Haha yeah i'm guessing it was just coincidental. Or maybe they were filing some marketing material. I did grab the Heli though

Thanks everyone!

Wind gusts is what can really do you in. My app reading was 14mph but there were gusts in my area. Drone was struggling like a fish out of water.

Can anyone help identify this plane from the belly? Flew over me this morning. What struck me weird were two helicoptors hovering near the coastline as it flew by. They left about a minute after the jet passed.

What's wrong with flying from home?

Thankfully it didn't hit anyone, that is a heavy drone. Thanks for sharing we can all learn from it.

Nice

Sorry I should have been more specific from the get-go but I was still a bit hyped up from almost losing my drone. First is the blade and screw that came out was on the front right. I changed out my propellers earlier in the year. However I had difficulty removing the factory screws. At first...

Yes aftermarket were installed correctly with their pairs. However, the last set of propellers I couldn't remove because the screws were stripped. So my drone has 6 blue blades and 2 black blades.

So thanks to everyone. I'm guessing a propeller lost indeed. However, there is a dark shadow when the drone starts to flip which look like could be a wing buuuuuut....the screw was missing along with the propeller so probably not.

Good Idea Here is the video with increased exposure.

Okay thanks for that information.

At the time I didn't realize a propeller was missing I was just so happy I found it. But you can see it would have been near impossible to notice without actively looking for it.

Yes I'm beginning to suspect this more. I switched out to after market propeller's a few months ago. The install was problematic because the dji pro mini 3 screws are notorious bad to work with and they strip easily. When I brought the drone home i screwed on a new propeller and tested it...

It was 6am. I've know crows fly early in the day and they can be hostile to drones. But I'm beginning to suspect a propeller loss because the screw was gone too.
