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
