Can anyone tell me what this is?? It just fell out of the Phantom 3 4K recently bought second hand.

It is a surface mount capacitor which has come off a circuit board. Looks like it has torn the copper track a little also. Depending where it is what it is used for it may not affect fuction.
 
crazy how so many things just fall off of these drones
 
How did it manage to fall out?

Easy to understand how it got off the board but hard to understand how it got out if the shell unless you pulled it apart.

It’s a filter cap, there is one at the back and front of the mainboard. It’s probably the one from the front as it’s closest to the edge and usually closer to the person trying to pry the shell halves apart with a screwdriver or fat thumbs.
