Summary
Give your Mavic a life jacket for easy recovery when ditching in water!
(It's not intended for landing / taking off from water, but possible if needed)
The frame provided in this download has it's rear click on attachments moved back a bit for more stability.
The "pool noodles attachment" will also fit on the following frame: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1986993
You will need to print 4 pool noodles attachment's to make it work!
Obviously you will also need a small piece from a pool noodles (ツ)
The "pool noodles attachment" has been created for a 60mm diameter pool noodles, but bigger / thicker diameter should fit too.
There are two versions of the attachment. Both will work fine, but v2 should theoretically be a bit stronger and have a better fix to the main frame!
On the mavic pilots forum is a nice thread about a water recovery system, but as I do not like the way things are moderated at that place I decided that I did not wanted to be part of that community anymore.
Here are some tests done by Pete Johnstone.
