Just conducted a test flight with stock props. Seems to fly alright, will keep an eye on it for awhile. Thank you everyone for your help!

That's definetly a possibility. The drone must have moved out of the gimbal's range during the roll, because for a split second, I saw a weird uncontrolled movement on my phone. Also, holding that thought, the rest of the crash couldve been user error, because the gimbal flipped all the way...

this makes sense...it also makes me wonder if I did some user error as well. if you look at the crash video, from the camera angle, it looks as though the drone was flying forward and to the right, and if you look at my stick movements, i was doing the exact opposite, full backwards and left...

Here's the video link.

How do i embed the video? Its uploaded to youtube. I could just send a link.

I was relatively low, when the motor error occured, and Ive flown in windy conditions maybe hundreds of times before with no issues. I dont think the high altitude ascent had anything to do with the motor error. Ive flown the mini 3 quite a bit, and know what its capable of, the strong wind...

Okay. Never done this before, sorry for any inconvenience.

The prop didn't snap until the impact, as it was found next to the drone, i forgot to add that detail.

Was enjoying a flight with my mini 3 today, hovering over a park, when suddenly I get a message on my controller, "Motor Unable to Rotate" So I decide to bring it in. It then starts acting very wonky, flying all over the place, and the controls feel odd. I was doing my best to keep it over grass...

Finally got a chance to calibrate the sensors (twice) and do a test flight. Overcast, slight wind, and very slight drizzle. (not enough to impede flying) Had the same result for a few minutes, jerky flight forward, until I turned OA off. Continued flying, and the issue seemed to stop (Although...

I thought about re calibrating, but I thought it would give me a warning if it needed it, but I'll try it and see what happens. Thanks!

Having an odd issue with the obstacle avoidance on my mavic air 2. When flying forward, the obstacle avoidance sensors seem to detect something, which causes the drone to jerk back and forth, and many times it wont even fly full speed with full stick applied. This does not happen when the...

Yeah, I was hoping to find a simple solution, but what can i expect when it comes to DJI drones, which are very complex machines. I guess my only option is to send it dji. I really don't trust myself to open it up, as I feel I would make things worse. Thanks for your help though! 👍

Yeah, thats's one of the reasons I don't want to get into the DJI mess. At my age, it's going to be hard to do it. Do you think there is a possible fix/cause?

Had an accident with my mavic mini. 2nd time something bad has happened to it since i got it last july. Anyways, there is a problem with the gimbal. When I turn the drone on, the gimbal goes through its normal diagnostic start-up procedure (rolling back and forth to check gimbal motors) but...
