LOLLLLL!!!! Best comment on the internet!! This was the first thing I thought of too... how the thing was still operating underwater... means now I'm not so scared about flying my Air 2S in the rain anymore hahaha
@@dansearle7024 Another guy flew it with a water hose spraying directly on the drone for a long time. Continued working until he landed it. Obviously, you shouldn't fly it in the rain, but it's a lot more resilient than I expected.

Flying backwards will get you in trouble too. That's pretty amazing that the cam is still working under water! I crashed my Mini 2 in the water one time (it hit a twig and went down into the creek) Submerged in in rice for 5 ays and it worked like new.
Sorry you crashed. As you found out, taking your focus off your drone for even a second can cost you. Don’t feel too bad, I smashed a $7000 DJI inspire two into the side of a skyscraper. This happened the day I got the drone back from being repaired. 😊I cried for a long time.
I just got my DJI mini 4 pro. The image is so amazingly sharp and colorful. Baby steps for me too! I played with a few of those garbage E88 toy drones, so I have some idea of what to do,
Not cool... We all make mistakes, we need to learn from them. I thought it was a great flight until the end of course. One thing I Don't do is fly sideways near trees. I do when at the ocean, other than that, I better be higher than the tallest object around. I'm not going to beat you down because of a mistake. We all do. Just remember your surroundings for the next time. Take care, and good luck. 👍 👍 👍
Dji coats the boards with a water proof sealant. You can actually fly them in the rain. Its not recommended but can be done without hurting the drone. My guess is he recovered the drone and it still works.
Hey bud, sorry for your loss. That's the worry when flying sideways. I dove my Mavic Mini-1 twice in fresh water. I immediately took it inside and stuck a hair dryer up it's butt for an hour. I then put in a fresh battery and flew like nothing happened. Thanks for sharing!
On similar case scenarios, a Mini 4 PRO will save many drone pilots from a tragic loss like this. Thank you for sharing this as well as for the incredible capability of this tiny peace of advanced technology to survive underwater.
Would the mini 3 pro have avoided this? I understand that it doesn't have horizontal sensor detection, but would the peripheral version of the sensors have picked up the branches and stopped?
The mini 3 (pro) has no sideways sensors so it will not pick this up. The Mavic 3 (now called "classic") has 360 degree sensors, but still has trouble picking up those thin branches so it might crash just as well.
Sorry to see this disaster Joseph. I’ve lost one in the sea and flew sideways into a tree, luckily I recovered the second drone. Did you manage to recover yours from the lake?
Incredible how this Mini drone comtinued to record submerged, I guess freshwater? Hopedully you recovered and learnt that flying sideways without having good awareness of the drones surroundings is hazardous⚠️😲 I've added your channel, hopefully you'll connect with another Mini drome pilot?
Oh wow! 😶🌫⛅I wasn't expecting that much footage at the end! did you have to download that from UAS or did you have an SD card in your controller? I've lost at good amount of propellers learning to pilot and running into trees. Speaking of nature, what a beautiful ravine! ☁😶🌫☁😶🌫✈
Flying sideways will get you every time, same thing happened to me a couple of months ago but luckily landed upside down in the grass and only broke two props .
If you have the REFRESH you can file using the flyaway. You’ll get a replacement within a week. The charge will be a small amount because DJI isn’t getting a drone back I’ve done it a few times before with no problem
Not necessarily; I have refresh- used it once for a crash and they sent me a new drone, no charge. Then, I crashed it into the river filming kayakers, they wanted me to file a flyaway so I did. That one cost me 500 bucks.
So what I'm gathering is get the "refresh". I'm looking to get my first drone soon. How much extra is it to get the " refresh " and what exactly is it ?
Wife and kids coming to see daddy fly but .. drone is gone scuba diving. I hope you got dji refresh package. Also in the near future that you got a new drone , kindly fidget with the settings on the controls .... get a smoother set of settings on the sticks and movement and then your panning or side moves would be smoother and slower depending on the shot you wanna have. Map out your area to fly so at least you may be aware of the possibilities....
Looked shallow… Did you locate it and fetch it out? I crashed mine in a river last month (flew without GPS signal and the wind bopped it laterally into a branch… that’s my story anyway 😉)… it was submerged for 5 minutes and I was able to get it working again just fine after a week of heaters, fans, silica gel packs, and waiting.
Hi as a fellow drone owner (Mavic Air 2S And Mavic 3) and a Part 107 licensed pilot I’m so sorry this happened and hope you were able to get down there and recover it. I feel for you and unlike some of these idiots on here would never make fun of what happened. All the best and again I hope you got it back.
well damn soo sorry for ur drone u got some great footage tho. u know what i do when im around water i hover and spin around so i see where to fly because that thing is literally over $1k it hurts to just see it under water....
Did you not know that if you operate any DJI drone above water that water is MAGNETIC to DJI drones, they instantly become attracted to it, either directly or by the other thing that attracts them trees!
So there are some 2 part hyperbolic sprays you guys can probably use to temporarily waterproof your camera internals by taking the drone apart and coating them or dipping the boards in resin and letting them dry lol
I get the impression you were flying sideways and there are no sensors on the side. Is this correct? I'm interested because I have ordered a drone and am watching videos on it and trying to learn including by mistakes. Thanks for the video and I'm sorry it crashed.
You are right, the DJI Mini 3 doesn´t have any avoid obstacle sensors but downwards. The Mini 3 Pro has forward, aft and downward sensors (they may detect obstacles up on some angles tho), but not side sensors. To have 360º protection youn need to upgrade to the Mavic 3 series. On many models sensors are off when flying in Sport Mode, so ir really doesn´t matter...
You were getting a great shot, you were in a really good place. The side sensors would make the mini 3 pro a perfect drone! I hope you did the dji care refresh for your mini 3 pro 😅
You won’t get a new one, maybe a discount. You were flying sideways, that isn’t covered even if you’re flying sideways just a little bit (I discovered the hard way)
You can fly sideways no worries with that, but you should know your route ... the obstacles around your path and if possible fly with a line of sight .. I guess he got glued onto the scenery that the drone was taking and likely forgot to observe his environment as the mini 3 got no side sensors ...
From all drone crashes I’ve seen 99 % of crashes are from not paying attention to surroundings and what you can’t see because you didn’t check out first before just getting shots

Did you get it out of the water? You have to be very cautious when flying close to objects especially sideways. I have both mini 3 and mini 3 pro I love both drones. I’m uploading a video from my mini 3 now from a flight across town today. Great little drone
You can fly sideways, or you can drop below visual line of sight when headed for obstacles. But you can't fly sideways, drop below line of sight AND be headed for obstacles, and have your drone too. LOL

It was going sideways that killed it with no sensors there, many the mini 4 will have all around sensors (hopefully)
lol ❤
Guessed right it does
Lmaoooo ngl you fly that thing like a jackass man right on

How much was it to fix?
Wow, taking a big hit there, as a novice it does not fill me with confidence when even you pro guys crash drones, baby steps for me.
Oh God , i would hate myself for that one 😂😂
Dios mioooo. Eso si duele en el alma. Solo despegar un Inspire me haría sudar y temblar. Mis condolencias
I just got my DJI mini 4 pro. The image is so amazingly sharp and colorful. Baby steps for me too! I played with a few of those garbage E88 toy drones, so I have some idea of what to do,
I'm surprised the electronics didn't short out as soon as it hit the water. Pretty good on the "water resistant" scale.
Not cool... We all make mistakes, we need to learn from them. I thought it was a great flight until the end of course.
One thing I Don't do is fly sideways near trees. I do when at the ocean, other than that, I better be higher than the tallest object around.

Flying carelessly and not paying attention to the surroundings results in a crash.
Lol gordon
So what happened to the collision avoidance?
@jameshatchett8095 there's no side collision detection, only front back and up down
@jameshatchett8095 this is where reading and understanding the aircraft manual is helpful. This drone does not have side collision avoidance.
Thanks Captain Obvious! You saved us again.
You need to be more careful when flying sideways😢😢
I'm surprised the drone still filmed up underwater! Hopefully, you recovered the drone, those pesky trees 🌳
Must’ve found it to get the SD from it
@@precisionflight2296 Not necessarily, it is possible to screen record the footage and my Mini 2 records a lower quality video feed to my device!

@@MobileGamingLegendz Things that can be taken out in the rain can't always be submerged.
@@CanItAlready Totally correct I should of said water resistant. Good flag.
I just felt a great disturbance, as if millions of DJI drone flyers cried out in anguish...
The underwater scene was great. You better return the amphibious drone to Inspector Gaget when you are done. I heard he's looking for it.
I'm on the case Penny ! 😂😂😂😂
so did it get replaced?

Who ever lost a drone feel the horror of seeing this 🙂🙂
Damn, I didn't know my drone can be used underwater...
You just exchange those Heli props with the U-boats props from Dij, and go for a dive...its amazing

that was a really stupid thing to do lol ive subbed you just to see more crashes .thanks for entertaining me
Oh no I hope its OK it looked like you were in sports mode with no obstacle avoidance turned on.
The mini 3 doesn't have obstacle avoidance. Only the mini 3 pro
No obstacle avoidance in sport mode.
I’m sure all drone operators have experienced a drone crash, live and learn my friend. I hope your next flight is a safe and enjoyable one. 👌
I can confirm this. I crashed my first drone in a tree & it was stuck up there for hours, beeping, & probably disturbing half the neighbourhood. 😐
Did you get it back?

Makes for a good fish scaler too?
Incredible it stayed on…I have crashed now twice into a tree and also a waterfall and almost instantly it stops recording once it hits the water
Flying sideways will get you every time, same thing happened to me a couple of months ago but luckily landed upside down in the grass and only broke two props .
My air 2 smashed into a building on its second flight thanks to flying sideways
I though the new Mini had collision control?? I got the mini 2 was thinking of getting mini 3?
2:00 that is still Amazing picture quality.... 😮
Sorry to see your drone crash... Did it work after accident?
This is why I hesitant to buy any drone without the side sensors, but those who have it is so expensive, meeh
Is that croton on the Hudson? I flew that bridge in the fall.
Nice underwater footage

Im pretty sure he got it back for he has the video in 4k, (meaning its not a cache file). Or idk
Yeah i bet the nice boatsman under the bridge helped the dude out, hopefully
Ouch. Not sure if you were flying a Mini3 or a Mini3Pro, but the Mini3Pro doesn’t have any side sensors, and of course the Mini3 has none.
Is Loch Raven Reservoir?
Just relieved no one was hurt, looked mighty close to that road given the height.

Never fly sideways no sensors in sideways moves on the Mini 3, fly only forwards or backwards if you want obstacle avoidance

oh no!
Great location though!
is this the mini 3 or the mini 3 pro?
No VLOS, no side-sensors, tree-branches... this would have happed with either model.

yeah got way too close to the tree there lol
You can fly sideways, or you can drop below visual line of sight when headed for obstacles. But you can't fly sideways, drop below line of sight AND be headed for obstacles, and have your drone too. LOL

Hope it had coverage
So you kept the drone 2 months that's it ?
Dji mini pro 3 har ikke sensorer på sidene kun fremover bakover og nedover
Remember! There is NO Obstacle Avoidance when traveling Sideways!
and the Mini 3 (NOT the pro) has NO sensors
There is actually, it's called VLOS.
Okay but, are underwater drones a thing?
it happens ,I lost mine in the sea a mavic pro ,I kept the video running till the end ,did the drone work again ,take care
Poor drone. Hope you have your insurance
Sorry for your loss.
