[QUOTE="csnyphoto, post: 106700, member: 19438"] Well some excellent news all, the drone was found!!! And thanks to your analysis it was recovered at the exact address you highlighted. I rang all the doorbells on the block last week and I made up fliers to leave in people's mailboxes that weren't home. One night I got a call from the one homeowner that received my flier. He said "I found your drone on my front sidewalk," and that he saw on high surveillance cameras that it descended to about three feet and hovered until it hit the railing on his front steps and then fell to the ground. Miraculously, the only casualty to it was a broken propeller and it still powered on even though it was out in heavy rain for 24 hours! There are still good people in the world and now I can sleep at night because the mystery was solved! However I am still concerned about flying it now because I don't want it to happen again. I don't know if it is now defective or not but I definitely wouldn't want to go thru this again. Could the aircraft now be defective? Any and all thoughts appreciated. [/QUOTE]
