Solution 3 is differentiated from the rest in a few ways. For one, it is the smallest of the three, by far, which facilitates it having the highest power input/size ratio. The ROV is slightly lighter than neutrally buoyant, so it will naturally want to float to the surface. However, this design has the same amount of power input to the up/down propeller as the other designs with less weight to have to push back down the water column. Its dimensions are 1' x 1' x 1'6". It is made of aluminum and PVC.
The displacement of this hull is 180 cubic centimeters, as some members are made of capped pvc. This number equates to 2,950 cubic centimeters, or 2.95 kg of water.
Now that the solutions have been determined, they each need to be compared against the specifications. The "best solution" will surface, and then I can run with the solution most suited for the task.
