Homebuilt ROVs Forum

I am going to be starting a project in the next few weeks. Not totally sure exactly what design I want to base it on though. I have looked at several models and I have kind of swung towards the Sea Fox. Is that a good design or are there simpler designs that are just as, or more, functional? Eventually this ROV would be going down as far as 150 - 200 feet, if that's not too much of a stretch.

Ideally I would like to equip my ROV with a manipulator and some other gear that will be used for monitoring the impact of pollution on our local lakes and other water ways.

Any advice would be great.

Thanks,

Steve
