Hi guys, I'm new P3P user with about 1h of flight.
Today when I was landing, unfortunately my Phantom turned on a one side which caused about 3-5sec engine obstruction. When I inspected drone after flight I saw cracks on body under engines. Is it still safe to fly ? I have to buy brand new shell or maybe just prop guards are enough to strengthen the shell ?
PS Sorry for images - I have no idea how to change resoluton of pics on this forum.
Regards, Mateusz

Thanks for the reply, this set looks nice, but first I will try to change my P3P trough my local dealer, I got it week ago. Hope they will replace it for a brand new one.

Just out of curiosity,,mine got these cracks after 80 flights in 4 months. I glued them with superbonder, bought a new body, never used it. Now I have 185 flights with the cracks, manly in the back arms, 27hs 206Km. The glue seams strong
