Today, my DJI Mavic Pro crashed into a sand dune for the first time using auto track. I freaked out that the sand would destroy the motors and the whole thing in general...and it pretty much ruined the rest of my entire day lol.


THE SOLUTION IS you need to just get a standard vaccuum that has a tube that sucks in the air. Take the propellors off and go into all the crevises that sand got into and suck it out. I did it twice for about 15 sec for each. And it WORKS! Try it out, hope this helps!


(note: sand only got into the motors, not the entire drone itself)
