  • This is the first video showcasing how I am building my DIY Underwater ROV. It focuses on the frame of the ROV, which is based on the basic frame designed by Seaperch.Org. Modifications to the SeaPerch frame include:
    - swapping the pool noodle floats for 14 inch long 1 inch PVC Pipes filled with air.
    - Swapping the elbows used along the bottom of the frame, at the front, with T junctions to allow more water to flow into the frame.
    Future videos will include how to modify 500GPH bilge pumps to work as thrusters, mounting the hardware to the frame and building a control box to pilot the ROV.
    This is my first attempt at building an ROV - I am sure modifications will continue with each new piece of hardware I add to the machine.
    Thanks to:

    - for providing the basic plan for the frame

      Hi Sohaib,
      The ROV Build is currently on hold - much of the water around my house is frozen over for the winter, which makes it hard to test the design. Basically the next step in the design is to use modified bilge pumps (cut the casings off and attach 3 prop propeller blades) as the motors, attach the fish finder camera and then run the wiring back to shore through a 50m tether. On land I plan on using 12volt batteries to power everything and will have a control box with three, 3 position, switches to operate the motors, a hook up for the video screen and any other hook- ups I might need. I would recommend you check out www.instructables.com/DIY-Submersible-ROV/ as this instructables page has some great information. Good luck with you project!
