DSD Finds OctoCopter

Our amazingly talented friends at High Point Pictures were recently shooting aerial footage from their high end, remotely controlled "OctoCopter" drone when the craft experienced a total loss of power. It sunk the moment it hit the water, and was seemingly lost forever when they called DEEP SOUTH DIVERS to spearhead a search and recovery effort. Using our advanced side scan sonar equipped boat, we located a series of anomalies on the bottom near the suspected crash site. Even though it had been several days since the crash, we successfully exercised our standard procedures with eyewitness accounts, WAAS-enabled Global Positioning Systems, and LOWRANCE side scan sonar. We searched for hours before diving virtually blind, then performed a tethered concentric circle search until the all-carbon fiber craft was located and retrieved. High Point Pictures was able to recover much of the craft's onboard and transmitted video footage and added scenes from the recovery at the end to produce a typically (for them) stunning account of the shoot, the crash and the recovery:
