I am new to the community and I came to the topic through fishing. My child and me didn't catch any fish so there came up the idea of having a ROV to reach out for the best places to catch some fish. So I got into research and ended up here. Bought already the book and went through it which is very helpfull already. From the cylinders it shouldn't be a problem. I was about to go for the polycarbon tube but from the book I changed my opinion and will got for acrylic.
Inner parts and maybe the caps might be printed on my Creality K1C. To dive I will go for the piston setup since I think it should be the easiest way to build up.

I am mainly worried about the sealings because of the depth we want to go. And of course for the control which I would like to realize by WiFi, because long ROV-cables are expensive and we need a camera-feed to see the fish.

Did anyone build a ROV like that and has some tricks to share? We would appreciate a lot.
I am going to share the progress and maybe also open a youtube-channel therefore.]]> ROVs Remotely Operated Vehicles MakerDad82 https://forum.rc-sub.com/forum/rovs-remotely-operated-vehicles/195157-rov-for-fish-detection-5-20m
