DJI Avata 2 | Split-S Crash and Damaged Gimbal [4k]

What was meant to be a simple fly-around of some local lakes turned into a mini disaster. I misjudged a Split-S maneuver, had to drive half a mile to retrieve the drone, and navigated through nettles and thorn bushes. The gimbal's rubber plastic support snapped, causing it to detach on one side. I carefully disassembled it, super-glued the rubber anchor, and reassembled the gimbal. She's up and running again-a life saved. #avata2 #fpvdrone #dji #manualmode #avata

I know how you feel because I heard that the drone fell and went into a thorny vine and got hurt. I found it after 10 months. It got caught in a tree and fell in the wind. 👍 Thank you for your hard work. You shouldn't get hurt yourself.❤

LOL thanks for not removing the "find" part that was hilarious.

Glad it didn't sink into the water! Mine broke in the same way but since I had purchased the DJI care thing, I sent it for repairs and waiting for the quote.

Yep, Practice, Practice and more Practice. I don't use the simulators, find them too different from reality.
