I have crashed my mini 2 in the sea 🙈 stripped it down and cleaned the motherboard the drone turns on but has no signal so won’t fly camera works fine ,,, and ideas or is goosed?
 
We probably need more words than that, and ideally some pics of the tear-down so we can try and see where the damage is. When you say 'no signal' do you mean no control signal, or no VTX, or both ?!
 
Something has been shorted. Think of seawater as a liquid conductor. Immersion connects every soldered electrical connection in contact with every other electrical conductor. I’d never fly that drone again.
