The Albie 3 D Printed ROV

This is a 3D designed and printed ROV that uses basic equipment and the simplest control system I could come up with. Many current ROVs on the market have complex control systems requiring ethernet connectivity to get all the functions to run. This is much simpler, albeit less capable depending on what you are intending on doing with it. For swimming it around looking at the underwater world, this is sufficient, and fun RC Control Link: The control uses a basic RC transmitter and receiver (FrSky Taranis w, X8R receiver). The reason for this paining is that the X8R has S. BUS capability builtin, meaning that the receiver can pass up to 16 channels directly to the ROV using only a single signal wire and a ground wire. So 2 wires, 16 channels All without ethernet or other fanciness. What it does need is a S. BUS to PWM converter in the ROV to decode the signals to servo signals for the ESCs to use. That s a 15 part at Note: Any S. BUS tx, rx pair would do just fine. You c
