its a color fishing camera that I bought off ebay. $75.00 bucks. The camera was yellow but I painted it white.

Looks great what brand of bilge pumps did you use and how well do they work?

[soulreaper]

Seachoice 600 ghp. They work fine, I have no complaints. On the surface it seems to move a little slow but underwater it seems fast.

Great work there! Especially the video of the bass. I am in the how am I going to do this stage - Frame is built, bilge pumps are in place. Next up is the controls - it's a work in progress.

Thanks Captbill. I know all about the work in progress faze. I got through that faze by working on one part at a time. Sometimes it was slow going, but I made it and you will also. Please post pictures of rov on the forum.

If all goes well I will be posting another video in the MISSION FOOTAGE section, on 6.4.11 This time I will be in my raft in the middle of the lake. I will be using a cheap fish finder to get an accurate depth reading and I will be trying out Virtual video glasses to see what the rov is seeing. Its kinda hard to see the video in the computer screen in the daylight. So far I have been using a towel over my head to block the light out.
