Very cool flight - until the fail. Very lucky to get it back! Did it survive?

Cool to see (apart from the crash).
How is the drone?

Unfortunately, he died

I immediately took it apart, washed it with water, cleaned it with soda and moisture remover. But this did not help, most of the cables were destroyed by corrosion

Unfortunately, very poor stabilization of the drone and the external DJi Action 2 camera made me fly very smoothly. And in order not to ruin the wonderful flight, I was forced to carefully correct the trajectory. As you can see, this led to a crash

As happens on occasion with FPV flying.  I hope you have a great week.

Bummer - at least you got the footage. And I think DJI's "repair" fees are pretty reasonable.

Unfortunately DJI left my current country a long time ago. That's why I buy all the drones again at 100% of the cost...

An expensive crash then Commiserations.

Good grief!  That's carnage. But flying into tricky spaces is obviously not without its risks. An expensive occupation.

I'm sorry for your loss. This can be an expensive hobby if bad luck happens to strike. I hope you get back into your feet again, despite all this.

After that flight I was hoping that maybe you'd pull off a complete recovery tbut there you go.
I suppose the bright side, if there's any, is that you can replace with the latest model. The other side is that itr costs.

Unfortunately I can not. I didn’t want to, I had to. Avata 2 can NOT replace FatDrone
