- How to fish with the water resistant Splashdrone FD1 fishing drone. Drone fishing techniques with Kaleb in 15 - 20 knots or more of offshore wind. This video is instructional and shows all the "How to fish with a drone" techniques if you are considering getting in to drone fishing but are unsure how easy it is. Calibrating the SwellPro FD1 is incredibly easy, especially when compared to the older generation Splashdrone 3, 3+, and earlier models. Kaleb shows how to calibrate the drone, and how the mechanical release works.
The SwellPro Splashdrone FD1 has a max payload of 2kg, max casting distance of 1600m, and comes with your choice of either tension release, or mechanical release as shown in this video. The mechanical release also has the option of a live feed camera so you can see where you are dropping your baits. The new battery allows up to a massive 26 minutes of flight time.
On these #drones we are taking out 6 hooks, using the #Daiwa Tanacom electric reel and #Penn Spinfisher VI 10500 to haul in the line and fish. Whole piper, trevally, and soft plastic baits were used to catch snapper and gurnard, using PFS Target Snapper hooks.
Our fishing adventures take us throughout #Aotearoa fishing, so keep an eye on our channel for more #landbased #fishingvideos using #kites, electric #kontiki torpedos, and drones including the AEE Condor, #Splashdrone4 , #Swellpro #FD1 , and #Rippton #Mobula #quadcopter fishing drones.

The SwellPro #FD1 #Drone #Fishing setup is one of the easiest fishing rigs to use, and is ideal for anyone wanting to catch fish with a drone, from beginners who have never flown a drone, through to those who have experience but want a water resistant #fishingdrone.
The #Splashdrone 4 (and older models) and SwellPro Fisherman Drone (FD1) are water resistant, which means they will resist the entry of water to an IPX4 level. For technical reasons, some parts of the drone are designed to be not completely sealed or completely watertight, so the drone should not be submerged under water. If the Splashdrone comes in contact with saltwater, the user is advised to wash any saltwater off with fresh water. Always follow all documentation and instruction manuals that come with the drone.

Ide cemerlang memancing dengan dron..
👍👍
Haha.. I see some of my Vector buddies in the background, working hard as usual except the one parked behind you. Lol. Seriously looking at purchasing one of those soon.
Iv been using the splash drone 2 for a few years fishing but also for stringing fibre optic cables
I have been using a Splashdrone 2 for 4-5 years and it is still going fine. Enjoyed your video, showed how drone fishing is fishing but with fun added. A couple of tips though. You should hit the bait release before engaging the reel as unlike your other drone which would just pull free the Splashdrone won't and it just gets pulled up with an unnecessary jerk. (I had a leg fall off from that jerk once at the beginning as the drone reared up and caught the line on the leg then pulled it out as the drone righted itself.) The other thing is instead of having a loop to go onto the bait release I tie a small aluminum carabiner there so all I have to do is lift the drone and snap it on. I am usually on my own so it saves having to open and close the release to attach your bait rig. I did wonder how successful that calibration had been as the drone looked pretty unstable when it returned to land. This generation of Splashdrone are reputed to be more stable than my old one but I would be alarmed if mine was dancing around like that. Even in a bit of wind. I love the look of that big battery though!
Kaleb is used to the Condor release which works on tension. Good thinking with the carabiner, thanks for the comment
Good work Caleb 5 stars
I have got to say this drone was some serious fun to use!
How much for that whole set up brother kz
sending support my frend thank you for share
Awesome nice video
NICE DRONE 😍😍😍
That is my first fishing drone I have..First flight out ,birds flew into line while launching out around 400m 😂. Was bit windy yesterday , so only did one set .
😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
That battery change is a pain in the ass for sure. The FD3 is the way to go and with dual release
No comments but just ♡❤❤
Hi there, loving the videos just one question I have a Splashdrone FD1 but I'm just wondering how you re correct the drone if it lands upside down in the water if you can tell me or if you can make a video the would be awesome as can't find any video on UA-cam that tell you how to do it. cheers 👍
hold both joysticks down and to the outside (opposite of priming motors) is called the" power Flip" it will rite side up the drone--- then you take off normally
Was you fishing off of the Kaiaua rd bro ??
Make sure you wash it down with fresh water plenty in those motors after use I carry a bottle of water for motors to slow down rusting process Caleb
Thanks Joey, we either do that or use Splashdrone Spray Cleaner, or both.
You only done one of the calibrations out of the 3 required according to the book are the other 2 required? Daily. And apparently you have to turn drone off inbetween each of the calibrations. But I've tried both ways and it seems to still work. I also done calibration by swinging the drone around like the aee and that still worked also.
Other two calibrations are only needed if it’s brand new (this one had been set up as a demo prior), or if it’s been crashed, or more than 100km away from where it was last calibrated, or isn’t flying as it should. The remote will also tell you if the compass or gyroscope needs to be calibrated. See instructions swellpro.com/uploadfiles/files/2d/2df6befc87-swellpro-fisherman-user-guide-v10.pdf
@@paulsfishingsystems sweet that's good to know it's my first drone and the instructions weren't very clear but had the drone out today and it preformed awesomely!!
Just watched the video of the splash drone 4 and seen it was tested upside down in the water and still able to take off from that position. Can the fd1 do the same from that position? Looking at purchasing a fd1 as my first drone.
Yes it can, automatic power flip function
Tengo swellpro splash drone 3+ plus dañado maleta control están nuevos y batería extra nueva
I have no problem getting 20 satilittes here in australia with sad3 plus just wish the fish were better
Hey Brother, when you flick return to home , does it land by itself when it is already at home or you still control to land it? Thanks bro.
It lands by itself. Once you flick that home switch, its all automatic
I am keen on this. But looking at description on your website, it says that some parts are not water resistant. But this video shows that the drone was thrown in salt water. Bit confused. Please kindly clarify as I would like to purchase this in Auckland. Thanks
Salt water is not good for electronics in general. These are rated water resistant, meaning if they happen to end up in the water they’ll be ok after a rinse with fresh water, which we always recommend if your drone goes in the sea. This was purely testing, and the drone suffered no issues but was rinsed with fresh water
Great info, I have purchased a FD1 for fishing, however I have only been able to calibrate it and the fly about 20 yards before the "Battery Low" indicator came on and the battery won't charge. Have been attempting to correct this issue with the company for over 2 weeks, to no avail. Buy at your own risk.
Thanks Charles, unfortunately SwellPro aren’t the best to deal with from what we’ve heard and learnt. Best we’ve come across for ease of use and service is the AEE Condor
What is the gap between crimps ? and how high can this drone fly ?
We have a run of 2m between traces, and 40cm run for the traces. Legal limit in NZ is 400ft
Curious to know which drone do you prefer to use?
Out of the Condor, Rippton, FD1, and SD4? Hard to say as they all have great features. The Condor is the least stressful (always a risk when fishing) being the cheapest, but the FD1 is still relatively cheap and is an awesome drone. I like the FD1 with tension release, safer method of deploying, same as the Condor has. Give us a call to discuss your needs
Do you use camera
Where or on what do you see the live camera view?
There is a set of goggles that are included, they also attach to the remote
Realmente lo ase ami se me cayo a 500 yardas dentro del mar y lo lebante como si no ubier apasado nada y eso que la solas del mar estan fuertes
Cool set up but what a pain to change the battery all the time. I just watched the splash pro 4 insert the battery was a way better idea
Definitely easier on the SD4, but for the difference in price the extra ease isn’t worth it for many who are only using it for fishing.
What’s the biggest bait I can fly with a 12 ounce led ??
12oz = 340g. Max payload is 2000g, so biggest bait would be 1660g
were order this drone frend
www.fishingtacklesale.co.nz/category/swellpro-splashdrone-spry-drones
Can this record videos and take pictures?
Yes it can
@@paulsfishingsystems nice!! How’s the video quality? Do you recommend this one or the spry+? Will be using this for livebait fishing
The SPRY has a 4K camera but only 300g payload. The FD1 has a 2kg payload but only has an HD camera
How many casts/drops did you get with one battery bro?
I did 4 sets at 250m yesterday with still battery left for another set aswell
We did 4 sets to 500m - 700m and still had battery left
@@paulsfishingsystems That is good. I had a look at the splash drone 4. Very expensive compared to the FD1. Is it standard or long life battery? How long does the battery charge? What’s your recommendation for dropping full pilchards?
@@Max-um6oj yea we see the FD1 being far more popular than the Splashdrone 4 because of the difference in price, FD1 has the same lift so for fishing is just as good. Batteries are 6500mah, they last up to 26 minutes depending on conditions
They both have the same lift capacity, but the SD4 has a better battery. You get up to 26 minutes on an FD1, up to 30 in a SD4. Main reason to go the SD4 over FD1 is if you need the better camera options. Batteries take around 90 minutes to charge
That batterys a pain to change!
Yep that is what would put me off
Why don’t you take the boat out and show us taking off from water near boat and landing ask Paul first
Taking off from the water is the same from boat or shore, but landing a drone in a boat is not an easy task nor is it recommended. We hand catch when in a boat, or we land the drone in the water next to the boat and then collect it.
You don’t land it in the boat close to the transom and net it😊
Bad after service repair.
