Subject: [alt-beam] Re: Steering an Aquabot and giving it a purpose.
Hey!
Just thought of a way to make my manta 'dive'. Mantas have a tail, right?
Make the tail so that it can become rigid so that it curves down to dive and
curves up to surface! May be a bit difficult from a mechanical standpoint.
Could be done with a flexible tube and a string attached through the inside
to the top and bottom of the end. The only thing is pulling the string.
More cranial victuals!
