My first ROV (steel) build to find possible shipwreck

Hi!

I have just started my first ROV project and would very much appreciate your knowledge and comments.

My goal is to identify a possible shipwreck at 50 ft depth. My aim is to build it with low cost in mind and three key features.

• Good quality live stream. At the moment my idea is a USB webcam (with repeater on cable) to my laptop for viewing and recording.
• Capable of 50 ft depth
• Theater length 100 ft

The picture is showing my progress so far.

Possible??

Hi Ramjet!

Thanks, this will probably be a slow build, but I will post my progress.

Looking forward to seeing yours.
