A frame is not included in the kit, but frame materials can be purchased from your local hardware store.
The assembled AngelFish kit is used for the ROV-in-a-Bag activity. ROV-in-a-Bag is recommended as an activity to introduce and get students excited about designing and building their own ROVs. ROV-in-a-Bag allows students to quickly build then operate – “fly” – an ROV in a swimming pool or test tank.
Assembled kits (A.K.A. ROV-in-a-Bag) require additional handling time of 2 weeks for assembly and 5-7 days for shipping from time of order.
