Hello from the Crossroads of America MavicManiac81.

I too have a Spark and now a MA2.

Welcome to the Forum.

 

[MavicManiac81]

I was kind of forced to upgrade. Here is where my spark resides. 100 ft in the air. Thanks for the welcome.

Still trying to think of a way to get it down open to suggestions

Welcome to Mavic Pilots! Enjoy the forum!
The quickest way to get it down would be a chainsaw! ?
Joking of course. Good luck with that.?

Wow.

It doesn't look damaged at all.

I had a similar experience. The low battery RTH kicked in under a tree and up it went. The wind blew it out of the tree while I was getting a ladder and it crashed to the ground, damaging the gimbal.

I've seen these items used to launch a line up, perhaps shaking a branch once it's up there.

Amazon.com : throw line launcher arborist


A water balloon launcher may work too.

Welcome to MP! Glad to have you.

Sorry to see your Spark 'hanging out' in a tree. Been there. Mine was my starter drone (Potensic), but @ a lower height. Spend 3 months up there. Was able to get it down (finally) with a tennis ball launcher designed for teaching dogs to fetch. It still flys, but I like my M2 way better.

Welcome to the forum!
Just now saw the devastation of the wildfires around and indeed in Greenville. I sincerely hope that you are safe and well. I also surmise that the tree that has your drone is no more.
Fires are raging all over the world it seems and scienists say it will just get worse.
Stay safe, take care.

Welcome from the wilds of Western NC / Macon County. Not too far away and got some good flying in Oconee and others.

Welcome to the forum from down the road in Aiken. Suggest using a crab net (low country folks know what that is) and they usually have a pole about 6' long so you could climb and reach up to capture the Spark in the net? Please be careful and do get someone to video your attempt so we can smile at your efforts! <g>

Welcome to the forum from the beautiful woods of Maine!
If you had a backup drone, you might be able to use a fish hook, it worked for me!
