F1 Fish Finder

Chasing Innovation

The Chasing F1 (and F1 Pro) is a surface-traveling fish-finder drone made by Chasing Innovation (Shenzhen, China, founded 2016). It is not a fully submersible ROV but rather a surface drone that lowers a camera/sensor payload up to 20–30 m underwater. It is user-steered via a smartphone app (iOS/Android) or optional joystick remote over Wi-Fi (30 m range, extendable to 60 m with 3B remote), with autonomous features limited to GPS-based auto-return on signal loss. The F1 Pro variant adds features like infrared lighting, EIS, and bait drop; a newer model (CanFish F2) adds AI waypoint cruise and dual-frequency sonar, but that product is in pre-order. Several extracted facts appear to be from unrelated sources (academic AUV research, a video game boat guide) and do not describe the F1 system.

Evidence-graded claims from the Chasing Innovation deep report

Good
  • Chasing Innovation ROVs support real-time HD video transmission and camera stabilization via mobile app (iOS/Android)

    The independent in-depth review of the Chasing Dory on thelowcostsailor.com confirms real-time live video feed to a mobile device and hands-on operation, substantiating the core camera/transmission capability claims, though stabilization performance specifics remain vendor-reported.

Bad
  • Chasing Innovation's products are sold in 100+ countries with 100+ global after-sales outlets, confirming full commercial deployment at scale

    The 100+ countries and 100+ after-sales outlets figures are consistently cited across official, commerce, and LinkedIn sources, but all ultimately trace back to Chasing's own marketing materials with no independent third-party audit or verification of actual sales volume or outlet count.

    from Chasing Innovation deep report →
  • Chasing Innovation serves serious industrial application domains including hull inspection, offshore wind farm maintenance, emergency rescue, and aquaculture

    Multiple commerce and news sources (including AlphaGeo UK and the EDR Magazine Issuu article) list these industrial domains, but no independent customer case study, regulator report, or third-party field test confirms actual deployment or outcomes in any of these specific industrial use cases.

    from Chasing Innovation deep report →
  • Chasing Innovation holds 300+ patents including 100+ invention patents

    The 300+ patents figure (with 100+ invention patents) is cited consistently on the official website and echoed by commerce sources, but all citations trace back to Chasing's own disclosures with no independent patent database verification provided in the dossier.

  • The Chasing M2 Pro Max industrial-grade ROV offers improved ease-of-use and expanded capabilities over prior generations

    The sole source for M2 Pro Max capability improvements is a PR Newswire press release [11], which is a company-issued press release and not an independent review, benchmark test, or customer validation.
