I crash my MavicPro drone into the crown of a tree and have to figure out how to rescue it. It is damn cold and snow is falling in the Austrian Alps. I decide to use an arborist technique. Since I do not have my tree climbing gear with me I have to improvise. I make a throw bag out of a random plastic bag and I use an old line as throw line. Watch until the end if you want to know more about using throw bags and throw lines and how to make improvised ones.

You can purchase a throw bag and throw line online from any arborist shop in your country. From my personal experience I can recommend Freeworker. I buy my tree climbing gear from this cool company. (I am not paid by Freeworker to make ads for them).
