A few weeks ago, my Phantom 2 crashed into a freshwater pond. The battery was thrown out upon impact. The drone spent about 30 seconds at most in the pond before I got it out, after which I immediately took it home. I opened it up and let it dry completely in the sun.
Fast forward to today, I recieved two new batteries (the old one was recovered, but non-functional), as well as an FPV module. I was under the assumption that such brief exposure to relatively benign water wouldn't damage the drone.
Whenever I turn the drone on, the two rear arms flash yellow slowly after the normal built in test indications. I'm running in Naza M mode. There is no mention of what this code means anywhere in the manual or internet. (This is what's so unbelievably frustrating about the situation) Additionally, the GPS module gets extremely hot, and the drone pulls about 12 watts constantly.
Of course, the motors won't start. There is no change in the lights when I attempt a CSC, despite the fact that all indications in the software are completely normal, I even did a full recalibration of the IMU. The only thing I can see is the reciever type is set to D bus, apparently this is a common problem with no obvious soution.
I'm 99% sure I'm gonna have to throw the drone in the bin, just wondering if anyone has had similar issues before.
