I Crashed My Drone into that Cliff a Week Ago... Let's Try and Recover it with GPS!

- Last week when I was shooting the test drive in my Range Rover Sport with fancy new exhaust... my DJI Mavic Pro drone went rogue and backed itself into a cliff across the canyon from where I was shooting... ugh!
Of course, it was late in the afternoon and after spending several hours stumbling around the loose hillsides in my Vans sneakers and getting soaking wet in the river... I had to abandon the search after the sun set and it got dark. I was able to capture the GPS coordinates in the DJI Go app before the drone battery died.
There the drone would have to sit for the rest of the week due to some work obligations I was lucky to get.
A big rainstorm was on it's way to the area, and this Sunday was my last chance to attempt a drone rescue before thing would be ruined for certain.
So I copied the GPS coordinates into my @onXOffroad app and just followed the blue dot in the direction of the drone to the best of my abilities.
This video is the documentation of that attempt.

@@AutoEdits What can I say? It's therapy.😆🤣
That app is pretty amazing!
AWESOME! So glad you found it! Been there and done that. Very rewarding to put your hands on what you thought was gone foreverrrrrr.
It really is!
Awesome you found your drone, Jason!! What seems like a simple video, you’re small journey definitely wasn’t, and yet this video is entertaining to watch!!! Thanks for sharing this with us all, cheers!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That’s rad!!!
HA! I was happy to find that darn thing.
You the man! Nice work.
AND! A much Happier Video than the Oil Cooler Video 🤔😢👍
Great video, sorry to hear about pinto. I am sure he is chasing his frisbee in dog heaven. Have a great day.
❤
Jason, Rob said, "Is he nuts?" When we watched the exhaust video we commented on the drone footage. So glad you recovered your trusty drone. But, are you nuts???
Maybe a little 🤷♂️
Now that’s what I call a successful search and rescue mission! Glad you were able to recover it! I have a DJI mini pro and would HATE to lose it like that. They are not cheap lol thanks for the adventure. I was breathing heavily for you 🤣
HA!
Nice little side adventure!
Yes it was! Thanks for taking a moment to come along!!!!!!
Good Job man ! And good boots 🥾!
Thanks! I go those in Moab a few years ago and they do pretty good.
Awesome video. I like the change of pace
Glad you liked it!
that was a fun break from car stuff, cool video
Thanks!!!
You are a brave man to send it back across the ravine after losing it in the same area. 🤟😎
🤙
Now I need a beer, that was intense! Kudos for the successful recovery 😊
Thank you!
Super Cool
Yeah!
Oh, to be young and slim again…..!
Nice save! I spent way too much time searching for drones when I was doing fpv racing and freestyle 😂 lost a few batteries though...
HA!
Lucky, mine ended up in a river. I did fish it out though.
Dang! I seem to recall that post on instagram 😂
I would have tried to go get it also. Nice little adventure. The shot at the end showing trash strewn down the hill is slightly depressing though.
I agree, it bummed me out as well and I commented on it a bunch while I was shooting but since most of you aren't the culprits, I cut it out to keep the video light.
Oh wow!!!
Off-Road walking also called “Hiking” 😂
Might want to upgrade your suspension and maybe regear. 😅 not sure they make parts anymore for your particular model.
LOL
HA!!!
Treaking Poles, Treaking Poles!!!
😂
Sorry to hear about Pinto....
Wooooooohooooooo you found it 🎉
YEP!
Nice!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Have you thought about putting one of them apple tags on it. It will show you exactly where it is and it will beep. I'm glad you found it, but you made me tired just watching lol
HA! Good suggestion!
@AutoEdits the reason I mentioned it was because I watched a video of a guy who had his mower stolen, and he had one on it, and it helped the cops find it
So sorry about Pinto 😢 I lost My baby also her Name Angel missing her so much . This is first get train on adventure and rescue glad found drone onex awesome app .
Thank you and best thoughts to you as well.
2:15 Pinto is following
❤
LETS GOOOOOO!
Yeah buddy!
New video idea. Finding interesting things on onx or google maps and driving/finding them. Theres a similar channel called the trek planner. Youd do it better and can wheel your jeep some.
Keep up the good work, your my go to for jeep videos. Same model. Just less budget 😂
Yeah!
Sorry (not sorry) to see that you crashed your drone. Glad it made for a good video :)
Glad you came along for the adventure!
I’m exhausted!
👍👍
Do you know what the wind rating is on that drone?
Do you still have RAM Johnson? Would love to see more vids of it and what it’s actually capable of.
Sold it a few years ago. It's in a really good home.
cool! what model dji is that?
It's a 6 year old Mavic Pro
When u go on hikes do u carry anything for protection???
I don't hike regularly so no but when I go far into the back country in my Jeep I do 👍
Are you going to EJS this year?
No plans at the moment.
Which drone is that?
It's an original mavic pro from six years ago.
😂 👏
😳🧗♂️👍
Success!! That was a fun adventure to go along with. I fear many folks would have left the drone to its fate. Glad it all worked out! Merci
danggggggg you are strong🦾🦾
😂👍🎉🎶💕👀👴🚜🤡🎂😎🏆
