Hi Christian, welcome aboard.
OK, I have been using the BR2 professionally for quite some time now and performed inspection of a sunken boat in harsh ocean conditions and I have inspected more that 7000 meters of pipeline from -1 to - 60 meters in open water conditions, drill rig anchor lines in fjord conditions, fish farm anchor lines, 7000 m^2 seabed survey, internal pipe inspection through a 225m long inlet pipe, inspection inside a hydra plant tunnel and more to it.

Hello,
We are presently building a surface controller to allow for a more industrial approach to controlling the BlueROV2. (And hopefully smoother)
Here are the specs:
USB Joystick interface (Naively supported by Windows)
8 axis 4096bit input (4 used, 4 spares)
32 dimmable backlit buttons
Hall effect 3 axis joystick
Hall effect single axis joystick
Tether connector
DC jack for power (Fathom board and backlight)
External DC 12 V power supply
Fathom-X tether board
Panel mount Ethernet
This is…
