SwellPro - Fisherman MAX (FD2) Heavy Lifting Fishing Drone

Fisherman Max FD2 is SwellPro's flagship fishing drone, designed to deliver 7 lbs (3.2 kg) baits to deeper waters or hard-to-reach areas. Eliminating the need for a kayak or boat, Fisherman MAX FD2 helps professional anglers focus their time and energy on battling giant fish, giving them the best chance to break their personal best (PB) record.

Equipped with bait release mechanism, SwellPro fishing drone can carry baited fishing line far beyond the range of tradition rod casting.

The release mechanism can be remotely triggered to release the bait into the water.

The Fisherman Max FD2 can fly at the max speed of up to 20 m/s (65 km/h or 40 mph) and maintain a steady flight path in strong winds.

Deploy Baits Up To 6 Times
On a single battery charge, the Fisherman Max FD2 can complete up to 6 flight trips, each traveling over 400 yards to deploy baits weighing up to 4 lbs (2kg).

Deploy Baits of 5 Rods In 20 Minutes
The Fisherman Max FD2 enables anglers to cover more water efficiently, deploy multiple rods faster, and greatly increase their chances of landing giant fish.

Smart Return To The Shore
After releasing the bait, simply press one button the fishing drone will automatically return to the exact launch point and land safely.

The FDFly APP can turn the Fisherman Max FD2 into self-navigation mode and automate the process of bait deployment.
With its intuitive interface, it makes drone fishing easier, faster, and more efficient.

Fully IP67 Waterproof Design
The Fisherman Max FD2 is fully sealed design to withstand complete saltwater submission, ensuring long-lasting durability in marine environments.

Safe Water Landing
4 attachable floating bars enable the fishing drone to safely float on water and take off again from the water.

Saltwater-proof Electronics
All the electronics, including the flight sensors, battery connections, bait release, motors, and cameras, are completely sealed and coated with corrosion-resistant materials.

Level 6 Wind Resistance
With advanced flight control algorithms and strong propulsion, the Fisherman Max FD2 is able to maintain stability and control in winds of up to 40 km/h (30 mph).

Up To 30 GPS Satellites
The newest GPS technology allows the drone to lock its position and maintain stable hovering, even in strong winds.

Barometer Altitude Holding
A high-precision barometer ensures that the drone can automatically maintain a steady height during flight.

Payload Auto-Stabilizing
The SwellPro proprietary flight control system constantly monitors and adjusts the drone's balance, effectively reducing the pendulum effect when carrying heavy baits.

Fail-safe Automatic Return
In the event of low battery or signal loss, the drone automatically returns to the launch point, preventing crashes.

Real-time Video Feedback For Safer Flights
The advanced version of the Fisherman Max FD2 is equipped with a 4K camera, a long-range HD video transmitter, and an integrated video screen, providing first-time users with enhanced control and improved precision for safer navigation.

Beach Reading
The Fisherman Max FD2 provides a perfect bird's eye view, allowing anglers to scan the beach for sand banks, gutters, and drop-offs, analyze wave patterns and rip currents - identify productive fishing spots where fish are likely to gather.

Fish Scouting
Scan vast areas and quickly identify fish or schools of fish on the water's surface - maximize your chances of a successful catch.

100% Bait Accuracy
Precisely monitor the fishing drone's position over the water, align the bait release with pinpoint precision, whether targeting a specific location, underwater structure, or a school of fish.
