Mental shock

For those who like looking crash movies, here is my contribution.
100% pilot error.
It took me a whole day to recover mentally.

There is that learning curve when using quick shots , and the thing you learn fast is not to use it unless you have unlimited amount of space . What nice about this is you will learn even quicker to never depend on the Sensors or active tracking,

So two lessons learned 1 bird , That is Par for the course .

@iglou7 ARRHH the dreaded tree number one enemy of all things that fly
what makes it worse is the fact that they usually come off best in the encounter
dont beat yourself up too much ,occupational hazard ,hope you are back in the air soon
was there much damage to the drone

I actually turn my sensors off when flying. I don't want to depend on them whatsoever. If you do, you will eventually crash your drone. I learned my lesson too. The drone companies boast about this technology, but it only gives a false sense of security.

you can always see better in the recordings , looks like you were focused anyway. Thats not so bad

No sideways obstacle detection means crashes flying sideways unless you check the area visually first. Higher above the big tree and you’ll be fine.
