How does the underwater drone work
The FiFish E-GO is a new model of an underwater robot from Qysea, a company that specializes in developing and manufacturing underwater robots. The E-GO is the latest addition to the FiFish series, which includes the P3, the V6, and the V6 Expert.
The E-GO stands out from the other FiFish models by having a modular design that allows you to quickly remove and reinstall its thrusters, camera, lights and batteries.This feature makes the E-GO more convenient to use, as you can easily swap out parts for upgrades, repairs, or different purposes. It also makes the E-GO more compact and portable, as it can be packed down much smaller than other underwater drones.

The underwater drone by the numbers
The FiFish E-GO has a streamlined aluminum body that can withstand high pressure and corrosion. It has six electric thrusters that provide 360-degree omnidirectional movement and a top speed of 3 knots (3.5 mph). It can dive to 100 meters (328 feet) or 200 meters (656 feet) with an upgrade.
The E-GO has a 4K/30fps camera with a new wide-angle lens that can capture stunning underwater images and videos.
It also has four LED spotlights that produce 10,000 lumens of brightness, making it suitable for low-light conditions. The camera can focus down to a distance of 10 cm (3.9 inches), allowing you to see the details of small objects or creatures.
