Sorry to read this. Is the fan inside the AC spinning?

Do not be sorry!! It is worth it even when it crashes.. live and learn

How do I check that?

You should be able to hear it very clearly when it's cooling the AC electronics. Overheating might be due to not spinning and if so you need it repaired.

You are correct!! It is not working.. quite like a log..

Not worth using the refresh, do you agree?

I would not fly it with no cooling... will likely fail in flight.

I have to disagree - don't turn it on again but send it in for repair.

Is it better than just a repair? Do you think something else will fail soon because of the drop?

For sure something else could be wrong. Regardless if the CPU cannot be cooled you cannot fly it. Just like if you have a computer where the CPU fan and heat sink don’t work. You will just make it worst. Send it in.
