Drone Recovery Mission: Crashed DJI Mavic 2 Pro on a Tiny Island | Thailand 

I brought the drone down in a dry bag! It survived the crash!!! Only had some cosmetic damage (scratches, dents, two broken propellors, of which I had extras). But it works perfectly! And I was able to fix the lens on the GoPro so that works perfectly now too!!

@@BrookeonFoot awesome! Really happy for you. And glad you got down safely.

Wow! What an amazing story! Your fortitude and resilience is unbelievable! I am so happy for you that you located your drone! And I'm glad that you're okay! Great story! Thank you for sharing

All I can say is unbelievable.

@@BrookeonFoot Awesome video. So glad you were ok. Why the hell you didn't finish the video with all the news in the comment above and about your drone is astounding after all that effort but whatever.

Hopefully you never crash yours then haha

@@BrookeonFoot the value of life more than the price of the dron . The island possible have snake and stuff so please keep in mind

@@emptyplanet yeah I would not go there due to all the animals in first place. Scorpions and shit... Taff girl

@@PrepaidKreditkarte81 I think you're so scared of scorpions : ) there are more dangerous creatures in the hidden forest . if they bit the person will die with in seconds rescue plan won't work at all . what i am trying to say is if someone looking for 101% adventure you go with adventure because some place or some moment make things remarkable . if someone go for take risk of this invaluable things I would say LIFE is more than anything

Half the fun of owning a drone is trying to find it :)

Hahahahaha thank you! But please know that if I could have rescued it from a flat empty field rather than that island, I would have 😂

I'm looking to get into photography/ videography. What is "B-roll" ?

Lol yeah, what b-roll?? 🤔

“In film and television production, B-roll, B roll, B-reel or B reel is supplemental or alternative footage intercut with the main shot. The term A-roll referring to the main footage has fallen out of use.”

@@friedpicklezzz ohh

Because it was staged for content ...

There was no risk to her life. This was a Tuesday for her.

Me too, I would have gave up the drone and have my life safe. I feel worry when she climbing up the rock with no protection.

True

😂

... Mavic 2 Pro

Visuals By Chamara hahahahhahahahaha this made me laugh out loud! Wouldn’t that be cool lol 😂 thanks for such a great comment

Dji have to recognize u than a real fanatic because u risk u life there to recovery the drone then Dji company please help this woman with the total drone recovery part Thank U

I hope the DJi hear me and solve your problem with the drone solution, total recovery ! Good luck

Vuela Alto 2020 lol I already recovered it! Don’t need their help finding it but wouldn’t mind replacement drones for when I crash it again 😂

amazing watch. Honestly if you had DJI Refresh the fee should be waived on the onus of exchanging this footage for commercial use in one of their DJI Refresh commercials or something. I can understand that why you would do this because even if its broken/damaged the Refresh cover will let you get this fixed for a small fee but the length you went to do this was incredible.. DJI TAKE NOTE of what this person says about sound tracking of the drone even after some time has passed. I actually wonder for the high end models like this it maybe should have a transponder or something we can pick up on Low Power Bluetooth or something similar.

Hahaha

I did NOT expect that

hmm that also the same model 😅

Awwww thank you!!!!!! This made me smile!!!! 😁😁😁

larsh that really sucks!! I’m sorry! It’s a terrible feeling. Almost as bad as the moment you realize you lost it haha

Spoiler alert wtf. Lol

Same Same Story ...Last year in Thailand . Near Hua Hin. I found the drone after 2 hours . Wings broken . But Work. I so Happy for you ... Never give Up ...

@@hslampe863 DJI Air Malaysia but was able to fix it in Thailand for $15 after paying for my own parts. DJI care waste of money.

hahahahahahaha 😂😂😂 thank you!

Greg, thank you for this comment. My dads name was Greg- he died a few years ago. Thanks for sending me such a kind message. I really needed this tonight. Thank you.

@@BrookeonFoot I didnt realize how sexy you were until you started cursing like a sailor. Well done on the drone rescue. I love your videos.

And a lesson and what not to do when exploring an uninhabited island.

You'll be surprised

I assume there is much going on, seeing all the little Cannabis trees growing 😄

100% thousands of locals have been there already.

There's a plastic bottle at 7:36

If they were actually looking for proof that someone visited, you would be surprised to find a gang tag somewhere up in there.

Dji refresh?

This made me laugh out loud 😂😂😂 "you're a weapon" is my new favorite compliment. seriously this comment made my day. Razor blade mountain 😂😂😂 you're fucking hilarious.

@@BrookeonFoot You stucked in a little island in Thailand I am stucked in Malaysia. Wondering how many people still stuck in a Thailand after 6 months. At least one of my friends still in Pattaya. Any plan to go back soon? I am from Texas by the way.

Mike Parker I have zero plans to go back any time soon. It’s a trainwreck back home and I’m having way too much fun over here ☺️

SluJ Plural hahahahahahaha this comment made me laugh 😂 😂😂 thank you I’m glad you enjoyed watching it 😁

Thank you! I appreciate the kind words ☺️

Chief. Finding you here is more surprising than finding a priest at a brothel. Away to your page to cool off some stress. 😁

Exactly bro. His sense of humor hasn't prevented his passion for Filmmaking. I also watch him always. He is of one of the reasons why I started sharing my Filmmaking jurney on my RU-vid channel.

@@enuksouer8273 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@africaamaze ❤❤❤❤

@@africaamaze SHE you mean..

@Shinra obv youre not in the drone community.

@Shinra Lol gg good one u win

Proud of you 👏 Next time buy the Autel Evo 2 Drone and avoid situations like that.. Crap DJI

Thank you! ☺️

Arnas Sepetys THANK YOU!!!!!!!! 😁😁😁 but I actually took those photos in the beginning of the video! Two days after I crashed the drone, I went back to the beach, swam out to the island, and took those photos with my GoPro. I was trying to recon it to put the plan together and figure out what would work best. Seeing it up close was very useful because I decided to go up the left side, rather than the right side that I originally planned. I was thinking it would be easier to climb up most of it with only a little bit in the vegetation, but when I got right up to the island, I decided it was easier to go up the other way. Then the next day I rented a kayak and paddled out there!! Thanks so much for your comment!! It was very nice and made me laugh 😆

Wow kombi life My favorite travel channel. Your here

Some epic shit

#Truth

hahahhahahahaha 😂👍

That would be me. No it wouldn't...I don't have the balls to scale a wall made of razor blades and hornets.

To be fair, I didn’t know there were hornets at the time 😂💀

Lord Simbalon wow thanks that’s such a nice compliment. Means a lot! ☺️

I think it's the nicest unwise thing that a human been can do. risking human life for what benefit? i thing you may realized it when you going to sleep that night. please don't even think do that kindof things again. thank you

Awwwwww this is such nice comment THANK YOU! 🥺🥰 not really any training per se, just a lifetime of playing outside and being a bit more "rough and tumble" because of my childhood growing up on a farm. Your comment made me smile so much - thank you. 😊

@@BrookeonFoot you totally deserve recognition for this. You give much much hope to anyone that has to go on a drone recovery mission thats for sure. Crazy story... I was flying my Autel Evo 2 yesterday at point of view park in Pittsburgh Pa. and when I was getting ready to leave I saw this person's drone hit a powerline and then go tumbling down the steep hillside where it currently is resting in a tree 40 ft high. The guy that lost it has to leave to go back to Texas this afternoon. He said it was his second lost MP2 and he had just sunk another one in the ocean 10 days before on vacation when I asked him if he had dji care refresh he told me about that incident. I told him anything is possible and I told him about the lengths you went to to recover yours. You are someone that puts your mind to something and it happens. Thats something family instills in you when you grow up. Im sure you come from a strong 💪family 😏

@@flyineyeaerialfpv5592 Haha not sure DJI will give him another one

Anton Müller hahahahaha it was my second time ever in my life rock climbing lol hahaha I just couldn’t leave it! Never leave a fallen comrade 😂

Yas

You alive man?

Respawnables 🥩🤛🏻

Except, they're remarkably cheap considering their capabilities. lol

😂😂😂 thank you

Tf is a swollen battery

Aww thanks 😊

Me too

This made me actually laugh out loud 😂

More like $2k

TheWildChris wow!!!!!! That would be terrible!!! Sorry you lost your drone IN A VOLCANO 😂😬😬😬 I’m very glad you didn’t attempt to retrieve it

Exactly😂she doesn’t even have common sense. If the drone is left on, it would obviously drain the battery and it wouldn’t respond😂

@@prod.xlr8703 I crashed my DJI Mavic Air in Malaysia and was able to fix just by Google for some parts, and literally paid the local guy for $15 to get it done. DJI Refresh is a waste of money if you know what you are doing or just slightly knowledgeable.

@@yanifeyaerts4168yes I agree

EVERYTHING cpo you’re gonna make me cry 🥺❤️ thank you!!!!! Encouragement like that really means a lot to me. I’m so glad you’re enjoying my videos 😊

This made me laugh out loud 😂😂😂

Aww wow thank you!!! So glad you enjoyed the video!! I was able to fix the GoPro for $30 so thats a win! Sorry about your drone 😔 RIP

@@BrookeonFoot Im glad and yea, luckily DJI sent me a new one, just lost whatever data I had on the memory card not retrieved. RIP old drone, hello new one :)

Where did you lost it imOUT_travelling?

A Santos aww thank you! 🙏🏼 I’m so glad you enjoyed it!!! 😁😁😁 thats so nice of you to say!

The power requirements for having a GPS module be on at all times might be a lot but maybe DJI could build a Bluetooth LE module in the drone and in crash events such as this, power down all functions except that and when it detects the controller or the phone come into range. it could start beeping. Hopefully, they'd put a secondary power source for this rated to power this mechanism for at least a few days.

TomGadgets Thank you!!! 🙏🏼😊 much time my surprise, it still works! A few scratches and cosmetic damage, and two propellers broke (I have replacements!) but everything works perfectly! I actually can’t believe it haha so fortunate :)

Pilot error?

Bluedodz 906 kind of. Technically yes since I flew it into the trees. I had it on cinematic mode which disables several sensors (which I didn’t realize) so it didn’t alert me when I got close to the trees. Also in that mode it it doesn’t have the ability to stop quickly. I didn’t realize I wasn’t at a high enough altitude to clear the island, and also didn’t know I was flying ever so slightly backwards anyway. I learned a lot from the whole experience.

@@BrookeonFoot nice experienced and good to see the whole video during the rescue mission. 👏

Bluedodz 906 glad you liked it! Wish I could have filmed the jump into the water but my GoPro was busted :(

Maybe a bird brought it there

@@lber8967 i hope bird did that..

Brace urself, in about 35 years those bottles will be worth millions and seen only in museums and private collections.

@@Analekt nope they're just bottes.

wow thank you for saying that!!! such a nice compliment!!!! 🥺😍

@@BrookeonFoot exactly my thoughts after watching this. That's why I shared it on couple of fb groups. All the best, hit 1M 👍🙏

Kumar Deepam you both are so nice, thank you for the kindness and support 💚💙

Sub from me before i watched it all....... will definitely be sharing.....

Awww thank you!!! Haha I’m so glad you enjoyed it!! ☺️

Waah fd haus nyangkut disini 😂
