It should have a name.

After a quick poll it will be called.



Floaty Mc Floatface

Yes, great name. Especially, if you stay off, of the water surfaces. Hahaha

Or then it will be Stinky McSinky in the deep Drinky... ;-)


Eh, what ever floats your drone/boat!!  Chuckles

Heh...  I know where that name came from...

It is a modification of a name which was superceded by Sir David Attenborough.

Haha thats very good

I now have the name across the front. It's a bit of fun.

Not entirely. Apparently one of its support boats has the original name.

The UAV has the original name Boaty McBoatface

Perhaps you might give consideration, to post a pic of your awesome customized drone, in the RC fleet thread?

I will ask him.

He is a bit shy and prefers to be behind (or above) the camera.

Yeah, I kind of figured as much already.  Or you would have shared the pic by now, ok.

It's embarrassing showing off the dangly parts to total strangers. Camera hanging free. ;-)

Particularly in a world wide popular drone forum. No sweat. Keep its privacy if you must.

& Shyness is frequently a short leash on life's greatest pleasures. Some prefer to fly solo, alone.
Blush and forget about it.

The UAV is actually a drone, or it will be in a couple of years time, the ship "RRS Sir David Attenborough" has only just started construction.

From the video it looks like it will have aerial as well as submersible drones:



I wonder if the helideck is aluminium so that you can land drones without magnetic interference?

I hope you have chosen the correct colour scheme?

It is the P3S default colours. So it is white and red.

I understand the Underwater Autonomous Vehicle will be called Boaty Mc Boatface.

That name does bring a smile to the face.

Very Funny.

We're all individuals and it's interesting to see what people come up with when naming something, as it gives insight to them. So, the fact that my P4 is named 'Enterprise', my P4P was subsequently named 'Firefly', and my next will be 'LEXX' - does that make me a nerd?

Nah, it's followed me around for a long time. A reminder of a game I used to play with my daughter when she was very young ...

Ha! Good one.

We have a dog that I called 'Get Off The Couch'. But my wife over-ruled me.

Remember this is a family friendly forum... Hahaha
