Drone extraction from a lake

Micro-SD cars are cheap enough that you could keep a bunch in the case and swap them for each flight. And today is a good day to buy some from Amazon.

Agreed. Today is a very very good day to get high quality fast hi-cap sd cards that should basically last you....forever; from Amazon. If you don't like Amazon, they will probably price match you at Best Buy.

I guess now would be a good time to bring this up again and recommend this:

NewQ Filehub AC750 Travel Router: Portable Hard Drive SD Card Reader & Mini WiFi Range Extender for Travel | Wireless Access External Harddrive & USB Storage Device to Backup Photo & Files from iPhone

I've had it for awhile and I use it alot. For your one drone, all you need is 2 microSD cards and while one is in the drone recording footage, the other is in this device saving off the files to an SSD.

Read about it here and other good info:

Backup drive for saving sd cards in the field

Does anyone know of a stand-alone backup drive for saving sd cards in the field, preferably rechargeable?
