Hi great question, it performs quite well, about as well as a divers eyes do. It has an HD camera with LED lights. Here's proof of the visibility in a murky storm water pipe in Tampa, Florida. Bonus, they also encountered an alligator. Proof: https://youtu.be/a4ABs7oPHwk

Hi! Thanks for your question. There is water water everywhere, and we have units deployed in many places around the world. We also travel a great deal with our products and would be delighted to give hands on to anyone nearby. Just let us know where you are and we will see what we can do to get you piloting.

Yes, LiPo batteries. The motors are enclosed in the body, and actually work to keep the temperature up in cold water. In warm conditions the aluminum sides act as heat sinks for the motors, keeping things cool when needed.

I haven't heard of any groups using our underwater drones as part of an underwater treasure hunt. I'm imagining something like an Easter egg hunt, which sounds like A LOT of fun. I think you just found my next dinner party event! Thank you :) We have sold many underwater drones to people interested in searching and exploring ship wrecks. I recently sold one to an older gentleman that wasn't able to dive anymore, and had a lot of great stories of gold coins he found in his day. He now has our 'Worker' package that has a grabber arm on it, so he's out searching for his coins again :) The most exciting find was recently our underwater drone discovered the famous 'Rio De Janeiro' off the coast of Norway.

Rio De Janeiro was a German warship that was sunk by a Polish submarine off the coast of Norway, the day before the Germans invaded Norway
