Anyone got any ideas I haven't seen yet on you tube on "rescuing" her rather then knocking her down and plunging her to her death? Any ideas? C'mon guys. Brainstorm!!!

drone
rope

drone fishing, but fishing in a tree not water........maybe
 
have a couple of mates with a blanket, get a slingshot and some thin line tied to a good stone, see if you can get it over the drone and shake her down.

How do we know what you've seen on YouTube?
 
wheres the obligatory pic of the Mavic in the tree? Or, the video of it flying into it?
 
Brainstorming...

hire a helicopter, use a rope ladder from helicopter to snatch drone while hovering above the tree - remember it's going to need to be a 440' long ladder because if you go by a lot of posts here, manned aircraft can't go below 500'.

Buy a chain saw, slice discs out of the trunk, taking the tree crown down to ground level one trunk disc at a time.

3D print an ultra mega Dr Octopus costume with working tentacles, use tentacles to lift you to drone or lift drone down to you.

These are all methods I have never personally seen on YouTube, but I have not seen every video on YouTube so cannot categorically state that it is not possible to currently see these potential arboreal drone rescue techniques.
