Homebuilt ROVs Forum

May you please post a picture? I have been looking how to make an effective mesh.

I don't see why this is necessary. You can just send commands from a computer to the one in the water (or above water with many tether lines).

I like it. Although with an on-board battery, you might want to consider a way to easily access it. I would suggest maybe a waterproof toolkit. They sell them at Academy in various sizes.
