Never thought a Phantom could recover from a flip but it happened to me. A scary moment when I hit a power line. In the video you can watch/feel the bird do a full sumersault. Crazy.
Simple answer is I ask the client if there's anything particular that he or she is looking for. Then I go and shoot a whole bunch of other angles over and above what they are expecting. In post you can make it look awesome.

Jeff, I have felt your pain and I write this to hopefully help give you some optimism. Almost 2 years ago my first P3P, 2 weeks out of the box, was taken down by a Red-Tailed Hawk while vacationing in Idaho. Needless to say the drone was in bad shape after plummeting from about 80 ft. I was...

"Would I do it again?" Haha, that's funny! and ya know what? I've got a backup Phantom to my main backup and you've got me thinking... hmmm. Except I'd choose something different than a power line, HAH! But you know the old saying, "I bet you can't do that again."
Completely amazed that my drone did a 360 degree flip after hitting a power line and did not crash to the ground. How is this possible? Has anyone else ever had their Phantom upside down without crashing?
Thank you for your observation. Tried the credit card idea and small screw driver but to no avail. So that I don't void any warranties I'll hold off from doing anything in case I need to send the bird in. Kind regards.
