Comment on Infamous $30 Logitech F710 called out in $50M lawsuit over Titan sub implosion
A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 3 months agoWasnt the carbon fiber body rated for like, 1/3rd the depth that they dove to?
It was very NASA O-Ring vibes. “We did it once, so we can do it every time” at least until they cant anymore, and that cant is usually accompanied by regret and poor innocent people being salsafied.

Carbon fiber wasn’t rated for any depth. It’s shit for compression and you don’t need light materials for a submersible.

No, you’re right… I think it was the winshield bubble that was rated for 1/3rd the depth? I know something was rated for a far shallower depth than what the dumbass CEO made the sub repeatedly go to.

Also, these materials compress at different rates.
An off the shelf controller wasn’t a terrible idea, but of course it was blue tooth and had pairing issues on previous trips
