Intelligent drone

[lay1back]

My phantom 3 Pro was damaged when I struck a tree. It tumbled through the branches and fell to the ground. Looking at it, I noticed one arm bent slightly up, the propeller would clear the body by a couple of millimeters. Replacing two broke props from the crash, I tried a test flight. It flies just fine. My point is: any aircraft damaged to this extent would not fly normally. This UAV has adjusted to this change. That is intelligence.

It's doing exactly as it's supposed to do; making adjustments to motor RPMs in order to keep itself on an even keel. But yes, that is pretty intelligent.

Yep my P4 flipped upside down, powered into the ground from over 200 feet, hit on its props and bent all four arms, broke all props and remained powered on! I cleaned off the dirt, replaced props and it also flew fine only the gimbal didn’t fully function. Of course DJI said this was pilot error!!!!! Great drone but horrible support.
Thanks
