Homebuilt ROVs Forum

cool, thanks! ill post pictures and make a progress update in the ROVs section of the forums under D-ROV.

for a control system I am thinking of using four 500 GPH bilge pump cartridges. and controlling them through just a simple forward/reverse switch. I'm not very good at electronics so this method seems right up my alley.

This is my first rov project and I'm very excited! this is really all i have so far, but i'm going to add motors and flotation. for thrusters I'm using 4 500gph bilge pump cartridges. and for the cameras im using a radio shack web cam. by the way the "d" in D-ROV is short for "W"...

is this the motor you bought?

If so, how did you like it?

Hello, I have been obsessing about ROVs for about 6 months now and have finally started my build! I have been doing some research and this is the design that I came up with.
