Nice vapor smoothed parts. At what depth will your bouyancy system work? I been doing calculations for building oen to 100 meters and the pressure is absolutely prohibitive
Neat project! Great integration effort, and beautiful pitch and roll system, looks novel! But I wonder if this design is a complete dead end,. There is so much 'dry' space in the motor area, I think we both know there's no way this design, fundamentally, could ever achieve a worthwhile glide depth (which is the whole point of these things...)I doubt it could even do 10 atm, so isn't this all show? It's like an impossible, but cool, airplane design that just drives around the runway?
The buoyancy engine is the only way an underwater glider would work, so I had a look at commercial underwater gliders and they typically use an oil bladder (they pump oil from an internal to external bladder to decrease overall density and vice versa) or syringes for their engines. A syringe system is easier and there are a couple of designs out there (mainly a servo on the end of a modified syringe), so I tried my best to iterate upon this and build a complete system.
For friendships sake, get rid of the background music! Is this the teletubby theme? Other than that i'm really interested and hope your project will move along.
The music comment is noted for future videos :) (I wanted some kind of background noise and was short on time so couldn't find anything better). Although I've been able to put minimal time into the glider over the last couple of months, I hope that I'm able to make some good progress with the project in the near future.
Well done! Very cool!
How much more distance can a glider sail than a boat of the same weight on the same battery charge?
G'day are you still working on another version? Been looking into making one in the future.

What's the depth limit on those syringes? Do they wear out and start to leak?
Nice!
Awesome
Brilliant
Awesome project!
Any progress on the ardupilot side of things or no?

Budget du projet svp?

How did you get the idea to use a buoyant motor?

@@alexwilliams8878 other than a propeller bruh...
@@michaelgimbel4418 It's much much much more efficient than a prop

Agreed, you can find better free background music on bensound.com
