Probably were using expired glue, as Stockton Rush boasted about using discounted carbon fiber from Boeing that was past its shelf life for usage in airplanes.
Recycled parts? That's simply being too dumb to be alive on this world. And I thought putting a wireless xbox controller for navigating the damn sub was dumb enough.
Frankly that controller was probably the most reliable part of the sub
If it was setup properly, you just us an if statement like, "if communication lost to control for t>5 seconds, release balast" or something like that. I had 0 issue with the controller being an ots consumer good. The rest was an idiotic design, I won't even say it was engineered.
