II . Product Overview
• Introduction
BW Space Pro is the world's first underwater shooting drone with zoom lens
and with 4K UHD fixed-focus camera, leading a new revolution in underwater
drone once again. With all merits of previous products, including hovering in the
water, one-click for a precise depth, directional straight shooting, auto-adjusting
intelligent lighting system, BW Space Pro is upgraded in underwater positions
and a new four-motor driven design, making it possible a vertical rise, diving, and
tilting upwards and downwards up to 45 degrees. It becomes more stable in motion
to get a clearer image and features in more stable signal transmission. The volume
of upgraded Pro is only 16 * 12 inch, whose tiny and compact body makes it easier
to carry and use. This makes ocean exploration and underwater entertainment a
fashionable lifestyle.

The functions of sealing lubricant：
1. Seal the drone tightly and enhance the waterproof
performance;
2. Act as a lubricant, making it easier to access the
plug and reduce the loss of the sealing ring;
If the sealing lubricant is not applied, the
waterproof depth may not be reached and the sealing
ring may be damaged.
The sealing ring is the spare part of the drone
connector. When the original sealing ring is damaged,
please replace it in time to maintain waterproof.

• Camera settings
Anti-shake: When this function is on, it can reduce the impact of motion that shakes
the screen. It is generally off at default.
Exposure: The brightness adjusted by the light-sensitive components. The exposure
index needs to be moderate, or the image would be brighter if the index is too high
and darker if too low. You can set the automatic gain or manually adjust the gain
value.
Image enhancement: Strengthen the detail features of images, improve the image
quality, and enrich the image information to meet the needs of special analysis.
It is generally off at default. When there is a large amount of water mist, it is
recommended to turn on the digital defogging function.
Noise reduction level: The function of noise reduction to reduce the degree of
screen noise from low to high intensity. The noise reduction level should be set
moderately because the higher of the noise reduction level would make the pictures
more blurred and the lower would generate noise to affect the screen preview.
Flip the screen left and right: The image will have left and right mirror changes.
Flip the screen up and down: The image will be ipped up and down.
Daylight anti-flash: The function of anti-strobe. Turn on to avoid the impact of
strobe caused by unconventional frequency of lights and light sources.
Infrared ltering: Support the detection of infrared light to meet the monitoring
needs of night vision scenes.
Day and night mode conversion: Support automatic switching of day and night
scenes. Usually in the daytime mode, the picture presents color without ll light; in
the night mode, the picture presents black and white and is lled by infrared light.
Recording resolution: Set the video resolution when recording.
Live video resolution: Set the real-time transmission resolution.
Bit rate: The number of data bits transmitted per unit time during video data
transmission. The higher the bit rate, the higher quality of the image.
The high bit rate may cause the lag of the screen. When the screen of real-time
stream lags, it is recommended to lower the bit rate appropriately.
Electronic slow shutter: Control the exposure duration to enable the camera to get
the proper exposure and capture the dynamic traces in darker scenes.
