Specs:
Hull: 110mm high pressure PVC pipe (tested in pressure tank to 25m)
Thrusters: 3x Rule 1100 GPH 24V bilge pumps
Motor drivers: 2x 2 channel MD22 double H-bridge motor controllers
Power: 400W 230VAC-24VDC converter inside the hull, fed from the surface by a insulation transformer trough the umbilical.
Umbilical: single cord double insulated 3*1,5^2
Control: on board arduino with ethernet shield connected trough an IPoP over the umbilical with a surface control arduino and/or laptop.
Camera: in-hull mounted IP camera for live images, outboard mounted 2x GoPro Hero 2 for recording.
Sensors: I2C temperature and humidity, roll, pitch, compass, outside pressure.
Wish list for the dash 1.1:
Converting to battery power, and replacing the the umbilical with a CAT-5 Ethernet cable.
Implement an auto pilot function in the hull-arduino, with control for heading and depth.
Upgrading the sensor array with a more accurate pressure sensor, leak detector, outside temperature gauge.
Replacing the screw cap on the aft with a more practical hatch (so the wires don't twist).
Using the new batteries for a auto-trim function: mount them sliding with a movement of around 15cm, controlled by a motor.
