ move!
no roll control tho
@@wolf2403 why would you need roll control?
@@spacegamer6906 In case the sub hits turbulent perturbations in the water that either messes with it's roll directly or even it's pitch (Operating either of the buoyancy controls in isolation will also cause roll as it lacks the counterrotating screw to balance the roll torque it produces).
@@seraphina985 thanks, didnt know that
Love the project. Can't wait for version two! Three suggestions:
1.) Use a sensor to determine if the sub is level and then you can automatically adjust the two boyancy motors. There is a good chance going faster or going against currents will alter your level. This can easily be done with a cheap rc flight controller. It's overkill, but cheap and easy. Someone know of a dedicated sensor?
2.) Instead of having separate sets of thrusters to rotate and also "slide" left/right, just use one set of four. Engage 2 on one side to "slide" and engage one on each side (front/back) to rotate.
3.) I love Mr. Gadget's idea of a periscope. However, a traditional one would be very complicated. You already have a floating periscope platform where your receiver is located. Mount a second camera/video-tx with the ability to rotate and you can really take advantage of the long range that your rc set-up allows. Plus you can look around without having to surface. Disguise the whole floating part as a lilly pad and you have a true watery spy craft!
Underrated comment, u could make a lily pad nuke!
(Sorry I spend too much time in the r/Kurzegesagt subreddit XD)
If he gets an RC flight controller for quadcopters, it could easily be programmed to do both 1 and 2 automatically with the same controls he is using in the video. It can be set to have the left control stick left/right activate the opposite side thrusters, and the right stick left/right can have it turn the rotational pairs go automatically. He is already on 2.4 GHz too, so as an ecosystem it would make sense. I was already coming here to suggest brushless motors/propellers but his associate in the video already suggested it. These extra things don't cost him anything but money as well, since he has so much ballast in there already since it's huge.
OceanGate Inc furiously taking notes as we speak.

TH-cam is shady man... recommending this now😂

Brilliant! What a marvelous first attempt! Would more batteries and larger thrusters be better as ballast? Let the additional mass work for its passage instead of 'deadheading.' :)
Great idea!
Bigger batteries allowing for more run time and more powerful motors. 🙌
@@boonjabby Don't think powerful motors is necessary. I think a slow cruise of underwater exploration is nice enough. I would rather have more Light.
@@Helveteshit Having more power doesn't mean you HAVE to use it and break Mach 1, with the joysticks I imagine you could control the speed for a slow exploration cruise but it's nice to have the extra speed when it's time to get it back to shore. I agree with the lights though,
Yep, just means he can add just under an additional 4kgs which is quite a lot of room, but not in volume... or you can adjust the starting internal pressure to calibrate the ballast also.
Cylindrical Lithium Titanate cells would be perfect for maxing out battery and battery weight

It's a slippery slope. I also thought "I could make this if I had a soldering iron". Later I bought one. Then I thought "I could make this if I had a rotary tool". Ended up buying one as well.

Matt, don't forget about safety!
If the sub goes too deep, it can pull its antenna under the water and you lose control.
It is necessary to add an emergency system that will force the boat to surface if the signal is lost. For example, dump the ballast.
Co2 cartridge powered airbags for emergency buoyancy?
Okay genius
make the float for the antenna more buoyant than the sub has weight with full ballast tanks under water. that way it can't pull the float down and you don't need some complicated emergency system

Of course I’m just now getting recommended this
An older AM transmitter and receiver has a better submerged range, or even a 36MH FM set, also the analogue servos are a great idea as they require less power the closer they get to their commanded position. Digital servos are always using power to 'hold' in commanded position - slightly different system. Great project, loved it
+1 When I saw the flysky come out, I was expecting a loss of craft at some point :)
lower frequency have better range under water so it would be best to use the lower frequency possible
I was just going to mention that. I remember having AM and FM radio control gear back in the 90s and 00s for cars and airplanes. While obviously not as stable a signal as 2.4GHz, an AM system would likely work quite well underwater! 👍🏻
I suppose with that solution it would work even better if the the antenna from he steering unit would be submersed too? It would eliminate the signal losses when transferring from air to water? Don't real submarines have any specific antenna configuration to communicate with the external world? If they have such methods, they most probably will about never be allowed to use it when doing their sneaky business.
@@tuttebelleke US and Russian military submarines can receive when submerged, other nations need to surface to communicate. A careful scan of the surrounding sea is needed before surfacing and they use high frequency tight beams aimed at satellites. The ultra-low frequencies used to transmit to submerged submarines have wavelengths measured in kilometres, so the transmissions come from aircraft trailing cables several kilometres in length as antennae. It is possible to build ground stations close to shore, but they are easy targets because of the huge and fragile antennae so aircraft are used instead.
The U.S. Navy has a project called SeaPerch that is a STEM outreach program for high schools. I suggest looking into it for some ideas. I remember reading the documentation, which was designed to help student overcome various obstacles using very cheap solutions. One thing I noticed that you may want to look into is the tethering cord. ROV tethers are neutrally buoyant. If I remember correctly, the solution they came up to that issue was to attach pieces of foam pipe insulation every foot or so to counter the weight of the line.
Thats not a bad idea honestly
thats what they use in the swimming halls so

@Dito Alfrido I can see an application for that to fishing, like under an icy lake
The problem with your "competitors" sub may not just be the weight of the tether, also the fact that that he used water to achieve neutral bouancy. He will naturally have slack tanks / free surface effect, causing the weights to shift with every movement. Best option to achieve neutral buoancy is permanent (ie fixed) ballast that does not have room to move. It is possible to achieve this with water, though you need to reverse engineer the weight needed.
Your idea to work from the center, with the battery pack probably being the heaviest, made it probably have naturally more of a neutral trim, though it seems that after adding the weights you have small trim issue, probably meaning you are just a few grams off in one end as it is floating quite well from the looks of it. Would love to see how it behaved in a bit deeper water though, it seems to be quite decent, though maybe a bit underpowered.
Another issue with trying to achieve neutral buoyancy before submerging is that the conditions of the water will greatly affect how much needs to be displaced to be considered "neutral". Things like temperature, salinity (salt content), and pressure will limit just how deep that submarine can go and how well it performs. In particular the sub's inability to regulate the pressure of the air inside its ballast tank will make it so either there's a maximum depth to which it can descend; or if it _can_ go deep enough, it'll result in the ambient water pressure being so great it compresses the air inside more and more as it sinks to the sea bed like a rock. The latter would be a somewhat greater issue for DIY Perks' submarine as it relies exclusively on the pressurised ballast tanks for buoyancy where ProjectAir's vessel will be able to counteract somewhat by using the propellers and fins to orient itself vertically and push itself back up.
Submarines are complicated, yo.
Better solution would be single buoyancy tank and move-able ballast section which will auto-balance vessel as it goes.
@@notean That would complicate things a bit though. A simpler solution would be to add additional servo to control the two syringes separately, and being able to ballast forward and aft independently. Though suspect a combo of channels on the remote and/or space / weight restrictions might rule that out.
@@TheZirMc IMO it would make things more complicated as you must constantly compute pressure of tank1, tank2, depth and desired angle . It is possible to with computer controller but not simple. You must constantly fiddle with 2 motors to get balance. In my way you can set/freeze depth and set/freeze angle separately.
It is hilarious that this is being shown to me on the homepage 😂
That sir is one fine machine, great design and looks incredible.
I really like "unrollling" the servos into the syringe position control. That's great work, every part presented was more clever than the last. You can economize on your thrusters though! You currently have 4 translational and 4 rotation pumps. You should be able to use the transmitter's mixing control so that (for example) the left-right of the throttle stick runs opposite ends in opposing directions and the left-right of the right stick runs them together for translation. That will free up 4 pumps and 2 channels.
Or he could keep perhaps keep both sets of pumps for extra flexibility, that way you get the flexibility to use both sets of thrusters just to turn or translate if you want to also.
I second this. Was just about to suggest the same, although my vocabulary wouldn't be as sophisticated 😅
Anyone else notice a lot of engineering creators making submarines? They must know something we don't

THIS WAS SO MUCH FUN. I didn't expect to enjoy a submarine build that much, but I did.
Keep surprising us Matt.
Very cool build~
If you want to try a design without a tether you could use a radio operating at a much lower frequency that'll stand more of a chance piercing the water. As you pointed out 2.4GHz just gets absorbed too quickly for any useful depth.
As a precaution you could have it surface on loss of contact by binding one of the channels to always transmit. When the receiver loses that signal have it surface so you don't lose it ;)
Do you think a 27mhz radio would work better?
Most recent rc transmitter have a failsafe option which can set a servo to a desired position if signal is lost.
In his case he could set it to empty the ballast.
i have a feeling that would make it much more challenging to get the live video feet at a good resolution
@@ILikeFryz 27MHz should work well. I would recommend checking if that band is legal to operate in your country as it varies depending on where and what you're using it for.
What an awesome project! Quite unique and smart approach!
could you build this to go 4000 meters down in the ocean

Your kind of creativity is one of a kind! I'm very impressed every time i stumble over your channel.
It's a pleasure to watch your clips!
2023 has the plans for the sub been revised 😅 love your channel
this man went from literally designing a silent pc cooling system, to making submarines. hats off to you man.
Excellent build! I'd love V2 to have more speed (rear prop?) and an element of hydrofoil control. The water pumps looked quite weak and I'm not sure you could maintain control in moving water like the sea. My instinct is that significant forwards motion combined with hydrofoils should allow you to quickly change depth by moderate amounts without actually changing the boyancy syringes.
Yeah, the prop would be way more power efficient and faster than a thruster motor.
I would like to see this revisited and improved version of the submarine. This is a very cool project!
More of this please! This is my absolute favorite video of yours :D
I love how he explains the reasons behind selecting a particular component.
Your videos have a certain quality about them: they are pleasant to watch, relaxing and calming even, due to fluently but surely moving the viewer into a creative and positive mindset. They also emanate a contagious enthusiasm. Keep this on. :) This is your trade mark, your own creation you can be proud of and feel fulfillment about, Matt. :) Cheers!

I really like your approach. Great engineering!
"buoyancy relies on the weight of the object being less or equal to the weight of the water it displaces" why couldn't my teachers all through highschool and college explain it like that? Literally INSTANTLY understood exactly how it works after being slightly confused by the concept my whole life.
If you are confused by buoyancy ❤️ they you are most likely stupid

@@stevep250 I was lucky, I got a cool teacher who was both good at teaching and also funny. I did quite a good bit of learning thanks to how he explained stuff like that in ways that made sense for my stupid 18 year old brain.
You had some odd teachers. That’s the easiest way to explain it. Then you throw the Archimedes principle in and you’re basically done. I’ve never heard it explained NOT like this.
1:20 Most subs actually remain at neutral buoyancy all the time when under water and instead use dive planes to 'fly' the sub underwater. Only going to negative buoyancy for a crash dive and positive for surfacing.
Yea a maneuverable sub will have planes for control, a more scientific exploration sub will have thrusters that can doe the same thing to maintain station keeping.
Buoyancy alone and on a small scale is not that stable.
But yea you do need to get the boyancy rigth, even the biggest subs are "trimmed" as its called for nutrual buoyancy but maneuvers are done with planes or thrusters.
I think some pods for station keeping should help.
Also I think one can reduce the pumps by half, no need two have 8 pumps, 4 for pushing it sideways and 4 for rotating it, a mixer could be used to mix the signals to make it do both with only 4 pumps.
Also that can be reduced to 2 if one uses a prop in a duct instead that can run in reverse.
Im impressed by the subs but if he wants to improve on it and make it more stable and simple this could be one way to do it.
if you would make this as a complete diy kit I would absolutely buy it! I had so much fun watching this vid, your design is amazing!
Im excited to see what you do with this it was so satisfying to watch you make it and wish to see this thing be sold and available for anyone its absolutely sick looking
