crash damage

Has anyone had to replace the vibration absorber that connects the gimbal to the aircraft frame? I sideswiped some tree foliage with my P4A, and it fell into bushes 50 ft. below that broke the fall. The props weren't broken, nor the landing gear, and no cracks show. It still flies okay and the...

- could I replace the camera assembly and legs and be good to go, or are there internals/calibration that has to be factory-performed? Asking for a friend.

Hello everyone, As I was flying today, the drone literally fell from the sky.. the results are bad. Broken prop, the battery was "ejected" from the drone, so was the GoPro and the gimbal... à part of the drone is also broken ... Very angry/sad about that, I tried ever since to turn it on, with...

I was did a dumb thing last week by continuing to fly the P3P and not stop and hover when I lost video and ended up hitting a tree the was over 100 feet tall. I was flying a 90 feet when I hit the tree. There does not appear to have any damage to the body but did destroy gimbal and camera. The...

Hello guys, I am currently fixing my friend Phantom 3Adv which crashed to a tree. And cannot figure out where the problem is. The camera row axis cover and the ribbon cable were broken after the crash. I just replaced them and all looks fine. But soon I find that the pitch axis is not working...

Crashed my P3 Advanced and have to fix it my self. Following are the damages. Sensor box is detached Gimbal rubber stabilizers seems a bit off Onefromt motor seems to have sand in it. I want advises from you people on the next steps I can take. Any comment is much appreciated.

There was not that much water from the snow but i am deeply concerned about the motors, and percautions i can take to make sure the drone isnt damaged by water, FYI camera and gimbal are fine. it just inverted and crashed into the snow.

So my P3 recently took a tumble, most of which i've replaced, not too bad damage, BUT I need to re-synch my controller to the aircraft and MY LINK BUTTON IS GONE. Does anyone know of any place I could get a replacement button/connection to mount it back to the motherboard, or should I just look...

Hi all: I posted a bit about my roof crash yesterday with my Phantom 4. The only thing that seemed like an issue was broken blades. Today I went to get it up and working and a couple of odd things happened. I have looked in the manual, but can't seem to find where this info is (ie there is...

Hit some trees branches at low speed. Phantom 3 Advance fell into some high grass/brush. When we try and turn it on the camera gimbal won't initialize (it keeps trying though). We're a small, east coast solar company without a lot of money so hoping to get some advice and fix ourselves. Any...

Hi all, so at a wedding a few days ago, I was called away from my drone to take some pictures with the bride and groom. I told my nephew he could fly it for a few minutes, so instead of helping him myself, I asked my wife to help him. About 30 seconds after walking away, I heard leaves being...

I have a phantom 3 advanced, here is my story... -I crashed my drone a week ago, camera ripped off the gimbal. -put it back together carefully with new parts -DJI Go app notifies me of a gimbal overload from time to time but gimbal is acting fine otherwise -transmitting video feedback to me in...

BEFORE I CRASHED Date: Tuesday July 5, 2016 Location: Rock Park in Castle Rock, CO Aircraft: Phantom 3 Pro

Just got my brand new P3 pro. First flight, clipped a tree and had a hard crash from about 30 feet. Came down sideways landing on one of the arms. Bent it. Gimbal looks to be OK. But arm is bent and plastic casing is cracked. I have no idea what to do. Does anyone know of there is...

I recently crashed my p3 and the motors need to be replaced and the casing is cracked and I'm pretty sure the esc's are toast .My camera and gimbal still work perfectly. Now i got on eBay and they have a replacement P3P aircraft only for 420 no battery just the aircraft . But on the dji website...

I crashed the Phantom 2 in a corn field, and it was still running when I got to where it landed. I immediately shut it off and brought it back into the house. I replaced one of the props that had busted upon landing. When I went to turn it back on the battery didn't appear to be connecting to...

Hi Phantom Pilots, I was flying my P2V on Friday the 13th (shame on me) when I crashed.. When I recovered the drone, the camera had become disconnected.. I reconnected the servo cable & the jack on the back of the camera, although it was bent.. Flew the drone again and everything went fine...

I have all but had it with DJI. I do everything right and they decide to shove it back to me even harder and broken more than it was when I sent it for repair. Sent for repairs after a firmware update and I am told I didn't tighten the props and one flew off. I send them photos of the props...

I crashed at about 50 ft. into the top branches of a tree and the camera and half the gimbal landed about 50 ft. from the aircraft. After replacing the ribbon cable and putting the gimbal back together, every time I start it up, the camera seems to do it's happy dance and end up tilted at an odd...
