SwellPro Waterproof SPLASH DRONE 3 Review - Part 2 Flight Test - Ocean Proof?

[@roushstge2]

I feel like the flip over would be easy to fix for SwellPro. All they need to do is program it to put full power to either the front 2 props or rear 2 props to essentially pull the side under and flip it back over. Sounds plausible in theory.

[@DustinDunnill]

They improved it on the latest 3+ version 🍻

You are so lucky I've always wanted to live there I am an automotive mechanic and to stop corrosion also FYI I used to be a technician on boats in saltwater in Tacoma Washington if you use a little dielectric grease on all of your external electric connections it is designed to keep them from corroding and it will also aid to the waterproofing in place and it will not harm anything love your videos keep it up

[@WickedTooners]

Great review Dustin! I don't own an aerial drone yet and I've been researching drones for the past 4 weeks watching videos (probably at least 100 videos) to determine what features I want, cost factors, and spare parts availability. Your video review is one of the best I seen so far. I look forward to future reviews from you on the SwellPro. Keep up the good work!

[@AllenBrooks]

Mike Michels keep in mind there's two sides to every coin and that there are aerial quadcopters in racing quadcopters for multi rotors if you want to use layman terms lol. Deciding what you want to do and what kind of experience you want will allow you to pick the right quad for you to fly FYI. Dustin does great reviews through a mixed selection with quads.

[@DustinDunnill]

+Mike Michels Thanks Mike! Glad you enjoy. Definitely hone your choice down to what features you want in one. Then see what's available for your needs 👍

[@aguswahyuwigenaatmaja5116]

Great review mate , now I know which one I want to buy .cheers

[@mirozen_]

I've not read all the comments below so maybe this has already been brought up, but it seems like spinning the propellers on one side would "flip" the drone back upright when it is floating in the water. This could be programmed into the drone by the manufacturer as an option that you could execute at need. If they added that functionality it would make this drone even more attractive imo.

[@fielding68]

You must admit you asked for that "Flip" but iv'e got to admire your bottle for doing it. Great tutorial. Thank you.

[@joelstanhope7231]

His trouble with rollover may be the fact he changed antenna location which are factory mounted on the bottom and he changed that

[@funnyyylock]

Joel Stanhope no

[@caseyj6298]

Exactly what I am thinking! The antennas were strategically put on the bottom, just for this type of situation. I cant fault the Drone company, not until I see it fail to upright itself, with the antennas in the factory positions, on bottom.

[@rustycanadian]

Hello Dustin, I know it's been 11 months since you did this test but it seems to me that if the gimble mount was 2 inches longer dropping the camera down another 2 inches, the center of gravity in water would change and automatically flip the drone over.

[@Hdmi1409]

[@upperechelon3456]

Great Video Dustin [as usual]. I have been an avid RCer [planes] since 1970 and currently have a pretty decent collection of drones. Actually this isn't a bad idea. A water proof platform takes tremendous worry from any one who regularly flies over water and engages in water sports. It can offer a viable concept for fishing particularly when your going for fish in hard to reach estuaries or along salt water marshes and other hard to cast places. We fish for Red and Black drum of the coast of north east Florida and I can tell you one thing - casting from shore can be a bitch due to the total weight of the lead, hooks [2 aught] and bait [huge chunks of crab]. Its a mute issue if you use a boat,of course, but that's an additional hassle [even if you own one]. With this set up precision casting can be a breeze - not to mention enjoying two past times at once. As far as the price - I think it could be a little lower [who wouldn't] but considering it is a truly waterproof drone it may well be worth the price. Again great video Cheers.

​@@HuyLe-ur5twif you have to ask this question you cannot afford it

[@Infamousfpv1]

In regards to it getting stuck in the upside down position. Maybe they could add a small "forward propelling" motor in between the middle of the rear arms? When you flip it, you hit a switch and it flips it back over.

[@DustinDunnill]

+Infamous2117 that's an idea but I think just letting it arm for a few seconds upside down would do it.

[@Infamousfpv1]

Dustin Dunnill Do you mean reverse propulsion on just one arm? If so, definitely a more efficient way of doing it. Maybe let the manufacturer know? If anyone had there ear, its you bro.

[@Infamousfpv1]

[@OceanImaging]

We took this drone to Greenland and have just released a full review of this drone in a 7 minute video on our channel. We really wanted this drone to be a success story because it promised everything we wanted in a drone. Stable 4K filming and waterproof. While the thought of a waterproof does sound very appealing, this product really performed poorly. While being waterproof is a great feature, it’s completely undermined by inconsistent performance and poor image quality.

[@snerttt]

Yeah that image was horrific

[@MrCarmelo1980]

Awesome... I am now a “drone freak”.. cannot get enough of them.... especially the small fpv drones..... thanks for sharing....

Great video Dustin. Despite the flipping and self righting issues I think its a definite improvement over the splash 2. Will definitely be adding this one to my wish list. Cheers Florida USA

[@DustinDunnill]

+Jason Jackson i was really amazed how solid the Alt hold was in this one especially since it's Waterproof and only using an air pressure sensor / barometer. 👍

[@Swellpro]

Hi Jason the flipping issue is not a drawback actually. we set this by purpose so that the drone won't take off and crash if the body is not a flat platform. anyway, we will find a way to improve this.

[@frankiesun09]

At 21.42 you can see that the top cover bolts were loose and probably got water damage internally, that's why is was malfunctioning and not flipping back right side up.

[@DustinDunnill]

It was lifted because I had opened it to check on it after retrieving it from the water. I am sure I always tighten things up before any water testing.

[@CharlesTLam]

Good review, thanks. I was really thinking of getting one but the 2 major cons, the flipping piece is a major con for me as in the event it goes down far out in the water, your screwed..The gimbal is not all that great, still some shaking and vibration in the video...If I’m filming it has to be smooth but for what it is , I love the Splash drone, maybe next generation..I’l wait..

[@stejo73]

I believe that mode has now been removed in the Spry+ and it seems much more stable from footage I've seen

[@DustinDunnill]

The SD 3+ has a better "upright" flipping mode. Ultimately would be awesome if it flipped in water and lost connection and fail-safes to RTH mode it would auto upright and fly home 👍

Hi Dustin, first time viewer here. I watched this entire vid. Was blown away by your narration. Love your passion for flying. I've never even heard of this drone until now ! Was seriously impressed with this. My initial thought was that this thing isn't cheap. Absouluty loved the scenery. You are definitely living the dream. How long have you lived in Hawaii ? I've never been there till now :) Incredible !!! My 3 year dream has been to own the Mavic Pro. I've never graduated from the toy grade quads. I have the XS809HW. Not bad for toy grade.

[@alb.dersame]

@@DustinDunnill thank you. Happy flying ..

[@joelmartinez4822]

I believe the antenna or signal receiver is at the top of the drone for better reception with satellites and under the water there’s no signal that’s way under water drones need to be connected to with the remote so you can still control it. That’s the best explanation I can think of. Nice video I like it. Thank you.

[@1JBTheGiant]

When you say you taped the FPV & Controls wire to the top of the arms, did you remove the wire from being down in the nipples? Or did you leave them down there, but tape the excess to the top of the arms? I just got my SplashDrone 3 and the wire that is down in the nipple seems to be pretty snug in there and I don’t want to damage anything trying to remove it lol

[@DustinDunnill]

I pulled it up and out. The end is for the signal.

[@chuckmorton5730]

I suspect that your control signal gets damped when the antenna is moved from the nipples to the arms. Radio waves don't go well underwater. You stated on the SD 2 that the antennas were in the nipples so they would be out of the water when upside down and therefore get a better signal reception. By the way on a pool float test I dropped my SD 3 during recovery , it landed upside down and it self righted without me doing anything. I have not retested that so it may have been a one off event. I moved my video antenna up into the arm because I lost FPV when in the water when it was in the nipple.

Keeping it on the bottom just looses signal when landing in water. At least in the arm allows a 50/50 chance for reconnect

As usual Dustin an excellent review. Was thinking, maybe the added buoyancy of the Go Pro waterproof case in the SD2 raised it slightly higher in the water, enabling the flip over method, to upright it. Possible solution add some extra buoyancy under the SD3. Did you manage to override the 500 meter limit. I assume that in Atti one does not have the limitation, its only in GPS mode. Or am I wrong.

Make sure no water or residue is inside, put a few silica packs inside and seal cover lightly to store, storage batteries to ~50% power until next use 👍

This was a fun video. I miss Hawaii now.

Wow It good

[@darrellclark9596]

is it possible the relocating of the antennas may have effected the righting and return home? was she "geo fenced" at 500 m? 33.05 its a ray of some kind.( sting or Manta)....great video

[@DroneOn]

Chicks love this drone. Literally. Lol. Great part 2! Like everything but not the Geo Fencing range limitations by default.

[@DustinDunnill]

+Drone On yes, the chicks were all over this one..lol. I'm going to take off the range limit and do a range test 👍

[@lukewatkins9559]

How do you take off the Geo Fencing?

[@DustinDunnill]

+Luke Watkins you can remove it with the sd3 assist software when connected to computer

What a great quad for those of us that live near the ocean. Is it just me or did the horizon look skew all the time?

[@DustinDunnill]

+Wes Ness It does get skewed and that's why they give the ability to adjust gimbal roll by pilot as seen and mentioned in video...alot 😉
