Retrieve deleted flight files

General Discussion

Does anyone know if it is possible to retrieve deleted flight files?

Any file that has not been over written by new data (flight files, video, photos, etc…) can be restored, it just takes the correct software. You did not say where the files are stored, your microSD Card, your phone, tablet, PC, etc…

Understand this, when computers write data, they easily know where the data is stored. They do not need to have a nice, neat, orderly system like the human mind requires. That is why you periodically need to Defrag you hard drive to restore the files into a nice, neat, contiguous system.

If you have done anything, anything at all, on the storage device your files were stored upon, the files might have been completely or only partially overwritten.

Then it requires the NSA, CIA, FBI, or any world-class hacker to get back most or all of those files. Don’t believe everything you see on TV when the hero restores the data on a hard drive that details the location of the “hidden Atomic Bomb” after it has been shot through, blown up, burned, and dropped into the Mariana Trench for 10-years…

Good luck!

Which flight logs are you referring to? Where did you delete them from?

Thanks for your response and any assistance you are able to provide. I deleted the flight files from the Flight Data Center. This was on the DJI “Profile” page under “More >”. Not sure if that explains it well enough or not.

There are no features in DJI Fly that allow deleted flights to be restored in the Flight Data Center. You could reach out to DJI support for help, but I’m not sure they are able to restore deleted flights either.
