Introduction
About Navatics MITO
Navatics MITO is an underwater vehicle that can be used to explore depths. It uses four highly
efficient thrusters to stabilize and maneuver itself underwater. It captures 4K videos and 12
megapixel photos, and is capable of carrying extra payload without deterioration in
performance.
MITO boasts 4 knots (2 m/s) maximum speed. The battery, designed to be replaceable, runs
for 2 hours when fully charged. The wireless communication buoy comes with 4 hours
runtime, equipped with solar panel to extend usage duration.
System features
Best built in active stabilization system
Powerful thrusters tilt, hover and stabilize Navatics MITO even in heavy
currents to capture the exact footage you want.
45° Adjustable tilt lock
Adjustable tilt lock from -45 ° to 45 ° enables it to capture a stunning shot
while moving forward or backward.
Control wirelessly up to 500M
The custom-designed remote controls Navatics MITO uses radio frequency. It
connects your smartphone to a wireless transmission system in a waterproof
buoy with a range up to 500 m /1640 ft.
Vivid color, 4K recording and 1080p HD streaming
Navatics MITO shoots at 4K 30 frames per second and captures 12MP stills. It
also offers 1080p streaming to the Navatics app, which features built-in tools
for color correction and let you share your underwater moments directly on
social media.

Two bright 1000 lumen LED lights illuminate a clear path for Navatics MITO
as it navigates, ensuring you to see where you’re going and what footage
you’re capturing.

Preparing for Dive
Evaluating Conditions and Safety
Do your first few dives in line of sight in calm waters to get accustomed to the controls
and the behavior of the vehicle.
Recommended conditions
Avoid
Reefs, rocks, seaweeds or other objects may cause crash or entanglement
Water traffic or crowded areas, including but not limited to beaches, diving sites, operating
fields etc.
Attention
In areas with lots of electromagnetic interference you may experience lag or artefacts in the
video stream. Electromagnetic interference may be caused by large steel or concrete
structures or areas with lots of other WiFi activity. To resolve this you can try to move closer to
the surface unit or move to another location.
Dive down to 40 m
The drone can handle
rain and snowy weather
Dive in open water

15
Preparing for Dive
Warning
Do NOT look directly
the LED light
Do NOT touch the
propellers when powered
Do NOT dive when
current speed is greater
than 1.2m/s
Do NOT put wireless
communication buoy
into water when wave is
higher 0.5m
Do NOT use MITO when
visibility is under 1m
Do NOT let the thruster
rotating in air
