Last night I broke my propeller during landing. It scratched against a brick wall. What do you think will happen if I take off with the broken propeller?

Nothing good. Props are cheap, you get two full sets anyway.

I fly with *tiny* chips in the leading edge of one prop from my first day flight clipping a wooden post with no ill effects but I would not go beyond this. Even now, I feel guilty.
 
I would expect some Jello in your recordings, may be a little noisier, should be ok for FPV fun etc tho ... depending how big a chunk came off lol, best replacing them tbh.
 
It will probably fly but you will induce lots of vibration in your AC and thats not good. Like Peter said buy new props there cheap and get a spare set too.
 
I will go for new balanced set of props.

I would also check if all is good with the Gimbal as that's the most delicate part of the bird.

Thank you guys. I will get new ones rather. Considering that I now have bigger problems than my morning one. I've crashed. My gimbal is now not responding.
