I crashed my MPP

I was in a drone Meetup and crashed my mavic while filming a lake into a tree. Miraculously, only one prop was gone. No damage to the camera. I changed all four props and flew without issues. It is amazing how strong the MPP it's.

Glad to hear your MPP survived! How far did it fall?

It got stuck in the tree... That's probably why it didn't suffer any considerable damage.

Ah, even better then. It sounds like luck was on your side today.

Great to hear about your good fortune! I also have a MPP but was not as lucky. It took off on its own (went straight up) when I powered down my RC as the MPP was idling on a park bench table. Hit a bunch of branches and crashed to the ground. Lots of damage. I have the Care Refresh program. DJI replaced it.

The care refresh saved you!!!
