Has anyone tried using Speakon connectors by Neutrik? They look like they could be cheap, easy to use waterproof connectors. They have 2, 4, and 8 pole versions with each pole able to handle 40 amps. I linked a picture to the 2 pole version. https://imgur.com/QBxeXtS

Looks nice. Keep up the good work!

I don't know if you still need help but McMaster has O-rings along with a bunch of other hardware. http://www.mcmaster.com/

Thanks for the download! Sorry to bother you again but can you also post your model of the Turnigy NTM Prop Drive Series 2836 750kv? I am going to make a modification to the thruster mount and I need the dimensions of the motor. Mine are on their way from China right now and I'm impatient...plus you...

Nice thrusters! I was wondering if you could be so nice to post the cad files of your thrusters. I might 3d print some for my new ROV I'm working on!

After my last ROV, I discovered that vectored thrusters work best with equal forward and reverse thrust. The typical RC boat prop is curved in a way to maximize forward thrust sacrificing back thrust (that's why rc boats go fast forward but are REALLY slow backward.) This rules out boat props for ve...

If I know how much thrust my motor & prop combo gives off, is there a way to calculate where it would be the most effective on a plane with 3 other motors. I would imagine that some overlap would waste thrust and spaced too far apart there could be not enough thrust hindering performance. The ci...

Cool idea. Saw this on Hackaday a few days ago.

Been a bit busy lately, but finally got some time to update my ROV.
