ROV Nudibranch dive with new end cap - 11m and 6m deep
Posted: Mar 20th, 2019, 5:33 am
Here is my latest footage taken today.
The redesigned end cap and thru hull connections worked great and there was very little noise in the camera feed (haven't fitted baluns yet) and control of the ROV was good. I still had issues getting smooth control of the ROV and this is part due to my design, the props I'm using and also there was a current which kept the tether tight and limited the ROV movement. I had trouble working out where the ROV was in relation to the boat to drive into the current and keep the line a bit slack. All in all it was good, clear water and lots of fish.
