Hello. I have a Phantom 4 that I got a little close to a tree (just before leaves grew this spring), and it caught a small branch, flipped over, caught itself and went back to same spot... Before I could react to try and shut it down or back it out, it did it again, and to my luck, the battery came out and it fell about 5 feet. Very little damage (except my pride), two rotors were chewed up and it had two small cracks in shell. No big deal.
The issue I have had since is the vision positioning, obstacle avoidance and seemingly radar do not work at all. The screen no longer shows the object avoidance level bars. What seems different than anybody else's issues, is the phantom does not say anything is wrong. It is noticeably Unstable taking off, and hovering at low altitudes is not precise anymore (lurches and moves around). To land, I have to grab it out of the air as if I try and land, it comes close to falling over when shutting down. Taking off is a little scary as it is not nearly as nimble. If I fly it close to something, it has no clue and if I was to keep going, it would fly through objects.
I did listen to phantom instructions where it said sometimes you have to recalibrate when there is a crash, but when I try plugging into the dji2 program on a windows computer, it doesn't acknowledge it plugged in and says I have a problem with external drive (computer does realize something was plugged in, it just doesn't know what to do with it). Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!
