    If you think about it your spraying water and chemicals it should be water proof. Otherwise the over spray would get into it.

    I would be more interested to know why it landed in the pond presumably while returning to home. Not enough battery to make it home? 🤷‍♂️ I get nervous with our drone when it rains while we’re doing a deer search.

      DJI drones force themselves to land in place under 10% battery remaining, a good pilot can use this time to maneuver the drone to a safer location for landing.

    • @alosch4
      @alosch4 6 місяців тому

      Yes, but XAG drones will calculate the amount of battery life needed to get back to home to land with the programmed battery life. That's one of the reasons I made the switch. Recently sold my T40s to go with the P100 pros. Couldn't be happier!

    • @aerialdragondroneservices7451
      @aerialdragondroneservices7451 6 місяців тому

      @alosch4 yes, DJI drones are also designed to do this. Meaning the operator made the decision to overwrite the RTH function. Granted I do not fly a T40, but every other DJI drone I have used does this.

    I would not be suprised at all if you get a email from DJI asking if they can have that drone back so they can look at it to see what damage etc there is.

    @Drone Deer Recovery - WOW after not only dunking a $20K drone for no particularly good reason, then following up with this moronic stunt, maybe you guys should change your name to _SHORT BUS Drone Deer Recovery_ because you all certainly deserve it.🙄🙄🙄 GEEZ even Mikey at PhillyDroneLife would never consider doing something so reckless.

    Why would you wait 4.5 hours to pull it out of the water, I would of dove in to save it. Also never power on something that just came out of the water. Take it apart and make sure it's completely dry and do many system checks before even trying to takeoff near any bystanders.

    Flying over water can trick it into landing. Seen it talked about with smaller dji drones

    • @KevinDoherty
      @KevinDoherty 6 місяців тому +1

      This is false, its poor piloting. I have more flights logged over water than dry land. turn off the "auto landing feature" and don't fly so close to the surface. its not the drones, its the lack of knowledge of what the drone does "out of the box"

    • @colins2743

    The DJI T40 is a waterproofed drone. The internals and externals have been coated with a waterproofing agent to keep them protected since they are dealing with sprays and other waters all day, every day. It doesn't surprise me that it's able to be recovered, and still fly with minimal cleaning.

    Sorry Mike, but a dislike from me. I get it might be an intentional test but I think you should put some more effort into operation safety. Children, dogs, obstacles, condition of the machine, just waiting for the accident to happen. Maybe I got the European way of thinking... in US you can just walk into to the store and buy a firearm, so I guess you just don't worry about safety as much as we do.

    • @T-Squizzle
      @T-Squizzle 7 місяців тому +2

      It was not intentional it was an accident and you are wrong about just walking into a store and buying a gun. We do have background checks everyone goes through. Past that fact hell yeah we have more freedom than yall. Sucks to be over on that side of the pond I guess

      We have longer leashes here, but we don't have freedom. If we were truly a land of the free and the home of the brave, anyone would be able to walk into a store and buy a firearm and carry out on their person anywhere in public
