Drone stuck in a tree

in photography •  8 years ago  (edited)

My Parrott Bebop drone was having some issues maintaining altitude. I ran through a calibration but as you can see, it didn't work. It was about 16 ft up and I didn't have a ladder that would reach it so my daughter and I taped as many poles as we could find (broom, mop, paint roller extension, broken shovel) together and whacked the limbs until it fell.

Luckily there was no damage to the drone and we ended up getting a nice afternoon together trying to come up with ways to get it down.
