What'd you do? One prop gone, one cut off?
Is the bird still working?
Any video to watch?
Welcome and get well soon, little Spark!

Welcome to the forum.

Hope nothing badly damaged. Check the motors for any debris or broken pieces inside.

I really Admire your Patience, you where so calm and patient to focus on the Drone and take it a Beautiful Photo ?

I would have gone nuts, screaming like a b17ch.... though you are so peaceful and calm.

Impressive ! Welcome to the Forum.

You need to buy some propellers now, they aren't expensive and replace the broken ones. I will send you link a video.

Do some test flights and check that there is no wobble / shaking of the drone during the flight.

Keep it in VLOS (Visual Line of Sight) don't go far, so that if something happens you can easily recover it.

If you need help let us know. Cheers, Mate !

Thanks DJI Wanda it still flys fine so far ....
few hiccupps with gimbal overload errors tho,
Not sure what to do with the drone , is dji techs expensive  or fairly priced ?
the front 3d protector shade is gone , i cut up a pair of sunglasses and glued it in place..
i was thinking of getting a new middle section and swapping parts over as im sure it has the front 3d sensor shade attached ...

To all the rest of you peoples nice reply's all i can say is whats one to do we usualy learn the hard way !!

Also finding this forum easier than on  my phone

Thanks for your advice i had spare props i needed to use two of them, yes today i took for a couple of flights distance reached was 300 m then i returned home.. did this a couple of times only issue is gimbal overload error.. when i got home i blew clean around that area .. no re test yet as today in Brisbane was very gusty winds , so i am  glad i went at dusk for a flight..

i am confused with my original post  user name as it should be Harry like it is on my Laptop ..
