Hello Everyone,

I lost my AVATA on 28th Oct. While flying over the waterfalls, I got a warning message informing about "High Wind". And within no time, it just drifted without any control and landed in a nearby mountain which was not accessible then.

Tried going up and down of the falls. I could easily go up and down once without any warning. When I tried for the 2nd time, warning came and I feel that there was no wind as such since everything was calm. But, drone just drifted away (could be any fault in the drone??)  and got stuck in some bush.

I have the flight log uploaded here
https://www.phantomhelp.com/LogViewer/0YZ2Y38IWLTMWTS8IIH0/

But, I do not get the exact last received co-ordinates in this to try if I can trek and try my luck in finding the drone. I checked the "find my drone" feature when connected to lost drone and saved the coordinates. But, that is wrong data as it is showing somewhere 50kms away!


I need helo in getting the last known co-ordinates and probable search areas based on other factors if any

Thanks for the reply.

I do not have DJI care refresh service.
Still if I can report something, let me know under which category.

Ohh .. glad to know that you found your drone

I think the last known in my case would be right one as the drone was in contact from around 50% odd till 0% at the same place. Drone could not be put into turtle mode or fly as it was stuck inside a bush

Also you should be able to the last position and last frames before crash directly in the DJI-Fly App.
