Hello everyone,

I’m working on a project where I am trying to have a neutrally buoyant frame. For my calculations, I would need to know the T500 weight in water but can’t find the information online. Anyone can help me with that ?

Thanks,

Hi @MatteoBeaudet, welcome to the forum! 🙂

That’s information we’re planning to share, but hasn’t yet been measured (which is why it currently shows as “TBD” in the technical details). I’m told it should be available by the ‘regular availability’ release, which I believe is planned for next month.

If it’s important to have an estimate as soon as possible, you can get a volume estimate from the provided 3D model + 1.5m of 9mm diameter cable, and use [our buoyancy calculator](https://bluerobotics.com/learn/buoyancy-calculator/) to determine the equivalent weight in water (negative of “net buoyancy”).
