Hey guys I'm newbie to this whole drone scene I've had drones on the passed but nothing like the p3p. I've had it for a couple months now and unfortunately the other day I was flying it low on ATTI mode and let it drift off into a tree while looking away for a couple seconds she went down not that high from the ground I got the whole "Motor Obstructed" warning I reset it after inspecting the aircraft nothing was damaged. I continued to fly it just to make sure everything was okay and everything seemed to check out besides it drifting a bit so I replaced the props and put it away for the night. Next day I ran it up at idle to see if the props were straight and they looked fine but when I introduce a bit more power just a bit not enough to get it off the ground and one of the arms has a slight wobble but if I speed it up a bit more it goes away Also in flight everything seems fine no wobble. Is it possible that the motor was misaligned or arm is bent?

I also flipped it upside down with the props off to see if all 4 motors were level and seems like one is not level.... should I replace the shell or not worry about it since its fine in flight ?

Appreciate any help!
 
What exactly do you mean by one of the motors seems like it's not level?
 
Let say I lay a squared piece of glass on top of the 4 motors it should sit level on all 4 but it doesn't get me?
 
I get you. It's more likely that you bent an arm than have a misaligned motor. That's quite the oddity though since you're confident that your shell is not damaged.
 
Please post some detailed photos of the motor you believe is damaged.
 
I took it out to fly to see what would happen in flight and it can't seem to hold position
 
Can I send you the video through email ? It won't let me post it
You can upload it to YouTube and post a link back here. Detailed photos would be fine as well.
