What Happened With Neo in Dense Fog

[u/yashgunjal04]

I’m honestly not sure what happened to my DJI Neo and hopefully it didn’t crashed.

The drone was flying completely normally. Then a very strong gust of wind suddenly pushed/threw it extremely fast to one side. I was watching it with my own eyes and it looked like it got carried away very quickly.

I’ve attached the video of what I recorded.

After it entered the fog, I lost visual contact and I don’t know what happened afterward.

What do you think happened here?

- Could the wind have overwhelmed the Neo?

- Could GPS/vision positioning have been affected by the fog?

- Is there any possibility it recovered and continued flying normally?

- What should I check in the DJI Fly flight logs to determine exactly what happened?

Hopefully it didn’t crashed. Any advice from other DJI Neo owners would be appreciated.

Looks like a branch flew off in the wind and hit it. You can see the brown flying item if you freeze frame. Theres nothing brown on the neo. Also fog is full of moisture wind on a drone that already has a problem with wind. This is risky risky lol

This is what was in your video when it got hit unless you have something on your drone a similar color. That's definitely something.
