Hi guys and girls,
I had a little crash today while trying out a new app (the vertical studio) while flying and looking at the camera feed, I did not notice because I flew backwards keeping myself in focus (on a small golf course) the unit got caught up in the net and it kind of got hung up. (it would have fallen anyway) I did a CSC at an instant and it landed on its back (fortunately). that was the good news because the gimbal did not get damaged at all. BUT
the back (top cover cracked, the nosecone need replacement and the supports for the top cover broke away. (would try to superglue it - will post pics beforehand) now, the bird does fly ok and everything works fine. after taking off the top and cable out of the GPS I noticed that the cover box of the servo for the legs hat sort of broken into the GPS from servo side (underside of the GPS) there is a hole in the GPS aluminum housing but works fine. had a bunch of SAT´s and holding position was also ok.
now the question:
should I superglue the supports, exchange the nose and top cover and GPS or should I send it in for repair.
any suggestions and tips or advices are welcome. pics will follow.
cheers.
