Chasing Innovation Gladius Mini S with 100m Tether Flash Pack (MiniS100FLASH)

The Gladius Mini S Underwater Drone from CHASING is designed for content creators, travel photographers, marine professionals, and anyone fascinated by underwater exploration. This Flash Pack bundle includes the drone, the CHASING Robotic Arm with grabber claw, and a Gladius Mini Backpack for convenient transport.

Equipped with a 4K UHD and 12MP camera featuring electronic image stabilization, the Mini S captures high-quality video and photos and transmits them to a surface controller for live viewing, sharing, or storage. The drone offers up to four hours of runtime per charge and incorporates anti-stuck motor technology to help prevent it from becoming trapped in sand.

GLADIUS MINI S Underwater Drone Features

The Mini S records UHD 4K video and captures 12MP still images. It supports live viewing on up to three devices simultaneously and allows users to save or share content easily. Compared to the earlier Gladius Mini model, this version includes a direct tether connection to the controller for a more stable connection, eliminating previous Wi-Fi drop issues. It also features a more powerful battery that extends runtime to four hours, anti-stuck motor technology, a 64GB SD card, and enhanced image stabilization for its 1/2.3" CMOS sensor camera with an f/1.8 aperture.

Compact and travel-friendly, the Mini S measures 15.7 × 8.9 × 5.7 inches and weighs only 6 pounds, making it easy to carry in a backpack. An action camera mount is included for users who wish to customize the drone further.
