Description
Friday around 5:30 p.m., I was flying two drones over the Robins Air Force Base area and the Macon Mall parking lot on Zebulon Road. A gust snagged one drone in a tree, and the other drifted toward the woods behind the lot. I’ve retraced my steps along the riverwalk and Forsyth Road, calling out into the fading light in case someone picked them up. I rely on these drones for weekend shoots, and the thought of them stuck in branches makes me anxious. Please report any leads through the site so I can bring them home.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
