I love this drone's size-to-weight ratio and its overall quality. During my recent flight, I was less cautious and as I was maneuvering to the left, the drone accidentally caught a branch, causing it to fall from a height of 18 meters. I located the drone about 5-6 minutes after the fall and then left it in a container of rice for five days.

Good job! Also good job of documenting the repairs! My Mini 2 spent about an hour underwater when it went down in a lake. After it was rescued by a small boat, I took out the battery and used canned air to blow all the water out. Then I stood it on its side in front of a fan for a couple of hours. No repairs were needed, and it worked just fine after that. These are tough little guys!

@@VolvoCamperLife Yes, battery was discharged. The low battery signal was already beeping when it went down. Actually, I had the floats installed and I was practicing landing on the water and taking off. It was in the air when the low battery signal started, and I stupidly thought I'd make one more lake landing before bringing it in. But when I tried to take off ahain, the surface tention, and the weight of the floats was causing it to have trouble taking off, and it just flipped over and sunk when the floats came off. It was about 150' out, and I was just about to swim out and look for it when I saw a small boat out on the lake. I was able to flag them down, and they came over and I asked them if they could go over to where the floats were and see if they could see my drone. When they scooped up one of the floats, my drone was still attached to it. BTW, if you ever decide to use those floats, I'd advise using zip ties to make sure they don't fall off if your drone should flip over on the water.

Friend of mine dumped his into the water and the camera was continuing to take photos of the underwater world. He snagged it out of there pretty quickly but not immediately. Had a few scars from the fall and rocks but he let it dry out I think without doing anything but letting it dry on its own - and it worked and still does. Pretty hardy those things. Amazingly lucky you are.

Accidentally landed my mini 2 in a puddle of water (not totally submerged). The drone immediately shut off. I retrieved the drone in less that a minute. However it took me a bout 5 minutes before I removed the battery. I shook out as much water as I could and was able to make it home 2-3 hours later. I put it and the battery in some rice (covered) I’m going to check back in a day or two to see if it still works! Really hoping for the best, will give an update then🤞🏾

I' Ve crashed my mini2 into a sweet water lake and it took me about 15/20 minutes before I could recover my drone. it was not only water damaged but also covered with mud, I ve cleaned it with a paper towel and filled every inch with rice, and left it dry for about 6 days. my drone started right after but unfortunately, I had imu and CPU errors. so I took my drone to a specialist, not DJI, he cleaned the imu and CPU, and since then no more issues and have been flying with since without any error. MINI 2 is 100% a BEAST.

Time savers if this happens to you (performs steps as quickly as possible).... 1. Remove battery and sd cards (most important step). 2. If it lands in salt water or mud (like here), rinse all items thoroughly under tap water. 3. Forget the rice. In a room temperature room, put a strong fan on items for at least 24-48 hours, changing item positions every 12 hours. 4. Assemble items and pray for functionality.

Even with 48 hrs drying with fan you will not be able to get all water out. It will remain inside of camera and all non tightly closed inside volumes. So you point 3 is much in doubt. Rice is a good absorbent and good decision if you are in a wild nature. In case you are at home, best way will be to put the copter in a clear spirit (stronger is better but vodka can also fit), just remember - NO SUGAR. Spirit will take all the free water in it. After 15 minutes in spirit put copter in absorber or dry on the air. Drying will take a couple of hrs only. Even with all that main point remain your nr4 - pray :) The author of video was just very lucky...

The same thing happened with my Mini 2, it hit a tree and fell 5ft deep into a Lake, a friend was swimming nearby at the time and rescued it for me but it was immersed for 2 mins (recording onto the SD Card all the time..! 😯) I was an hour from home so I put in on my Car Dashboard blowing hot air. When I got home I put it in the Airing cupboard for a week to dry out. I used another battery to see if it worked, it started up but wouldn't connect to the controller so unfortunately it was a lost cause. 😥 Did your wet battery survive?

That's good to know that dunking it won't necessarily destroy it. Unless, perhaps, if it's salt water and then there could be corrosive damage unless you recover it right away. In that case, I would recommend soaking it in fresh water right away and changing the fresh water several times and swishing it around to make sure it penetrates everywhere to dissolve the salt. Then use the rice. It amazes me that even though the rice doesn't penetrate internal compartments, it still dries it out completely. Nice save!
@ThinkingBetter
@ThinkingBetter 2 жыл бұрын
Always remove the battery instantly. Salt water definitely will cause corrosive damage much faster on the electronics, but if you pick it up from the water quickly, remove the battery, rinse it in distilled water (to remove all the salt), be patient drying it completely (days), you can still recover it. Worst is to leave the battery in the drone.

My mini SE ended up in a tree about 30m up. It was there for a week before I could get a professional tree climber to retrieve it! It went through several heavy rain storms during that week. Fortunately, the drone was sitting upright on the tree branch. No repairs were needed, and the drone was dry on retrieval. Everything works, including the battery. The drone has been flown multiple times since, without issue. More than impressed by the quality of this drone!

Great video. Very interesting. I went from Holy Stone to DJI Mini 2 and that is my main worry - the arm breaking. I can see it was a valid concern. Otherwise, the drone flies very well. If money is no object, I would say keep this one in your tool box. If funds are available, perhaps bump up to the Air 2 or Air 2S. The latter has more sensors, automated modes and camera customization. Cheers.

I dropped my Mini 2 in the water. It was immersed for only about 15 seconds. The battery did not survive. I assume it shorts, but with a different battery it flies. Only had to pay for a new battery.

Hi Dave, still much better than pay for a new drone 🙃 Great that he survived 😉

I also crashed my mini 1 into water last summer. I actually took it completely apart and put the motherboard in rice for 2-3 days. Worked flawlessly after that too! They are suprisingly tough.

Dang, that's impressive! Unfortunately I crashed my Mini 2 SE last week into the water in Bremerton. But, the water there was too deep, and dirty for me to find it. It's somewhere at the bottom of the bay now.

Crashed my drone into the paddy fields. The drone got completely submerged into slush water for about a minute. This video gave me confidence that it could be recovered. Thanks a lot. Now the drone is working again. I dried my drone under sun for 3hr instead of using rice

The Mini 1 or 2 have less parts inside to get wet. I have never gotten mine wet but have lost in a tree. Thought it was gone but got it back and fixed the leg its working good. The smile on your face is the same as anyone who has crashed there drone and start it again to see it is working.
