Pay attention to the OP. I think he is looking for a Marlin fishing app

Good pickup Trev,
I have 2 months before the season kicks off big time down here, I need to be flying my drone pretty good by then as I want to be able to take off and land out of the cockpit of a moving game boat. Keep practicing hey.
Cheers

Put floaties on it.
Had an RC float plane I built, dunked it a couple of times. Just rinsed out the receiver and put in the sun to dry and all was ok. Quad may have a bit fussier electronics though. All good fun. :D

Ol55, that is a nice bit of gear you are flying :mrgreen:
If the boat is moving why do you need the quad to take out baits? Or for another use?

Rather than a drone for flying over water consider a RTF (Ready to Fly) foamy. You can get an all foam Vampire electric ducted fan around $100. All you need is batteries and a transmitter. You can hand launch it rather than use the retractable landing gear.

I had one and knowing it wouldn't sink made me a lot more confident when flying over water. Should it plonk into the water (controlled crash vs plummeting) there's a good chance you could slowly taxi it back to shore (or boat) for recovery.

You'd still be up for some camera gear but it wouldn't be that expensive.

Just a thought.

Dont want to put the baits out with it just want to film all the goings-on from the other side of the jumping marlin looking back at the boat, might also be good on a Spanish Mackerel bite.
