Making the Tether
Posted: Jul 31st, 2017, 7:57 pm
Hey,
For school I am making a ROV, and was hoping to get some advice on the tether. I'm using a Ethernet cable to connect two RPi together for my camera, and will have another Cat5 cable to control my motors, lights, etc. i will also have power cables as my battery is on the surface. I would like to have the tether approx 15m if possible. What im wondering, is there a way to keep there 3 cables together, something like braided hollow rope? also would it be possible to disconnect at the remote and ROV for easy transportation?
Thanks
