Busted Frame

If you do use super glue I use something with low viscosity along with some kicker spray so it bond’s quickly. I’ve also used baking soda as a hardener but be careful as this produces an exothermic reaction which is hot enough to melt some plastics.

Well took it out for a test flight and found I have some real problems :slightly_frowning_face:

One of the props doesn’t start up correct as it kind of stutters and once up it seems to have a mind of its own…

Is there any diagnostic in Betaflight I can run it through ?? Im thinking the crash did more damage than I first thought !!




Sorry about pic quality still getting use to my insta360 :grimacing:

Maybe you damaged a motor wire when you broke the frame? Stuttering is usually 1 bad wire of 3 to the motor.
