SwellPro IP67 Waterproof Drones

SwellPro drones are engineered for the elements: IP67 waterproof shells, corrosion-resistant hardware and sealed electronics for use around the sea, lakes and rivers. From bait-drop fishing and shoreline surveys to boat-based filming and wet-weather shoots, these aircraft are built to fly where others won’t.

Saltwater-ready — fly at the coast, in sea mist and rain (always rinse and dry after salt exposure).
Purpose-built options — FD3 (balanced camera + payload), FD2 (heavy bait-drop), FD1+ (compact bait-drop), SD4+ (all-weather 4K filming).
Accessories & spares — for deeper specs, spares and pro accessories, visit SwellPro UK.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are SwellPro drones really waterproof?

Yes — they’re designed and rated for IP67. That means a sealed, water-resistant airframe for use in wet environments. Always follow the manual, keep seals clean, and rinse/dry after saltwater exposure.

Which SwellPro model should I choose?

Quick picks: FD3 (balanced camera + bait-drop), FD2 (heavier payload/bait-drop focus), FD1+ (compact, great value), SD4+ (all-weather aerial filming). If you need deeper specs or pro accessories, see SwellPro UK.

Can they take off from and land on water?

They’re built for water operations; take-off/landing on water may be possible when configured and used as per the manual and conditions. Always practise in calm water, avoid swell, and confirm procedures in your model’s guide.

Are they suitable for drone fishing?

Yes — the Fisherman series (FD3, FD2, FD1+) is designed for bait/line delivery. Always check local angling by-laws and aviation rules before deploying lines over water.

What’s the difference between FD3, FD2 and FD1+?

FD3: balanced platform with camera and payload release. FD2: heavier-duty bait-drop and lifting capability. FD1+: compact bait-drop solution for simple, reliable line delivery.

What about the SplashDrone 4+ (SD4+)?

SD4+ is the all-weather filming option in the SwellPro family — ideal for coastal content, boating and wet-weather shoots. Ask us for availability; for ecosystem add-ons and deep dives, visit SwellPro UK.

How do I care for a waterproof drone after saltwater use?

Rinse the exterior with fresh water (no high pressure), wipe dry, and let the aircraft air-dry with ports open as directed. Check gaskets, props and connectors, and follow the maintenance schedule in your manual.

What accessories do you recommend?

Spare batteries, payload release (where not included), carry case, fast microSD, and ND filters for filming. For specialist parts and upgrades, see SwellPro UK.

Can I use these in rain and sea spray?

Yes — that’s the point of IP67. Still avoid extreme conditions and heavy surf, and follow the model limits. Rinse and dry after salt spray.

Do you provide setup and after-sales support?

Yes. Drone Sales UK offers UK advice, setup help and after-sales support. For spares, parts and deeper technical docs, head to SwellPro UK.
