Mavic 3 Classic Hard Crash

If the drone tips to a coriander angle the motors will shut down

???

but you can’t get to that angle unless you lose a motor or prop.

The recorded flight data clearly shows that the drone was in a stable hover at the time.
There was no tipping to any angle that would cause a problem.

If the drone tips to a coriander angle .....

There's no such thing as a coriander angle.
I'm curious about what you are thinking of.

If you lose a prop and the drone tumbles the motors will shut down. at a certain angle your drone "failsafes". Spellcheck and OSD caused the "coriander"...I'm not even sure what that means. lol

"coriander"...I'm not even sure what that means. lol

An update to the situation. I shipped the drone back to them last week, and it arrived there Monday. I got an e-mail from them today with a detailed breakdown of the repairs needed - a total of $2,588.00. Charge to me = $0. "This message is from DJI Support. After testing your product, DJI has determined to provide you with free repair service. The repair is expected to be finished within 3 to 6 business days, after which the product will be sent back to you. Thank you for choosing DJI." I assume with this level of damage they'd just send me a refurbished unit vs. attempting a repair. The thing was trashed.

Good to hear. DJI service is generally very good. You will probably just get a brand new one.

It means auto complete reckons the drone was attacked by wild cilantro.

Are you in the US? If so, it's good to hear that DJI is still offering services as efficiently and they have in the past.
