I'm currently doing a FYP project on RC submarine. After designing the submarine, i have got concerns over water leaking into the gearbox and motor chamber through the propelling shaft.
In my design, what i could think of was just to use rubber-sealed bearings which might not be sufficient to stop water from seeping in. The submarine is suppose to go under water abt 10m, so the water pressure is pretty high. Anyone here have the expertise in this field, or has got ideas or concepts in designing the propelling drive-train of submarines to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance~~~=)
