Hi guys, had the chance to test the beta version of the iBubble underwater drone.

Equiped with a gopro 4, it follows you underwater and you can choose different shooting scenarios from tour watch.

Specs: 1 hour dive, down 250ft, max distance from diver of 80ft.

will be around $2800 when lunched, pre orders are open and you can have one for less then $1800.

Many of my friends, owners of freedive school or diving schools have pre ordered one.

If you are interested you can MP me as I am in direct touch with the founders and the funding org.

This not a ROV... in an other word, iBubble looks like the DJI Phantom 4 underwater.

The prototype is a bit slow at the present time. The transmitter is still a bit "huge" but existing technology give a range of 15 miles... 90ft will be enough lOl.

Some options will be available like 2x1000 lumens led light add on, lights will offer an angle capability to avoid back-scattering, especially when shooting in saltwater

My best was 50 ft and I was 50 years old. Had to bring up some bottom even though my best friend and son were in the boat watching.

50 ft is a great achievement, congrats Sonny !!! You know the first 30ft are the most difficult, 30-60f are less and so on... Keep safe and enjoy :notworthy:
