After a crash and shell replacement, No battery data being sent..

[psbmt1]

After replacing the shell, I did not see any other damage, when I power everything on, I get a warning, Motor overload. Aircraft will decelerate. Then Battery Error. There is no battery telemetry being sent from the P3Pro. Any help out there? GPS works, Compass calibrated. Under Aircraft status, it says Invalid Battery, any ideas out there? Thanks in advance!!

try a new battery?

sure did. I am wondering if there is a data cable I might have missed...it was a pretty good crash, the mother board was knocked loose, I did not see any breaks in the board. how does the data from the battery get to the mother board and then sent to the RC?

Usually when people have posted a similar question, the issue is the cable that goes to the small spring loaded data pins. Perhaps give that a quick check.

so I took it out for a flight, started to take off about 2' ,when it went up, it tilted and drifting abruptly to the right. Broke a couple blades when it hit the house. So I ran it without blades, when I tilt it, a very loud whine comes from inside the shell, motors sound ok..Is there a gyroscope on the motor board? guess I am screwed..thanks for any help!!
