Its some real nice hardware, and for it to last almost 2 years of constant use kind of tells you how well built it really is.

Might buy one for myself

It was more like a little over 3 feet but that is still 150% of the stated depth that the sub can go.

One thing with the U-16 the deeper it gets, the closer you need to be to the sub, the 27 MHz transmitter is not that powerful. The water really interferes with the single.

For it being a mass produced product. It has been the most reliable RC thing I have bought, I have been very lucky with it.

It does not have a "made in" stamp on it so I'm assuming it is made in Germany since the company is located in Germany. The Germans do know how to make good submarine.

And I would encourage anyone to get it.

It's allot of fun I got mine at Hobby-Lobby for $50

You know.
The guys at Hobby-Lobby and that hobby store in Athens, Greece. That 167 people have watched my video from their site and that might've bought the sub because of the video, you guys need to show me some love, some appreciation in these hard time. $$$
