I was amazed by how long it survived - I can only imagine how hot it was in there!

But... she gave good videos despite the damage... and she lasted as long as she could until the end. Appropriate final resting place for this little drone.

Definitely a tough little bird. I salute the Mini 3 Pro!

Such a fitting final salute to a powerful little bird.

Sad indeed.
You did the right thing.
Thanks for sharing.

It was sad. Reminded me of a Viking funeral. A faithful servant.

Wasn't my bird. I just shared his video. Kinda brought a tear to my eye when I first watched it though. I think I can speak for all of us Pilots when I say, we do love our birds, and this was a sad but fitting ending to a great bird.

Oh great! Knowing my luck my drones going to get a copy of this and I won't hear the end of..."we drones have rights you know" "drones have feelings" and other such bleatings. Thanks a million for posting this.....

Quite touching.

 

[GFields]

Wow, that was sad to watch

Brave little drone.

This video certainly tugs at the heartstrings especially for those of us (me included…) who name our drones. If you ever read one of my Welcome Notes posted in the Pilot Check In Sub-forum, you would understand my thoughts when I wrote to new members:…

"Turn on the drone and watch it come to "life." Watching the Gimbal go through its self-check is almost like watching a kitten or puppy opening its eyes for the first time…"

Hasta la vista, baby.
(in Spanish, loosely means -- “See you later”, not as the "offhand joke" as used in the movie…)

The guy on here who keeps having a go at people for getting out of vlos must be selective in who he has a go at ....looks like he's happy for you to fly out of vlos ...

This event happened a long time ago already as in months.

 

[Suzygs1000]

Still, I am sure he has seen your thread .... didn't have a go at you though ...just saying ...don't really care what you do or where you fly ... and the regulations have been in force for years .....

Ian in London is where good drones go to die. I think this makes 3 or 4.
Cool story, though.

 

[Droning on and on...]

Over an active, lava-spewing volcano?

Man, I'm trying, but I can't think of a weaker case to rest this criticism on.

I’ve seen this video previously,but I’m still quite amazed that the mini3 pro lasted as long as it did.

I am amazed too actually. We can all complain about issues with our DJI equipment, but honestly, they do make a quality aircraft. This video shows it.
