There is an Mavic Pro Platinum lying on the ground, free for the taking. I’m sure some young, strong, adventurous person could manage to retrieve it. Personally, I do not want to get injured or die attempting to retrieve it.
Purchased in August 2018, with over 1500 flights, it has a Frankenstein makeup with a new motherboard, gimbal, bottom plate and landing gear legs. The lens is the best one I could find over the years, very good focus over the field of view. The flight characteristics of the AC firmware have been modified. The battery is new purchased this year.
The MPP was lost on 9/29/2020 about 6:37 PM. It has been rained on. I suspect the damage could be light. I disconnected from the AC, then reconnected to download the two videos on the SD card.
I know exactly where it is as I can see the LED lights. Of course by now the battery is dead. It lies on a the river bank above the Peshekee River, Champion Township, Michigan, near Van Riper State Park.
Here are the coordinates... good luck!
UPDATE: If you find it, text or call me. I’d like to know it found a home. The phone number is in the battery compartment.
UPDATE: It has been recovered by @Made2Phly at great risk and cost, gimbal repaired by me, sent back to @Made2Phly, who later changed his mind and wanted a different drone, and finally sold it back to me. A crazy series of events. And now we are good friends, and I continue to fly the “Nephew” (MPP).
