This opens a new realm for shore-based anglers to cast baits beyond waves and catch trophy fish quickly.
4.4 pound bait capacity, 0.8 mile casting range, S5 flight controller, GPS, calibration-free slide-in precise positioning, battery IP67 level 7, auto-fish saltwater-proof, wind resistance, FDFly app.
The Fisherman FD3 can fly safely while carrying baits up to 4.4 lbs or 2 kg into the ocean. It maximizes reliability, efficiency, and power-to-payload ratio with a high-voltage 65V battery, high-thrust brushless motors, and high-speed ESC.
Fisherman FD3 can operate at a range of up to 1.3 kilometers or 0.8 miles, allowing land-based anglers to easily bait beyond breakers or reach inaccessible areas with abundant game fish species.
The Multi-hook Fishing Fisherman FD3 boosts fishing yield to new heights. It allows anglers to set over 10 hooks, baits, or lures on a single line, deploying them at various depths for increased chances of catching multiple fish or species simultaneously.
The FD3 advanced version comes with a stabilized 4K camera, capturing detail-rich photos and videos. The camera tilts up or down via remote control for a broader view. With aerial video feedback, land-based anglers can place baits in the right location. Pro anglers can read waves and tides from high-quality footage to locate fish structures.
The AlphaGo S5 flight controller for fishing drones boosts performance by 10% with refined algorithms and improved stability control. It features automatic sensor calibration, magnetic interference reduction, and pendulum-free design. The FD3 can auto-drop bait and return to shore when battery low or signal weak, ensuring reliable fishing results in various locations.
The latest 9th-generation GPS module makes significant improvements in assisting FD3 flight by providing accurate positioning, navigation, and safety features. It boasts higher accuracy, faster acquisition, and multi-satellite access for seamless drone fishing.
The IP67 Saltwater-proof aircraft of FD3 is entirely sealed, then air-pressure tested and dunk-tested to guarantee 100% waterproofing. The fuselage is made from marine-grade ABS for increased strength and prevention of distortion. Waterproof motors, bait release, and internal electronics are coated with corrosion-resistant coating against salty ocean air. The self-floating design allows the drone to float when landing on water and take off again. If it capsizes, use joysticks to flip it back upright and fly back to shore.
Level 7 wind resistance thanks to the strong propulsion system and GPS 9.0, FD3 maintains a stable position and attitude in winds up to 18m/s.
Fisherman-friendly Remote Controller. Sleek design for comfort. Clean interface with labeled buttons for intuitive control. On-screen telemetry, video feedback, and voice alerts provide real-time situational awareness. Splash-proof and sand-proof body survives beach conditions. Easy to use, like playing video games.
