It was almost unbelievable when I plugged in the micro SD card to my computer and real crisp data showed up on my screen...........time for Adobe Elements!!! (with a big grin).

The flight log did not tell me anything I did not see first hand. With no GPS there was not much to look at.

You are welcome. I was kinda speechless there at the last second myself.

Hopefully, I won't use up so much equipment the next excursion. There is still a lot of cool places to fly around, both in the sky and under water in our neck-of-the-woods. Stay tuned.

I am still not sure what happened first, but I was experiencing gusty wind, very little satellite connectivity, and no real good visual contact. The drone moved to the left on its own, (no stick movements). See: "Wolf Creek Falls Take 1" on this Forum. (Video Showcase). I had this phenomenon...

That was the first time my assistant had the recovery tool in his hand. The live video feed really helped.

I wish you good luck. It is always exciting to recover your lost drone.

Now that I have gotten the crash part behind me, I will suggest you view "Saga of Wolf Creek Falls" to see the rest of the story.

Thanks. Be sure to check out "Saga of Wolf Creek Falls" on this channel to see the other episode.

It seems to work pretty well, but I did have some problems navigating the under water currents. I did burn up the right yaw motor by sucking in some vegetation from the river bottom. Hope I can find parts in time for the next adventure.

There are a lot of similar places to capture video here in Oregon. Stay tuned on my channel for the next adventure.

The submersible drone is a Gladius Mini made by Chasing. It made the reconnaissance and recovery video feed possible.

I think that DJI would be impressed as to how well the drone held up after a 85 ft. fall into 25 ft. of water and then being chewed on by crawfish for 8 months.

Yes, there are some beautiful sights here in Oregon worth capturing drone footage of.

Here is the link: An amazing thing happened on October 8th. 2020 that all drone pilots need to see. Never give up on finding a lost drone. I found my M2P that had been resting in 25ft. deep water for 8 months . Click the link above to see what it was and how I recovered it.
