Hi, everyone:
I was out fliming a golf course, when my Phantom 3 4K hit a tree, dropped, bounced off a rock, and landed in a small stream, completely submerged. It was probably there for about 30-40 seconds, upside-down, before being pulled out.
Here's the damage:
1. the gimbal came off - all four of the plastic pins attaching it to the body are gone, and one of the four eyelets (where the plastic pins go through) on the corners of the gimbal snapped.
2. the body of the aircraft has obvious damage where the top part of the shell connects to the bottom part.
I'm not sure about the battery yet, but I'm guessing it's done as well.
Now what?
Does this sound like something worth pursuing to replace?
It is currently sitting in front of a fan, working on drying out - do I put in another battery, turn it on, and try to save the footage I did capture?
Thanks for any thoughts you have.
