Test Run Tomorrow

We are all ready for our second test run tomorrow morning! In preparation Peter and I have successfully tested the submarine motor at a full 24 volts. We accomplished this by daisy chaining the deep cycle batteries. We also installed a test system for the front ballast tank: We installed a pipe with a stopper valve that opens and closes with a lever that can be turned from outside the sub. We will be able to test the tank underwater to better understand the sensitivity of the ballast system. We will be meeting tomorrow at 11:00am at my house.

See you all then!
