The river Leine. I wanted to get one more shot before moving on. Had a slightly anxious feeling flying right without taking a look first. 20 min hike over the bridge to the other side, searching near the river, climbing a tree, getting scratched by thorns, about to give up. Then I see it one meter from my stuff on the ground.The only damage was a propeller.

wow, that was lucky ending then, great that it was no more damage.

Stay safe

Whoops!  Nearly a disaster there.  Glad you recovered the drone with little damage.

Yes, I was very lucky. The "find my drone" function showed it in the water!

Yeah. Normally I'm too anxious but not this time...

Very lucky you were able to recover the drone.  Keep flying and stay safe.

Glad you managed to retrieve it Depp - good footage

Looks like it mate - glad it ended OK. I did sonething similar with my MA2 a month ago - I wasn't so lucky... Bought a new one three days later!

this is the time when you appreciate bugs in the software

Boring but safer

Yes, very true.

True. Maybe the 3 Pro will have side sensors that work all the time.
On the same day I flew into a tree and the sensors didn't work. Well, keeps the heart rate up ;-)

Never trust the sensors.
Rely on your eyes
(in fact, I put the sensors off so I don't feel 'safe')

Lucky fellow. Good footage.

Lucky fellow. Good footage.

Me too. Seemed to have been stuck in China, but now it made it to Amsterdam. So it can‘t be much longer.

You know the old song   "Straighten up and fly right"   but not into a tree!

Glad you did not need to go fishing for mavic, wrong time of the year for that.

Don't know that song.
Still had to walk for 20 min. and  thought I had to climb a tree.
Yeah, swimming would have made my day ;-)
