That's sad. How come it didn't return to home? And why did your receiver die? At least you got it back. Have you got care refresh?

Fantastic until those last sickening moments. Are you covered under DJI Care Refresh?

Thanks for sharing, beautiful scenery and music. Also wonder what happened...

Sad to see.

Sorry for your loss.

Amazing cinematic footage.    Very sad ending.  

It must have been painful for you to realize what had happened. Sorry for your loss. Other than that sad ending, the footage was fantastic.

Thank you… it was painful to realize it was in the lake-but glad you enjoyed

Ughhh. I dont even want to click on it. This will make me very sad, won't it?

Fine. I watched it. It was a great video until the end. Where you able to find her? Sorry for your loss.

Great footage up to the end.

Great film, apart from the crashing into the water part....Hope you manage to ascertain the cause of the failure. Good luck!

That's great news, good luck!

And Lake Tahoe is the second deepest lake in the United States so there isn’t any hope of recovery.

Or where you able to recover it?

Luckily it crashed only 50 feet or so off the shore and I was able to get it before the currents took it away. This was a huge success, but I learned something important...Lake Tahoe is freezing even in late October

It’s even freezing in July we go up every summer and the water temperature is always around 60

oh that's sad
