UUV
Hello fellow nerds. This is my UUV project, the design is pretty basic this was a no brainer to build in CAD and build in real life. Unlike a ROV It’s life isn't easily saved by pulling on a tether but rather how well the code is that I write for it. Here are some pictures of the build. I will go into more depth later on once the electronics tray is finished.

Re: UUV
Quick update, electronics tray finished working on mounting the electronics and building out the PCB boards. Next mile stone is building the battery pack out of 18650’s.

Re: UUV
I don't know what I'll do with it yet. Trying to figure out a few things with 3d sonar. Coding is going to be the worst thing for this.

Re: UUV
UUV is coming along nicely. Still haven't gotten to playing with programming it yet I’d like to have everything physically built before that. I have been working on converting a fish finder into an altimeter.

Re: UUV
Good afternoon.
You can put some specific link on this "Nerd response level-EPIC", I only find video games.
Thank you for a greeting

Re: UUV
I have little updates now. So far I have loaded ROS (robot operating system) on the RPI and have been slowly building the battery pack out of 18650’s. I designed a mast to put the GPS and wifi antenna and 3D printed a mold, however when I cast the mast in epoxy it failed (a lot of lessons learned there!). I have came across a few design flaws that need to be worked out that will be accounted for in the next UUV I build which I have already designed and parts sitting on the shelf. Next UUV will have contra-rotating props, the whole body will be fiberglass/ carbon fiber, and use lead acid 24 volt batteries.

Re: UUV
Hi! some guys and I are designing a drone with a very similar shape to the one you created. Why do you say you want to use carbon fiber? What advantages would you have? Ours is 2 meters long and 0.4 meters in diameter. Do you think it is better in steel or carbon fiber?
