Single Channel Remote for submarines

Stumbled across these old articles from Grid Leaks Magazine from 1965.



The sub used a Ace Kraft Single Channel remote to control all functions. I was wondering, with the impending demise of AM/ FM radios operating in Mhz range would it be possible to build these old radios using newer electronics. It was possible to fly an RC plane using a single channel, using it on a slower moving sub should be a problem.

I fondly remember reading (and re-reading many times!) that article a long time ago - not quite in 1965!  And yes we are doing work on using 27Mhz but using current technology. It is not easy because we are a niche hobby and so commercial interest is limited, but have a look at the thread on here on 27 MHz

And the disappointing update to this thread (post no. 92)
