dominicm Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Walking around the Southampton International Boat Show after filming some large RC powerboats in action and I stumbled across the trade stand for Swellpro. A manufacturer of multirotor aircraft/drone for the marine industry. Didn't know waterproof drones existed! They can take off and land on water and survive full immersion. Makes them suitable for many more applications that your typical drone. Dan of Swellpro UK gave me a quick intro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onetrack Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 With my style of luck, the instant I landed the drone on the water, a Great White would spring up out of nowhere, and take a massive bite out of it!! I can see where they would be good for shark-spotting around ocean swimming areas, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
