Homebuilt ROVs Forum

That's a great design. I'm looking forward to seeing it in action.

That looks great. Good to see you're back at it.

The increased pressure shouldn't be a problem. The longer the cable, the greater the voltage drop. Phone cable's cheap, give it a try, see what happens.

I don't think the Velleman is going to do what you want. I just sends an ON signal from the transmitter to the receiver. I use 2 of them to control 18 relays on my Seafox ROV.

Nice! I like the design.
