Aloha spark pilots,
Was flying this morning and had a run in with some lava rock! The drone only fell a foot or two at the most. When I recovered the spark, I noticed one of the light caps came off. After scavenging the area I was unable to recover the missing piece. The good news is the spark went undamaged minus the lost cap and was able to fly again immediately. The bad news, I'm short one cap and some minor scuffs on the propellor.
As of the time writing this, DJI after service hours are unavailable to live chat. I'm hoping I don't have to send the spark back and they can send a replacement part? Any thoughts are appreciated?
To clarify why I crashed, I turned off obstacle avoidance and tried going between two rock stacks to get what I'd hope was a great video. Little wind got me and down she went. Spark took the tumble like a champ.
