Smooth, controlled thrust

Rather than trying to be “crazy fast”, it’s tuned for relaxed underwater cruising – ideal for covering more ground while snorkelling, or easing effort during longer swims.

Compact size that actually gets used

The best sea scooter is the one you’ll take with you. The Lite’s small footprint makes it far more likely to come on holiday, live on the boat, or be kept in the van ready for a quick dip.

Finger-safe prop guard + sensible safety feel

The guard helps protect fingers and reduces snag risk, which matters if you’re sharing it with family members or using it in shallow, playful environments.

Frequently asked questions

Which Subnado should I choose?

Both verified models are rated IP68 to 60 m and use the same three gears (Low, High and Super Gear).

  • Subnado Lite: 500 W, 6.5 kg thrust, 1.4 m/s with one unit and over 2.0 m/s with two. Up to 56 minutes, with a 50-second Super Gear burst. 98 Wh battery, 377 x 60 mm, 1.4 kg. The compact, travel-minded option.
  • Subnado Plus: 800 W, 9.3 kg thrust, 1.7 m/s with one unit and 2.4 m/s with two. Up to 60 minutes, with a 150-second Super Gear burst. 144 Wh battery, 397 x 60 mm, 1.8 kg. The higher-power option for scuba, freediving and SUP propulsion.

Both charge over USB-C in about 1.2 hours. If you fly often, note the battery difference and see our question on taking a Subnado on a plane.

How deep can the Subnado go?

The Subnado Lite and the Subnado Plus are both rated IP68 to a depth of 60 metres.

Keeping that seal intact depends on maintenance. Apply a small amount of grease to the green O-rings on the cable connector regularly, and avoid taking the unit apart after every session. That wears the O-ring faster than anything else.

How fast is the Subnado and how long does it run?

Subnado Lite: 1.4 m/s with a single unit, over 2.0 m/s running two. Up to 56 minutes, with a 50-second Super Gear burst.

Subnado Plus: 1.7 m/s with a single unit, 2.4 m/s running two. Up to 60 minutes, with a 150-second Super Gear burst.

Both have three gears: Low, High and Super Gear. Run time depends on which gear you use, how deep you are and how much you are carrying.

Can I take my Subnado battery on a plane?

It depends which model you have, and you should always confirm with your airline before you travel.

  • Subnado Lite: 98 Wh, which sits under the 100 Wh threshold most airlines apply to lithium batteries in carry-on baggage.
  • Subnado Plus: 144 Wh, which is above 100 Wh. Batteries between 101 and 160 Wh normally require prior approval from the airline.

Rules differ between carriers and routes, so check with your airline in advance. We can supply the UN38.3 test report and MSDS documentation if they ask for it.

How long does the Subnado take to charge?

About 1.2 hours for a full charge on both the Lite and the Plus, over USB-C.

The Lite charges at up to 100 W (PD3.0) and can also work as a power bank. The Plus supports 140 W bi-directional fast charging (PD3.1).

Topping up with a lower-power charger is fine, particularly when the unit is already showing five or six bars.

Does the Subnado come with a wireless remote?

No. The Subnado is operated with a wired thumb controller, which is included in both the Standard package and the SUP Kit. A wireless remote is a Flyer EVO feature. The Subnado does not use one.

Where do I download the Waydoo app?

The Waydoo app is free on both platforms. Search for "Waydoo", or use these links: Waydoo app on the App Store or Waydoo app on Google Play.

The app is used for GPS ride data, firmware updates and registering your Subnado for extended warranty.

What should I do before using my Subnado for the first time?

Run the grease and installation check before you use it and before you charge it. It takes a couple of minutes and it is the single most effective thing you can do to keep water out of the unit.

The video below walks through it.
