The HyDrone™ RCV is a portable, remote control survey boat platform, packed in its own rugged case. Working in conjunction with the HydroLite-TM portable echosounder kit, the HyDrone RCV can conduct bathymetric surveys in ponds, lakes, rivers, and streams, and accomplishes the same results as much more expensive RC survey systems. The system is easily disassembled for transport and shipping and has a wide profile to avoid tipping, and watertight construction. HyDrone™ is rugged, lightweight, and manufactured from high quality marine components. Work environments include mines, sewage treatment plants, contaminated lakes, harbors, and rivers.
