Building a Lego-powered Submarine 3.0 - balloon and compressor
Depth control is done with an air-filled balloon and a Lego-compressor. Steering is done by turning the propeller direction with the help of linear magnetic coupling. Otherwise it’s more of the same as before. Swimming pool and lake tests at the end. Enjoy!
