Is this the film location for Kattegat in vikings?

Glad you had refresh and got it replaced but I can never understand why people would do a range test over water as it is a recipe for disaster especially in windy conditions lol

Does your Drone identify as They or Them?

I was doing a range test a few months ago. On the way back I had a doubt that my battery is low for the return. so I just turned off the video recording for lowering battery consumption. and it worked well 😉

Given that you crashed in salt water, your best shot at recovery would have been to make sure the battery was removed, then dip it in fresh water to dissolve (remove) all the salt. Than let it all sit and dry out for a couple of days.

I've been in a similar situation a time or two. I know it's a bit late now but in hindsight when you realized you couldn't make it all the way back to the launch point you should have made way towards the nearest land, like off to the right where the power plant looking facility was located. The drone could have easily made it to the shore there & you could have retrieved the bird. Care Refresh is the bomb. I buy the 2-year plan with every drone. Rarely need it but when you do the Express option is awesome.

You could have switched to N mode and probably returned it home. It uses less battery on N.

I like turtles 🐢

FRAAAAAAAAAAAST!

Next time wash it in warm destillated water and rthen put it in the ovenn foor 12 hours on 50°C.. i. Do this with DSLR and lenses… and they work… Rice is horrible and dusty

This was painful to watch 🙄

Actually you fly to sea area need to check the wind and battery is about 50% and ready to return and land I will return probably 39 % , but I never thought 2 % still very last. I flying with manual mode more power consume keep in mind don’t always return >30% is 1 way ticket

As a general rule, nothing survives salt water. If you had crashed into fresh water you might have been able to dry it out but salt water is like acid. it begins to oxidate anything metal it touches. Once it penetrates the inside of the drones circuitry, it's already too late. Like others on this post I was saying the same thing while I watched your video. Why did you not turn right and go to the nearest land mass? Let's say that that building in the background is a power station and off limits to the public. You showed us that later, at low tide, the coast is accessible. Even if a rain storm came through, the drone would have only suffered from fresh water damage, but with no salt. Your chances of drying it out and returning to flight status would be very good. I have had great success taking apart water saturated electronics and using rubbing alcohol to clean everything, and then using a hair dryer to evaporate the alcohol. I then put everything back together and well ah, The item snaps back to life with a new battery installed. And also, it never hurts to just ask people. You could have landed your drone on the land and simply asked the building personal if you could retrieve your drone. Most of the time, I've found people to be very accommodating and even if they said no, it's no greater loss than dumping it in the ocean. I will give you credit for one thing though. You didn't give up. You stayed on the controller until the very end. I was quite surprised when the drone suddenly went from a hover to allowing you to go past zero. You actually had just enough time to make it to the nearest land mass but you chose to go to the home point instead. You had two choices. Nearest land mass or Homepoint. You made the wrong choice but hey, we've all done that at one time or another. Anyway your video was a real nail biter. I'm glad you got another drone. You now know the limits of its capabilities. With smaller drones I don't even fly if the wind is strong. I pay attention to such things now. Cheers!

Bro online order kaise kare

When. You notice you cannot make it put it tail wind go normal mode power to 75% and aim for the more direct to the shore and pray

heres a tip always be at least 75 metres in the air so when your landing itll take longer meaning youll have more time to get to the shore

He had land close off to the right if he would have diverted to the right and landed on solid ground he could have then retrieved it.

I’m only getting max of 500 m before I lose connection to googles is that normal?

testing on the sea. why man why

Use dehumidifier

What a video. I felt physically sick watching that. Glad you had care refresh.

6:25 Here you had to go to the right, towards the nearest shore. You had to save the drone, a new distance record, you can do it another time. 🤔🤔🤔

Better than most movies. Emotions, suspense, frustrations.

Ooooh I’d be so scared to fly through them😂

Who does range tests over water. Twit.

que wey tan pen...ejo debio dejar que el drone regresara automaticamente, cuando lo hace es a una velocidad en lq que la bateria dura mas tiempo

If you ever put anything good in salt water, rinse if off thoroughly with fresh warm water, which will remove all Of the salt. Then completely disassemble everything as much as possible. Use compressed air to dry as much as possible. Then place with rice in a sealed container for the rice to have full drying effect. After that, there’s still a chance it won’t work, but it will give you the best chance of it ever working again.

Man that little drone held on for dear life. Was this test flight done with stock antennas?

It should get better battery life and distance in normal mode.

epic footage bro subbed n liked :) cheers from australia

Also what could of stopped the motors turning is the magnets in the motors attract magnetic sand... noticed this when landing drone on beach , it just sucks that sht into the bell magnets and grinds em.

Lessons learnt :)

Tips for when you crash into the ocean, don't dry it right away, presume you don't have proper tool or any experience in electronic repair. First, remove the battery, soak the drone into fresh water, let it sit there for 30 min (change the water 2-3 times) then dry it outside for a bout 1-2 hours. Find a sealable container, put the drone and alot of silica gel in together, seal the container and let it sit there for 2-3 days. If you know how to disasemble things, just take the drone apart, wash every part with distiled water then clean them with contact cleaner spray, let them dry for a day and you good to go.

I think if you would of rinse it off with water way before drying it in rice it would of worked fine but it dried up with the salt water and destroyed the motors.

You should of rinsed it off with fresh water then let dry

Distance test flying right over the open ocean plus strong windy conditions... perfect recipe for loosing your drone... you should have done this test over uninhabited terra firma... in that case - despite all of the other mistakes made - you would have had a fair chance (in fact, for sure) to find the drone either on top of a tree (worst case scenario) or somewhere among the bushes or on the ground and the avata would still be alive and happily flying... anyway, sorry for not being able to resurrect the avata... fortunately you were covered by dji care. Good luck next time, best regards from Molnári, Hungary.

Don't Fly To Ocean Way Brother. Just Fly At Beach.

Warm tip..... Dont range test over water. EVER! be well

Hopefully this will convince you never to do range "tests" over water again? Especially not down to 50% SOC on a windy day.

Flying on waterbody for drone range test is stupidity

You would have easily have made it back if you flew normal mode, also why didn’t you head towards land much closer and placed it in a tree along the coast, oh well you will know for next time that the normal mode is the most efficient way to fly back by leaps and bounds. Sports mode consumes battery almost twice as fast as normal mode.

i dont mean to sound rude, but what the fuck did you expect flying it over a body of water

ok you did eventually

turn down your music

why didn't you just fly to the right the land was soo much closer?

Why would you not fly with the wind towards the land 😂

Pretty cool. Get flight

You could have tried to reach that land on your right when you had 20% and gotten a drone from there

Why would you do a range test over water?

Just like fireworks, get the biggest one, set it off and hope you enjoy 😱
