Small profile... big performance

A smaller size does not mean this ROV lacks power or versatility. This ROV system, designed, engineered and manufactured on-site to strict ISO standards, undergoes 20-plus hours of tests before delivery. The core construction of marine-grade aluminum and the same robust engineering standards found in our larger ROV vectorized thruster systems ensure this system will stand up to the harshest tests. Designed to be compatible with Falcon UAV Oceanus Pro Classic ROV system, the Oceanus Mini ROV receives power over the ROV tether and can perform dives to 400m. The Oceanus Mini is compatible with many attachments developed for the Oceanus Pro ROV.

Falcon UAV Oceanus Mini ROV system includes these features

Portable, mission-ready ROVs that can be set up and deployed within minutes by a single person.

Rigorous testing of all ROV components ensures our ROV systems withstand extensive use in the harshest conditions. The Falcon UAV Oceanus Mini ROV system is independently certified to a standard depth of 400 meters.

Vectorized carbon fibre thruster design generates power to spare.

Six powerful vectorized thruster engines generate ROV speeds up to 4 knots, Oceanus ROV systems provide top-of-class speed and lift capabilities, and lateral axis ROV movement is standard. 3-D printed carbon fibre thruster assemblies are extremely durable, especially in ice-cold water. Unlike typical plastic thrusters, our thrusters withstand drops, dirt, scrapes, and bumps.

Power over tether design.

Falcon UAV ROV tether provides communications, streaming video and a pair of independent auxiliary conductors for compatible ROV accessory use with no noticeable electrical interruption or video lag tested to tether lengths of 500 meters. Falcon UAV neutrally buoyant ROV tether is made from regionally sourced and fabricated components and is available as measured or custom-cut tether lengths. Pair your ROV tether with a Falcon UAV Tether Deployment system (TDS). Our tether deployment reels can accommodate tether lengths measuring up to 600 meters.
