Mini 2 DJI Mini 2 Forced Landing after searching for Petroglyphs

[Michael Ainsworth]

Great video and music.
Regarding Los, I can lose visual fairly easily when watching screen etc. I regularly put the map up to check my whereabouts especially when returning. I don’t rely on RTH apart from the occasional test. The map mode is, I think, underrated. It shows the drones track out and it’s heading so is great to be able to orientate the drones heading.

When I first read your reply, I knew it was unfeasible . . . at the moment.
Like you say, everything on the planet started with an idea.

A long time ago someone thought "What if we put 4 little motors on this X shape frame, and make a flying machine that uses motor speed to propel in any direction ?"
"Might be fun." (And useful.)

As you say "unfeasible . . . at the moment.". BUT......

I got a little carried away searching and videoing Petroglyphs in the local desert at Little Red Rock yesterday. The battery got down to 0%, the wind came up and the Mini 2 was forced down. This area is under construction for new homes and all roads in are marked no trespassing so I parked over 2 miles away and hiked part way in. Sounds a bit strange I guess but I actually enjoy the experience of hunting for lost drones!
