The Dragon Shark by Arkmodel is reasonably priced for a static diving sub kit. If I recall correctly, RC Warbirds even brought in one batch a few years. Main reason why I didn't buy it then is that it isn't scale. But for Arkmodel kits, I must caution you that the instructions provided are not comprehensive and often not very clear.
For beginners, I feel a better sub to start with is the Thunder Tiger SB1 which is available in both kit and RTR. For the kit, its instructions are excellent and there are also a few thread discussions on this in RCgroups. It is bright and clearly visible in shallow water but again, it is non-scale although I read one creative chap on the internet who modified it to look like some oceanic research mini sub.
I am unable to think of any cheap sub model to recommend you, especially those under the static diving category. If you are prepared to try dynamic diving instead, there could be some less costly ones.
Cheers.
