Finger controller Waydoo Subnado — extended

Waydoo Subnado finger controller — extended is a compact wired thumb controller designed specifically for the Waydoo Subnado underwater propulsion unit. The extended variant features a cable up to 3 meters long to provide increased reach and mounting flexibility compared with the standard controller. This finger-operated remote supplies intuitive thumb and finger inputs for real-time command of the Subnado device and is intended for use with the Subnado model (not compatible with Subnado Plus).

Advantages

The extended cable length of up to 3 m enables control from a greater distance and simplifies integration with a variety of mounting setups, including flotation rigs and auxiliary drive assemblies. The compact form factor and lightweight construction make the controller unobtrusive when attached to rails, grips or custom mounts. The wired connection ensures immediate, low-latency response for precise maneuvering and reliable command transmission in recreational and professional underwater applications.

Suitable for

• Remote control of Waydoo Subnado underwater propulsion units mounted on small watercraft or floating platforms
• Use as an auxiliary or secondary drive controller during diving, filming, or marine inspection tasks
• Installations where a longer cable is required for flexible mounting or operator positioning

Key specifications

• Cable length: up to 3 m for extended reach and flexible mounting
• Compatibility: designed for Waydoo Subnado (not compatible with Subnado Plus)
• Dimensions: 10 × 24 × 0.1 cm
• Weight: approximately 0.07 kg for minimal added mass
• Control method: thumb and finger-operated wired input for real-time commands

How to use

Connect the finger controller to the dedicated port on the Waydoo Subnado unit following the manufacturer’s connection instructions. Secure the controller to a convenient mounting point using straps or clamps so that thumb and finger access is comfortable and stable. Operate the controller by applying thumb or finger inputs to change thrust direction and intensity; verify proper response in a safe environment before full operation. Disconnect the controller and stow the cable when not in use to avoid entanglement.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, inspect the cable and connector for damage before each use and avoid sharp bends near the connector. When mounting on flotation or auxiliary platforms, route the cable to prevent snagging and secure excess length. Do not use the controller with Subnado Plus as it is not compatible.
