Had a mishap on Sunday doing a POI flight. Running the flight round an old and ancient tree when towards the end the drone came into contact with a twig sticking out from a tree nearby and that was enough to send the drone to the groun from about 10feet.
Not visibly badly damaged, just a small crack on the upper shell at one motor mount, but the gimbal/camera no longer work. When turned on the drone makes the right noises but the gimbal doesn't move and keeps giving three beeps.

Luckily I have insurance!

The flight log.
