Just after 6 PM today (5/11) I found a DJI Mini 2 Ultra Light 249g in the middle of Holly Thorn Trace (Holly Springs, NC 27540) between Trevor Ridge and upper Pyracantha. It is in good repair and the camera is responding. It acts as if it went out of range and auto landed. Waiting for you to claim it.  The battery ran down so I connected it to my lap top. Looks like about 50% charge. (5/11)


Also posted in Braxon Village Facebook page and the Holly Springs Facebook page.


Does anyone have an idea of how far it may have blown down wind?


What is the range?

Drone returned. Owner reached out to me on Facebook.

Hello there davidinatl. Good day and thank you for giving out these information. It is great that the owner of the DJI Mini 2 got his lost DJI drone back. Again, thank you for your great work in finding the owner and have nice day.

He's one lucky guy. Hope he bought you a drink in the bar

Difficult to say.......theres one young guy on Youtube posted a video about his Mini 2 which travelled 10km before force landing. he still had signal and found it using its last known position on the map. His wasnt a lost drone though, as he deliberately flew it that for for a range test.

Wait a minute! That is my drone, it flew all the way from Africa on the jet stream   

Glad to hear the owner got his drone back!
