Check out the Assembly Video for this cylinder on my YouTube Channel.
NOTE: This product line has been discontinued in favor of our new 255 Series units, which will be open for orders Sept 14th, 2024. Thank you for your patience while we re-tool and set up for this awesome new product line.
The 250 Series SubDriver has been designed by the Nautilus Drydocks to incorporate maximum flexibility and ease of assembly, maintenance and upgrade. It is the smaller version of the 300 Series unit, and measures 2.5" in outside diameter, perfect for any boat with a beam larger than 3.5".
250 Series SubDriver V2 Features:
- 2.5" diameter electronics and battery compartments
- High strength plastic tubing
- High strength bulkheads
- Gas backup sub-system
- Low friction cup-style linkage seals with easy maintenance and replacement
- Metal gear servos for maximum torque and throw
- Two forward and two aft linkage outputs (rudder, rear planes, forward planes, spare)
- Single high-torque brushless motor power
- Optional dual shaft gearbox
- High capacity air pump
- Air ballast means the FULL capacity of the ballast tank is utilized, unlike pressure ballast systems
- Compartment lengths can easily be re-sized to suit nearly any boat of adequate beam

These cylinders ship fully assembled and tested for linkage and motor actuation as well as cylinder watertight integrity. Each one is certified prior to shipping. Some final installation of components such as radio gear, pitch controller, failsafe, remote switches, etc will be required on behalf of the builder.
