      I don't have a drone, hoping to get one soon though!

      I've never flown a drone, but I would most certainly crash it 😂

      Nowhere near as fun, but I was trying out a relatives drone at a nearby field, and we got some decent exercise running after it!

      I'd be afraid of flying one. I'd just crash it or break something with it lol

    For the next time flying ace Irwin could tie a fishing line with a cork to the drone and glue those to drone with water soluble stuff. Some time after dive the cork comes to surface for you to do the rescue operation easier.

    • @keatondauffing1166

      Might affect its flight capabilities, but not a bad brainstorm!!!

    I want to say thank you to the Irwin family. I've been a fan of Steve's since the beginning, the first time I saw him on the discovery Channel. I still have t shirts. Its wonderful to see all your love for wildlife. His passion lives on. Now I'm your fan, thank you. Love to you all.

  • @LiamApilado
    @LiamApilado 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Top effort! Handy tip: you can auto cache videos on Dji drones so that it saves to your phone as you take the video.
    So the next time your drone falls into croc infested waters, you should still have the footage even if you can't retrieve it

  • @_poppypowell_

    You know when the drone first fell in the water....I was thinking the connection problem happened then. Not after the crash. That's why it didn't work after the crash, it was the original problem. might have to contact the manufacturer on that one.

  • @keatondauffing1166

    Another way to fix electronics that have been in the water is to fill a ziploc, or whatever bag is big enough, with isopropyl alcohol, then put your electronic in it for the night, pull it out the next morning and let it dry. The alcohol pushes the water out, then it evaporates. We used to do that when I worked at Verizon.

  • @kimhollenbeck6954
    @kimhollenbeck6954 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love your drone robert and I was shocked and surprised that you crashed it into the water.Happy to hear that it survived its dunking into the water and after what it went through that it is still working.

    Hey! i know you likely wont see this, but i'm a photography drone enthusiast, i saw that you got a dji mavic 2, just wanted to let you know there is now a mavic 3 out! (standard version or cine version) it is really good and would be great for your photography! (dont fly it into the water though)

    Maybe if you could be able to remove the excess rice inside the drone, it could fly again. I've tried it in my drone as well and it worked

  • @realistindenial

    A few years ago while visiting Tennessee, I decided to fly my drone (DJI Mavic Pro) to a water tower out in the distance. I reached the water tower and took some spectacular "Point of Interest" video, but I lingered too long and the drone ran low on battery power during the return trip back to the home point. The drone automatically landed itself and I thought it was lost for good. However using the longitude and latitude coordinates recorded in the flight path, I drove to the last known location and found the drone sitting in an open field. Lesson learned: The drone calculates how much power it needs to return home safely so always follow the drone's battery warnings!

  • @ronaldog3525

    The old put it in rice trick works every time! People used to think the rice absorbs the moisture from the electronics but what actually happens is that when you cover it with rice and leave it out overnight, asians smell the rice and come in and eat the rice and fix the broken item whilst they are there lol

    First of all Robert your abit "nuts" to put your arm in the water let alone lean over the boat like that ! 😩🤣 My first attempt to fly a drone was in my son's house After leaving marks on the ceiling it landed on the fan which was working at the time We laughed watching it "ride" the fan 🤣 I bought a drone for my grandson and my son was showishowing how to use it The wind came up and took it by the time he went to the back of the house which backed onto a reserve the drone was lost never to be seen again 😥
