Seeing as how the detector is really underpowered. I wonder if you could just cut up a good detector, and then print a new mount that fits the drone and run extra power with the tether cable. I also thought about just printing a scoop that sits 3 inches under the detector head. Basically a cat litter scooper. You could even fit a mini vacuum/blower to move the silt around.
I like that! I'm going to be trying a bunch of ideas in future videos. I'll keep those in the roster of possibilities. thanks for supporting our channel check out our builds channel for all the technical stuff. www.youtube.com/@Thetinkanatorbuilds
It’s gonna be fun:) I’m going to be posting all the build videos on thetinkanator builds channel so if you’re into the creative process go to @thetinkanatorbuilds and subscribe there! Thanks for supporting the channel, your highly anticipated
I attached a hand held one to the claw to locate A phone that was buried by owner trying to blindly recover it ifound it but had to take off the detector and go back and recover the phone with the claw I'm going to make a quick release system and a bracket that allows the claw to still open and close I need to get my own channel going then you can see what I find here in UK look forward to seeing your next video jay
Bro you remind me of eggman now that you trimmed your beard😂. Positively magnificent mustache man! Also I wish the drone was just a little bigger, it'd be way better if you could run the claw at the same time as the detector.
Thanks my friend:) dr robotinic is who started all this🤣🤣🤣 also that would be pretty sweet to be able to use the claw and detector:) I totally agree. We are going to start trying things
25:28 I guess its because saltwater is a conducter and detectors with a single frequency dont like salt water at all, you would need a detector shooting multifrequencies + having some software filters to get rid of the false signals , for example my XP Deus 2 is fully capable of searching in salt water but its fairly pricy and i dont even know if there is a small detector that can deal with saltwater or high mineral sand that could be attached to the Evo :P
@Thetinkanator was a great video nonetheless, love your rov content my friend 😁👍 My rov is collecting a little bit of dust at the moment, I got addicted to diving myself, gonna do a test dive tomorrow with my new semi dry winter suit , let's see if it will keep dry and warm enough to dig out some goodies underwater 😛
You should try with nokta pulse dive 8inch coil. It is much better underwater detector and cover more, also it is a lot deeper than that chinese pi detector
Imagine what you can find with that thing. I mean someone many years ago must have lost something that they were willing to die for and now you have the chance to uncover it. Pretty cool if I do say so myself.
Fun 'partial' addition and good first step but did u shop around to see if they sell one with a scoop or grabber arm! Maybe u can design a scooper!
This is actually the only underwater drone metal detector available at all as far as I could find. I think custom attachments will be the key

@Thetinkanator no worries brotha. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
it is possible to attach other handheld detectors, im doing so myself. didnt find a working way to get the stuff out of the sand though

Ya that’s what I was thinking as well. I figured either way it would make a good video:) and now it gives me something to experiment with

thanks:) I'm always super grateful for your support and kind words. keep up the good fun my friend!
How about a clear plastic scoop with holes in it or a type of clear fork mounted on top of the arm
I have a resin 3d printer, I might just print something up
Improvement the green/red led should be up at the stick so you can run the plate in the mud. Your range is possible more restricted in water.
Maybe I could put a fiber optic on it
Let me know how that works for you. I’m very curious
Name the machines !!!!!
Do you have any suggestions?

I’ll check into it:) thanks for the feedback
I'm just going to use a strong magnet if my M2 S get too me one day. ;-)
I’m curious to know how that works for you
okay, so if you do locate something, how do you retrieve it? ROV has no claw!
We’re working on some modifications as we speak;)

The possibilities are truly endless!
