Homebuilt ROVs Forum

Hello from Indonesia. From what I have seen so far this is one of the most informative ROV sites and I look forward to reading the comments of fellow posters and contributing as well. Diver Don.

Welcome. Looking forward to seeing your project.

Hello Ian, thank you for your kind words. I am working on the design and development of manned Wet Submersibles here in Indonesia. These are RIB craft with lengths of 7.5 to 9.5 meters and can submerge to 20 meters.

We also use pvc ROV frames for testing and evalulation of electronics and other items although the Thrusters and Battery Banks we use are much larger. Our Thrusters are 8v 5kw operating from a 48v 2,200 ampH Lithium batteries.

You can see an artists impression of a typical craft.
