Saw a BM walking with it through Alberts Farm while doing ride on the Spruit.

 

Drone still wriggling like a wounded bird. Must have just happened. Asked where he got it from, said he found it in the reeds. Gave him R50 for it, now looking for the owner....cycled this place flat looking for some one with a controller

 

Any ideas on how to go about this? Has SD card with video.....

SD card might have contact details or GPS coordinates or gpx file of its flight path and origin. Might even be able to trace the origin from the video

I've passed the contact details of the person who lost the drone on to TrailRat.

Brilliant. Always lekker to hear of honest and aware members of the public who are willing to do the right thing.

 

Good stuff.

 

I'm sure the owner is going to be chuffed.

Contact made with owner via a PM sent to me. Reviewed video, phoned owner, questions and answers matched.
