I was doing a video flying under several umbrellas over a 20 person event table. The drone was fine then boom it went crazy flew out to the left ignored my commands and crashed into the pool.I dived in and got it. It is flying now but electronics are strange.IE compass and no gimble function. I have been flying since day 1 with DJI so I am experienced but this was so very strange.I am sure I messed up but I have done the same shots with my Inspire 2 and Phantom 4 with no problems. Ideas.

Hi, we're sorry for the convenience. We highly suggest syncing the flight records using the DJI Go 4 app and contact our support via the link below for a further evaluation of your unit. For additional information, for the sake of security,  we indeed don’t repair water damaged drone. Because aircraft consists of a large quantity of sensitive electrical components, after it is water damaged, electrical components may be corroded, thus affecting its stability and security. Through the related tests, the repair of water damaged units needs to replace all the relevant components, and it is possible that the cost of repairing a water damaged drone is far higher than buying a new drone. Therefore, we advise that water damaged units are ineligible for repair service. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

Until I can see the video and flight records I do not know what caused this. All I know I lost total control of it. Maybe the sensors overrode me or I should have switched them off.I have been flying DJI for many years and right now I am saying I am to blame.This is only my second crash.Ths first is when I had only done 3 flights under my belt.The oak tree is still not talking to me !!!! No collision avoidance in those days.LOL
