Go Beyond the Cast

The FD3S allows you to carry your bait and fishing rig offshore and release it in your chosen fishing area rather than being restricted by normal casting distance. Its maximum payload of up to 2 kg provides capacity for substantial baits and fishing rigs across a wide range of fishing applications.

Actual payload and flight performance will vary according to bait weight, wind, flight distance, battery condition and operating conditions.

4K Camera with Live View

The integrated 4K camera provides a live view while the FD3S is in flight. From the beach, the camera can assist with navigation and help identify features such as gutters, channels, sandbanks, reef edges, surface activity and other potentially productive fishing areas.

Once you have selected your location, position the drone and release your bait using the remote-controlled bait release system.

Purpose-Built for Saltwater Fishing

The Fisherman FD3S is designed specifically for fishing applications rather than being a general recreational camera drone adapted to carry bait.

Its IP67 waterproof construction helps protect the aircraft when operating around saltwater, spray and wet coastal environments. The self-floating design also allows the aircraft to remain afloat if it lands on the water.

Correct cleaning and maintenance after saltwater use are essential. Always follow SwellPro's care and maintenance instructions.

Intelligent Flight Assistance

The FD3S includes flight-assistance features designed to support offshore bait deployment, including GPS-assisted hovering, automatic altitude holding, one-button Return to Home, low-battery Return to Home and signal-loss Return to Home.

Fast, Simple Fishing Setup

The FD3S is designed to get anglers flying with minimal preparation. Install the propellers, insert the battery, complete the required pre-flight checks and prepare the bait release system before flying.

Suitable Fishing Applications

• Beach and surf fishing
• Rock and land-based fishing
• Offshore bait deployment
• Boat fishing
• Reef and structure fishing
• Large-bait fishing

Important Performance Information

Maximum flight distance, flight time, payload capacity and other performance figures are measured under specific test conditions. Real-world performance can vary depending on payload weight, wind speed and direction, flight speed, battery condition, temperature, distance travelled, fishing rig configuration and operating conditions.

Always allow sufficient battery capacity for the aircraft to return safely.

Australian Drone Operation

Operators are responsible for flying the FD3S in accordance with applicable Australian aviation regulations, local restrictions and safe operating practices. Always check the intended flying location and conditions before launching and become familiar with the aircraft and controls before carrying fishing bait offshore.
