Frequently asked

Questions, answered by drone specialists

How far can a fishing drone carry bait?
Range depends on the platform. The SwellPro Fisherman MAX FD2 carries bait up to a mile offshore, and the XPECE ONE drops a 7 lb bait a mile out with FAA Remote ID built in. Lighter setups suit shorter runs over the breakers. We help you match the range and payload to the kind of fishing you do.
How much bait can a fishing drone carry?
Payload varies by model. The Fisherman MAX FD2 lifts up to 8 lb for big-game and shark fishing, while the SplashDrone 4 Plus handles up to 2 kg and the XPECE ONE drops 7 lb. The right payload depends on whether you are running a single bait or heavier rigs offshore.
Are fishing drones fully waterproof?
The drones in this collection are built to be waterproof and to land on water, which matters when conditions change or a drop goes wrong. SwellPro in particular is known for fully waterproof airframes designed to take off and land directly from the water surface.
Do you need a license to fly a fishing drone in the US?
For recreational use you must register the drone with the FAA if it weighs over 250 grams, follow the recreational flyer rules, and pass the TRUST test. Most fishing drones exceed that weight. Platforms with FAA Remote ID built in, like the XPECE ONE, make compliance simpler. We can point you to the current requirements for the model you choose.
Can you attach a camera and see where the bait drops?
Yes. Several platforms carry a stabilised camera, including the SplashDrone 4 Plus with a 48 MP 4K camera, so you can spot structure, feeding fish, and the exact drop point before releasing your bait. This turns guesswork into precision placement.
What support do you get buying a fishing drone from Scanixx?
Every fishing drone we sell is verified against the manufacturer specs, and you get advice from people who understand bait delivery and waterproof platforms. We help you choose the right range, payload, and camera setup before you order, and stay reachable after the sale.

Choosing the right fishing drone for the way you fish

A fishing drone puts your bait exactly where the fish are feeding, hundreds of meters offshore, over structure, or past the breakers where a rod cannot reach. The right platform depends on how far you need to carry bait, how much weight you are dropping, and whether you want a camera to spot structure before you release. This collection brings together the platforms anglers trust, from the SwellPro Fisherman and SplashDrone range to the XPECE ONE, every one fully waterproof, GPS-stabilised, and built to return home safely when conditions change.

For surf, shore, and offshore anglers, a bait release drone turns guesswork into precision placement, reaching feeding grounds that are simply out of casting range. Payload and range are the two numbers that matter most: lighter setups suit shorter runs, while heavy-lift platforms carry several pounds of bait a full mile out for big-game and shark fishing. If you are comparing range, payload, waterproof rating, or FAA Remote ID compliance, the Scanixx team verifies every spec against the manufacturer and helps you choose the right drone before you buy.
