Hey everyone, I am new to the phantom. I have owened many quads, but this P3 standard is my favorite. I programmed a mission in litchi and screwed up a waypoint, the drone tried to fly underground. The AC ended up on its back (middle of the srtreet) and snapped 2 of my carbonfiber blades in half. I promptly replaced all 4 blades, and recalibrated the IMU. seems to hover fine, although, I wanted to check and see what else I should look for. And a sub note, the is no hull damage.

Thanks
Ron

After a crash, I like to closely inspect the entire craft inside and out with a magnifying glass.

Sorry to hear the crash. Is there any error message in APP? If not, you can check the performance at a low altitude.

Baby step flying will tell you if there is something else wrong with it.
