Video of DJI M300 RTK operating in winter storm with a parachute recovery system testing:

Hello there. Good day and thank you for posting this interesting video here at DJI Forum. Thank you for your support and fly safe always.

Looks like it went ok!

Yes. We build the parachute recovery system.

When testing, we always want to have a built-in safety factor. This means we get to fly in "fun" conditions.

Good to hear!

Very interesting. It's impressing that it deployed even after the drone rolled.

Very impressive.  Is there a spring or something that causes the parachute to come out with force, or is it just deployed by catching the wind?

spring deployment.

We have a Parachute Pod that houses the spring and parachute. Photo below is our system for the M200
