Hi.
Just joined.
I have a P4P for about 7 months now. It isn't my first drone.
I was having an amazing time yesterday. About 250 feet up and 500 feet away. I was flying slow as I pretty much hovering. A bird flew fast into my drone. I watched the video as it came down - of course it was chaotic. It descended quickly which was terribly disconcerting. It crashed in a parking lot. Battery destroyed. One propeller destroyed. One dome light broken. 1 leg broken. Otherwise amazingly intact.
Two people were in a church parking lot and were holding it.
According to the flight log the propeller came off.
I am not are what happened to the bird.
I have DJI Care so it will be fixed for free.
My question to all is has anything similar ever happened to u?
My heart was pounding till I saw no one was hurt.
Any advice from the more experienced pilots?
Thanks.
