Fell out of the sky after it lost a propeller. Four rescue squads have attempted retrieving but that hill is hell on earth. I'm already back in the US and droneless (sniffs). Hey! If you live in Jaco and feel like going on a mission let me know!
One of my employees found a crashed drone in Livonia, MI. No owner name on it, and can't find anywhere to look up a serial number. Was a week or so ago. Have this listed on craigslist as well to find the owner. Thanks!
I have had my drone for only a few weeks, as it was a Christmas present. I am down in Naples, FL at my place in a residential tower near the beach. The tower has a slight U-shape to it, and I found that I couldn't get a proper compass readout when I tried taking off from there. I went around...

I was flying backwards getting footage of land, when djigo crashed (nothing new); I immediately hit RTH, then worked on getting djigo back open (which previously worked - was usually able to reconnect without...
Recently, my Brother in law was out hunting with a group of friends and they came across a crashed drone. Believing it was the as mine, he brought it to me to see if I wanted it. The body has one bent arm, and all of the motors are seized up. It has a gimble that I assume was made for a...
I have not used this so this is not a recommendation, but if you have lost your drone (or found one) then you may want to know about this website:

I attempted a risky and very stupid flight today.
I drove in the car with a relative while we flew the drone overhead. We kept going for miles until there we passed by with a forest on our left, thick, tall trees that go on forever. Then, all of a sudden, it read, Aircraft Disconnected, and I...

In the event of a fly away the Marco Polo tracker will take over and provide on screen directional info as well as signal strength (1-100) indication.
On flat terrain you can expect 2+ miles of range.
Take a look at our video of a very wooded rural locate at...
Bought yesterday a new p4 and finally got to fly it today. Calibrated the compass and IMU (firmwares up to date according the app) and the whole first flight in beginner mode went well except a little twitching of the bird while steering with the right stick. This did not bother me since i hadd...
I'm trying to figure out if I have any options with DJI. I have a Phantom 3 Pro that I bought in November 2015. I was flying out behind my house and out over the trees. I had a full charge on one of my batteries. I took off at full throttle out about 1/4 mile over the trees and lost my bird. It...
I was out flying my Phantom 4 last night and got to around 2000 feet away with 80% percent battery. At this point it lost connection and I assumed it would automatically RTH. After waiting for a while it never returned and I got no more video feed. What I have read is that it possibly got stuck...
On Tuesday, August 30th, I ended up losing signal with a return to home altitude that was too low and caused my drone to crash on a building (160 ft high). I met a security guard who was cool enough to go out of his way to check the roof where he is not allowed to be and has confirmed the drone...
I everybody,
This week end I've crashed / sink my drone into a lake because:
- Since we where moving, I've lost orientation while flying and had forgot to designate a watcher so nobody warned me that I was flying directly toward water and heard a "sploush" ... **** ! I've lost of the bird...
I was running a litchi mission and when it got near 2nd point i notice the drone showing on screen went to the point very fast and then showed drone from same point agian going normal speed to point 2 and then just lost signal.
The mission was over a land site that i dont have access to but...
Hello, I fly over a forested area and lost my P4 into the thick underbrush of the forest floor. I was able to find it within a short time by reviewing the flight recording, but it was a lucky stroke, mainy because of the thickness of the underbrush. As it was I had to tramp through poison oak...
Hi guys,
I just had my drone stolen in Miami. It's a Phantom 3 Professional. Is there any way I can trace it through the GPS? Can the drone be traced as soon as somebody connects it to a computer, based on the serials numbers I can provide?
Thank you !

My P3P was lost yesterday and I am fairly sure it will be unrecoverable.
I was flying over a lake at a height of 124ft and went from completely stable flight to seeing water on FPV and lost signal 2 seconds later. During that 2 seconds I noticed a warning pop up about max motor RPM and...
Someone found a phantom in their backyard on Saturday evening, Feb 20, 2016 in Simi Valley, California. If you believe it is yours, PM your FAA certificate # to verify and I'll put you in touch with them to retrieve it.

It has been three days since my brand new phantom 3 arrived and after 5 flights, decided to go to this nice lake in the south of France where i live. Before taking off, as...
