Hey everyone, thanks for the amazing supportive comments! I was smiling while reading them
To everyone that's interested - you're right, the drone compensated for its clipped off props automatically, but even then it was slowly descending, so I had to be extremely quick and hit the throttle 100% so it can go up, otherwise it was going to quickly sink in the water.
As you noticed, in the video I said "limp its way back to me", because the drone was really difficult to control, especially when trying to increase the altitude, which of course is understandable when having 3 broken props. Anyway, I'm so so so happy with how it dealt with the hit and how it still managed to regain some sort of control right after hitting the rocks.. Luckily I was really close-by so it didn't have to go some extreme distance to land.
One thing though, this crash made me fall in love with the drone even more, I definitely appreciate how it dealt with the situation. I was thinking if this was my Spark, it would have already been at the bottom of the sea Changed the props right after getting back home and the drone looks and feels like brand new again. Gotta love this small piece of awesomeness
