    Phantom 3 Standard Fly Away. Where is it ?

    Cure for wet cell phones tablets and yes drones. worse case scenario, it was submerged or outside in bad weather for days. 5lbs of rice, {more if needed} in a closed container that holds the wet culprit, tape the lid creating an airtight seal. Rice will draw out moisture like nobodies business...

    P3S otor does not spin (motherboard problem?)

    tool check, good soldering iron, medium to small tip, needle nose pliers, tweezers. rosin core solder. dont use cheap solder on a drone, only runs globs an makes a mess, NEVER USE MORE THAN U NEED, too much heat ruins the board., esc,s usually go bad long before a motor with relation to crashes...
