I got my drone tangled in a tree. Good news is I got it really high

Any plans for a rescue?

Wait for a strong wind

Bugger to hear Floyd75, I've become quite adept at throwing sticks into trees myself!

cheers,

Good thing they’re only $100. At that price they are a throwaway.

I wish I could afford to throw away $100 like that.

I’m hoping for a really strong wind!

How high is it? Can't you get a ladder or call someone?

Floyd75 · Jan 18, 2019

It’s about 30 feet up

That's not high at all. Just get a ladder and a broom.

I can try when it’s not too icy and cold

Worst case scenario blame @volate!lo if you were flying with TelloFPV ??

Floyd75 · Jan 18, 2019

That makes sense

Glad i’m not alone. I just wanted a closer look at a tall tree and Tello panicked. Charged straight in. too high to save but close enough to taunt me every day hanging there. Will wait to replace at end of the month to teach myself a lesson

They are only toys it’s not like losing a Mavic or the Inspire. Lose one of those and you’ll feel bad.

I lost a Phantom 4 Pro on 11/30/2017. Was staring at it when a gust of wind moved it 1 meter and it hit a bamboo stick sticking on top of a bamboo forest, never to be seen again. I still cry at night.
