Just some old vid of my uboat when I was testing it last year. I added some sonar pings etc to jazz it up a bit.

BTW
If anyone tells you a 750 Engle tank isn't big enough for a U47, have a look at the pic of mine in the rain below at what I think is a fairly scale height out of the water when the foam is all dry it sits there. That's with Modelbrass deck kit too, which is heavier to lift out of the water than the standard plastic ones. It sinks like a rock when you fill the tank to dive as you can see in the video above.
The decks wern't clipped down properly in that photo, so they bulge a bit.
