Claim Details

Policy Type: Recreational

While flying a DJI Mini 4 Pro in good weather conditions, the client received a weak signal warning from the controller. Acting quickly, they activated the Return to Home feature. Unfortunately, the controller lost complete signal with the drone, causing it to fall from the sky. Despite searching the area, the client was unable to locate it.

  • Claim acknowledged by the team with a request to provide the flight data
  • Client was out of the country so unable to provide flight data until his return, delaying progress of the claim
  • Once flight data received, claim was quickly accepted and a like-for-like replacement was sourced through Drone Safe Store
  • Coverdrone paid the full price of the replacement drone, minus the policy excess payable by the client
  • The replacement drone was sent directly to the client using a next day delivery service
  • Claim paid in full
  • Resolved within 20 days
