Mini RC Submarine

Okay, so this is not really a gadget but it is a cool toy. This thing is about 7cm long and takes to the water like a duck... err... more like a seal actually. There is a neat 'turbo dive' button sitting on top of the remote controller. Pressing this button sends the sub under really quickly. There is also a front headlight for those deep exploration missions - in a murky swimming pool or something. Radio control is up to 3 meters. You can make the sub go up/down, left/right and forward/backward. The controller unit is powered by 2 AAA batteries. The sub is powered by 1 AAA battery which could last you up to 2 hours. The sub also comes with a ballast that you could choose to mount to adjust the buoyancy. What I need to do is to mount a micro camera on the sub and then fashion some sort of torpedo unit.... I gotta have one!
