What did you crash today?

Yup, or you could make a bungee rig. Or shoot it from your bow (jk)
Yeah...I gotta keep thinking on it..I might just have him throw it from underneath and then I will only start up the motor AFTER it well out of his hands...PS: that motor has a LOT of power!

Storch. Oh well, no tears. Poor performing ARF, rather build my own anyway. Was a challenge to find in the soybean field, needed help from the club drone to find it.

OUCH! I was videoing some geese with their goslings down at our pond yesterday with my DJI mini 3 pro, and the male kept following me allow so I was keeping my distance....I turned away from him and went to leave and he flew up out of the water and attacked my drone!...Knocking it into the pond!

I went down there and got into a kayak and then I saw it on the bottom of the pond (Lights were still on) after some dredging with a rake I was able to get it (THANKFULLY it was only about 5ft down...instead of like 18ft!😆😆)

The lights were still on when I pulled it out ans ripped the battery out as soon as I got it out...But the gimbal felt gritty and there was water dirt all the way up in it, so i took the whole thing apart and its drying right now after I washed every part down with distalled water followed with isopropyl alcohol...what do you think? Will it live?!

Here was my last view before it kit the water😂
