Momba ny Arc Fitaovana Fanadiovana Nify amin'ny Rano amin'ny Fandroana

ARC dia fitaovana fanadiovana nify amin'ny rano natao hampiasaina mandritra ny fotoana fandroana andavanandro. Mifamatotra amin'ny fantsona fandroana ny ARC ka mampiasa ny tosika ranon'ny fantsona efa misy, ka tsy mila herinaratra na bateria intsony. Ny tantana dia mitazona lohan'ny rano miloko efatra azo soloina, izay manadio ny elanelan'ny nify sy manaraka ny sisin'ny nifiny. Fandaminana telo azo ovaina no manome tosi-drano malemy na mafimafy kokoa, ary bokotra maro asa no anovana ireo tosi-drano ireo. Toby fitehirizana kely, mahatohitra ny hamandoana ary mifamatotra amin'ny andrimaso no mitazona ny ARC rehefa tsy ampiasaina.
