QYSEA FIFISH PRO W6 Ultimate Underwater Drone User Manual

QYSEA FIFISH PRO W6 Ultimate Underwater Drone

Introduction

The FIFISH PRO W6 is an ROV (Remote Operated Vehicle) for underwater operations. 6 vector thrusters™ optimize the maneuverability and speed at the same time. 350 m (over 1100 ft) depth rating covers 95% of underwater operation fields. 2nd gen Q-motor Pro has higher output and energy efficiency. The Aluminum Alloy propeller is coated with a catto withstand the harsh conditions. The top speed is 2 m/s (4 knots), capable of going against the current. The dual camera system provides a larger FOV, and the 4K UHD camera produce high resolution image and videos. A high-capacity lithium battery means longer operation time, and a swappable design keeps underwater operation running all the time.

The standard laser scaler makes underwater measurement and inspection easier than ever. FIFISH W6’s new Q-BOX can expand the interface, support fast switch and add-ons. Extensible accessories include on-shore power supply, collision avoidance system sonar, DVL, Image Sonar, USBL ultra-short base positioning, U-QPS (underwater quick positioning system), metal thickness gauge, Q-camer, 3-claws robotic arm, rescue clamp, mud sampler, compass ruler clamp, water sampler, salinity sensor, pH sensor, dissolved oxygen sensor, hydrophone, etc. Such a wide variety of accessories can fulfill any kind of application field.

Safety Instructions

• Do NOT touch the running propeller.
• Avoid overheating of motors; do NOT run the thrusters in air for over 30 seconds.
• Do NOT throw the ROV when deploying into the water
• Do NOT look directlyato the LEDs, and do NOT touch the LEDs when they are ON
• Laser Radiation Class 3B. Avoid direct exposure to the eyes.
• Beware of the environment while operating the ROV (tide, water level, water traffic, etc.)
• Be part of marine protection and conservation for the local coral and marine li.fe
• Avoid the reefs, rocks, seaweeds, fishline, or other objects that may cause damage to or entanglement of the ROV or tether.

• Holding ONLY on the stainless-steel handle
• Do NOT pull the tether between the en and the connector and the safety lock.
• Do NOT ONLY hold on to the thrusters
• Do NOT pull the battery plug cables
• Do NOT pull the battery plugs
• Holding on to the battery handle when swap battery

Definition of Controlling

The FIFISH PRO W6 uses the patented Smart Thruster Array™ to ensure the ultimate maneuverability and delivers
the 6 DOF (degree of freedom).

• W6 can move in descent & ascent, left and right, forward and backward.
• W6 can rotate in 360 yaw (z-axis), 360 pitch (y-axis), and 360 roll (x-axis).

We have simplified the Left Joystick, Right Joystick, Left Wheel, and Right Wheel into the following symbol. The arrows on RC indicate the command,d and the arrows on ROV indicate the actual movements. For more information, please check the FIFISH App, Go Dive/General Settings/Second Column.

Introduction to Controlling

Controlling Modes

FIFISH PRO V6 PLUS supports 3 modes for control: A, S, and C. A is Attitude Auto mode, S is Sport mode, and C is the Combination mode.

1. Attitude Mode Attitude mode is designed for beginners. The ROV will not roll in Attitude mode.
2. Sport Mode Sport mode is designed for skillful pilots.
3. Sport mode will enable the rolling freedom, so you will access all 6 degrees of freedom of V6 PLUS.
4. Controlling and moving based on the FPV (First Person View), do not operate in third-person view.
5. The ROV will only stay in the same depth with no command input when depth holding Ois N.
6. Combination mode delivers the intuitive control an immersiveexperiences.
7. Combination mode supports head tracking and the remote controller working together.
8. Robotic Arm: The robotic arm can be activated ONLY in Attitude mode. Use the right wheel to open and close the robotic claws.

ROV Charging

Pull out the battery and charge it separately. The red LED indicator illuminates while charging, and the green LED indicator illuminates while fully charged.
