Remarkable. And still flying!

[pgh1949]

I recently had a minor prang by flying up into a telephone wire I'd failed to spot. After the drone freed itself it carried on flying. It was only a few metres up over my garden so I brought it down and flew it around a bit at low level and noticed it seemed to be pulling to one side. Anyway I brought it back to me and landed without incident.

Then I noticed one prop......



Amazing it kept flying!

Lucky ! Inspect props regularly. They can develop stress crack over time.

Does the telephone still work?

Hah Hah! Yes it does. 2 Blocked junk calls already.

Excellent, save, label and mount the prop “The day I . . .”

MP props are so much more well made than the other guys. I have never had one chip or show stress marks yet.

Same think happened to me when I flew into some tree branches. It actually tumbled, righted itself, flew it home and landed. Saw a couple chipped Props. I was amazed. And felt very fortunate.
