Product overview
The FD2 carries a fishing rig offshore and releases its bait through a switch on the remote controller.
The Advanced version includes a 4K camera and bait release. The Basic version includes bait release without a camera.
With floats attached, the FD2 can land on water, remain afloat and take off again.
SwellPro warns that certain FD2 drones in operation may not meet applicable FAA Remote ID requirements. Purchasers in the United States who bought an FD2 after 2022 and suspect noncompliance are directed to contact SwellPro for assessment and possible remedial measures.
