Glad you had your model, extracted surgically, from the grasp of thee large tree.

Thank you.

The dron looks fine, without any scratches, except one broken propeller. Gimbal works correctly, without strange sounds. Idid two test flights today, the dron responds to all the commands correctly. I'm just not fully sure about one thing, when I start and slowly increase RPM, in one momet  the whole dron is vibrating. But that was probably the case before.

I seriously think that Sport Mode should only be used in a wide open area.  A P4P hits speeds of up to 45mph+ in Sport Mode, pretty darned fast just flying in open sky let alone anywhere requiring one to maneuver.
To even consider using it in an area such as this was only asking for trouble, and unfortunately you found it...glad it was not seriously damaged.

Thank you for answer, I really appreciate this.

As i said earlier, if it was only my fault, I would have never posted this photos . The first factor was the lost signal between the RC and P4P...

Well, let’s just say that I’m Czech. Hahaha

Some of my off the cuff comments are seriously misunderstood by many. So join the crowd.

A Crash Course is usually a very short instruction period. Brief in essence.

But it’s so appropriate where drone accidents are concerned.


Fly safe.

Well I can't say why you had a signal issue, but your post will at least bring this matter to everyone's attention and hopefully make others think twice before taking off in Sport Mode in to an area that requires a lot of maneuvering.
Fly Safe...

Wow that was some rescue. I’ve only used Atti mode in fields or at the beach but never in the woods. Thanks for the post. I’m happy you recovered it.
