Does a drone exist that can fly and fully submerge into water?

Hi Fellow Mavic Pilots! Im new to the drone game having just recieved a Mini from my wife at Xmas. I realise its a very limited model given its age but im having great fun with it. Im already planning my upgrade next year Nice to find a forum like this to share experiences and photo/video. Anyone else here based in Norway?
Cheers!

Welcome from Long Island NY. That’s a great bird to start with. Don’t underestimate it. Quite impressive as you’ll see. Upgrade? Lol. Yeah, well that seems to be a given in this arena. But one step at a time. You will have a blast with the mini. I fly a Mavic2Pro. MavicPilots is a wealth of everything you need to know. Try search as it’s full of answers and if not ask. Flysafe and Godspeed, Droniac

Me again Less than optimal flying weather thanks to alot of low cloud/fog today but in my desperation to practise/play I went flying anyway - always keeping the drone in view. When it returned I noticed alot of condensation on the drone especially on the propeller props. Didn't seem to effect the flying abilities. I assume it's built to withstand some humidity just not a full submersion. Am I right?

If you’d like to explore what I consider “foul weather flying”, checkout @Phantomrain.org (who is verified sales by MavicPilots and has great insight and experience in this genre) check out his website and videos. You’ll be buying a neoprene wetsuit and rescue jacket, which, yup, lets you land on water in no time lol. Cool site, Very Cool people!!! I’m waiting for a good snow. Flysafe and have a blast! Godspeed, Droniac

Just checked it out and already picked out the wet suit for my mini Great tip! They didnt recommend the rescue jacket for the first mini - doesnt have quite enough power. Excited to get the colourful wetsuit.

Happy to hear! As I’ve said in a past post that it need be installed correctly. Doing so gives you the seal from the water (esp battery). Good news is 2 fold. Totally doable and functional. The second being that Coal is a great guy. You’ll feel secure and have a blast. I’m waiting for a real snow by me. Still ! They reported snow yesterday snd today. Non snow. (tappin foot). I even have my “freeze my butt off cloths” on a chair on the ready lol.
