Testing

On May 31, 2012, we tested our submersible in Drexel University's pool in the Recreation Center.  We made minor adjustments to buoyancy by adding foam pool noodle flotation by zip ties onto the submersible and tether.  We are neutrally buoyant.  Below are some pictures and videos from the testing.

Camera, tether, control box, and submersible at the edge of the pool.
