    Fifish V6s Broken Claw

    Update, it WAS the cable very close to the plug. Let's see if Qysea can deliver a plug. Soldering will be very difficult, too small space.

    Fifish V6 expert Neutral buoyancy...

    Hi, Have you tested the ROV in water with the extra buoyancy material on? I'm qurious the learn if neutral buoyancy has any effect on the ROV's stability. Perhaps it's easier to control depth in "depth hold mode" if buoyancy deviates from neutral? Also, I have used two V6s ROVs and both sink. If...

    V6 Plastic disintegration

    Hi, This is my first post on this forum. I had some very bad issues with deteriorating plastic on my V6S. Since I still have a case with QYSEA I won't tell many details at this point. (They are very helpful, I have to add.) All I will say is: Don't Ever Use Loctite on Plastics!! At least not the...
