15 quid. Jeez.
Another reason Iāll not bother with the DJI FPV
Iām happy paying 2/3 quid a set, for props
Iām impressed how well it held up after the knock! Iāve put mine in the dirt once, and a tree once and still not lost a prop. Theyāre tougher than they look. I must admit Iāve gotten quite addicted to the flight time itās a really relaxing way to cruise around when the sun is out.
Flying ( too ) low over water does not end well
It seems that when you strap a foam-encased GoPro to the belly of a Spry drone, it likes to float upside down
Not a crash, but I got lucky and managed to plough through the branches. I had to. There was a ditch below
That was a close one Karl lol Did the props survive?
Yeah. Thereās a few nicks, but nothing bent. Just happy it didnāt land in the ditch!
Props out for the win!
Yeah haha looks like there was a decent amount of water in there too lol
Iām guessing that if this happens itās a case of strip it back to the frame and replace everything?
It would be ok if you take the lipo off as quick as. Then just dry it out. Iāve dunked a 10" with a lipo on in my garden pond. Dried it out and it was fine.
You can wash your quad under a tap and dry it off and it should be fine. But do at your own risk But sea water will kill it
Wow thats a surprise, I assumed it would be a case of instant bang with a puff of smoke lol
Did you see the bits of the twigs fly off?
Fantabulastic flying Karl what a save.
I presume it was a 50p-20p moment in the trouser department�
Yeah. The gap is a little bit bigger now
Which bit of speatukās comment were you replying to ?
Always check your goggle battery folks, having spares in tour bag just doesnāt cut it⦠[having low battery warning turned on would have helped too]
Caddx coax torn at plug, antenna gone, one arm snapped, one motor gone, tpu mounts gone, immortal T torn, and the whole thing took a swim
Ouchie! Looks like a nasty crash Hope you can get her repaired and back in the sky
Thanks mate
Switching frame, couldnāt find arms to be delivered quickly, and needed a coax too, but I have everything else and frame+coax come tomorrow so I expect to have her airborne in a day or so. Expensive lesson learned.
I donāt have a video but a nice picture after a signal loss on the Nazgul 5.
Luckily the only damage was a broken prop.
You know what they sayā¦!
You have to crash to find the limits.
Glad it was only a damaged prop.
