Homebuilt ROVs Forum

If it's too big for this site, email it to yourself first. That'll reduce the size. That's what I had to do.

Thanks.

Sorry, I still haven't had a chance to test the floats yet.... It's been a busy year for me and I haven't had time to work on many of my Rov projects :( I will update the forum as soon as I get around to it though. -Steve 8-) Did you ever get a chance to test the floats? It's tether time for me and...

Camera's done.

Finally got the manipulator mounted.

Got a new toy.

It usually looks like this. I'm kink of obsessive-compulsive when it comes to my work spaces. I like everything in it's proper place.
Plus, i'm married, so i kinda have to keap it clean. Or else!!

I'm building one, Retro-Retrofit Seafox, and i'm planing on using it off of wharfs and docks on Burrard Inlet and False Creek.
What's the geiger counter for?

It depends on your components. The Rule bilge pumps/thrusters might start slowing down at that depth. Too much preasure pressing the shaft seal against the shaft. Check out other peoples thrusters and camera housings. There's everything from basic to professional.

Very nice! Do you have any pictures of the actual unit? I'd love to see them.
