"David,
Thanks for your reply.
A 4 thrustered set up may work using the ArduSub code as it is based on ArduCopter which has the loiter function.
Currently though the loiter isn't implemented in ArdSub but it is being worked on.

All,I have built a towed subsea vehicle for subsea wreck surveys. The operation is very basic and is currently controlled by an Arduino Mega.The vehicle weighs around 300kg when fully ballasted with lead. The vessel then deploys the towed vehicle…
