Took a flight Christmas night across the 3/4 mile wide river at my house. Flew a little over a mile and tried to bring it home. I couldn't get it to return home and it auto landed on a warehouse roof because the battery was exhausted. At that point it wouldn't have made it back over the river anyway. There was no access that night or Sunday so the bird spent the night there. We had a pretty decent rain that night. Long story short, after many attempts to have the warehouse maintenance guy retrieve it, I finally went up and got it myself on Tuesday. That's 25 days on a roof. Luckily there wasn't much precip in that time and the bird looks in good shape. Battery that was on board took a charge and held it. Bird has been sitting near a heat vent for 3 days. So .... Do I take the top off and examine the guts ? I figure if it's completely dry I won't fry anything but I'm a bit apprehensive about running a current through. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
