SWELLPRO SPLASH DROME 3 User manual

There are lots of drones out there that can do all sorts of things like fly around, take pictures
and video, or even lift a human. But how many can swim?
Swellpro is the world leader in waterproof drone technology. The drones are waterproof,
robust and can operate in nearly any environment.
100% Waterproof
Flying a drone over water can be risky as most drones are not waterproof or built for the
marine environment. With the Splash Drone 3, you can relax and enjoy your fishing.
Every part of Splash Drone 3 Fishing Edition is 100% waterproof and sea-water friendly.
Can't find a good place to launch the drone? Just take-off from the surface of the water.
Can't tell where the fish are from the above? Just land directly on the water and get a
submarine-view of the underwater world.
Harnessing a rugged 3mm ABS fuselage and waterproof, corrosion-resistant materials,
Splash Drone 3 is built to fish
Strong Waterproof Airframe and Motors
The Splash Drone 3 fuselage is made of durable 3mm reinforced ABS to ensure a perfect
waterproof seal. All external parts are corrosion resistant and designed for use in salt and
fresh water environments.
-Reinforced 3mm ABS Fuselage
-Floating design
-Corrosion-free materials throughout

-All weather use tested to MIL-STD 810 (rain and snow)
-Power and maneuverability to fly in winds and rain up to Beaufort Force 4 (18mph/28
kmh).
Gone Against the Wind
Gusty wind and torrential rain can be a real challenge for some drones near the coast. With
the waterproof Splash Drone 3, its robust 450mm ABS shell, high torque 620KV motors, and
full carbon fiber propellers provide the power and durability to fly in these harsh
environments. The new propulsion combo and flight controller provide tremendous
horsepower and control even in winds up to 18 mph (Beaufort Force 4). Reprogrammed
flight parameters provide phenomenal self-righting and altitude holding abilities, even when
the drone is burdened with additional weight.
Drone Fishing Made Easy
You don't need to be a dedicated pilot to fish successfully. We've simplified the use of
Splash Drone 3 Fishing Edition and discard all the complexity that doesn’t contribute much
to fishing. Every angler can fly like pro within a very short period of time.
Search and Rescue
Besides fishing, rescuers use the Splash drone to
find people stranded in the water and deliver
floatation devices to them with the payload
release.
Quick Set Up
Auto Hover
Auto Return
The release mechanism,
propellers and landing gears all
connect to the drone easily and
quickly to minimize setup time.
Attach your fishing line just
takes a second
Dual GPS and an array of
sensors enable Splash Drone 3
to automatically and precisely
hover at its current position and
altitude
Flick the return-home switch
and the Splash Drone 3 will
automatically return and land
gently at the take-off point -
while you concentrate on
fishing.

PRODUCT
FISHERMAN VERSION
The Fisherman version is perfect
if you are only interested in
recreational flying and fishing (or
life jacket release). It comes with
a more basic FPV and payload
release mechanism used
for delivery of life jackets or
bait (up to 1kg).
The camera of the fisherman
drone is FPV (first person
viewer). So it gives you real time
streaming of everything that the
drone sees on your remote
screen. It cannot take photos or
video however.
AUTO VERSION
The Auto version is for when you
are interested in filming and
taking photos (in air and under
water). The Auto version also
has the added functionality of
being integrated with the app,
giving the options of route
planning (with co-ordinates) and
"follow me". This version comes
out with an ULTRA HD camera
which is stabilized during flight
with a 2 axis gimbal.
