After 2 months I finally managed to fly my mini into the side of a wooden shed. No real biggie, just me being impatient and not waiting for enough satellites. I was in a hurry to get it up to film a fire red sunset. So, at a height of 1.5m it just drifted into the shed wall. Put it straight back up in the air after checking for obvious damage but couldn’t see anything.
Was a bit shaky in the air so I landed it straight away. On landing, the back flap opened. When I got home, i checked the props properly and found abrasions on props in the front.
I have two sets of blades which I’m obviously going to put on. My question is, should I replace all 4 sets? In which case I’d have to order some more first.
For the time being, should I just replace individual blades? Or both per motor? First time I ever have to do this. Before I forget, what’s the best place to order them from?
Thanks in advance for your advice!!
I’d only replace the damaged ones. The non damaged ones should be fine.
Do a hover test after you’ve changed the damaged ones. It’ll tell you if you need to change the others.
