Had my first mishap today.
I’ve done a few test flights. Gotten used to sports mode in some wide open space.
Took the spark to the rivermouth and was enjoying getting some super low altitude, super fast footage of the sandbank.
Then of course the terrain changed and at that speed no obstacle avoidance, Nd of course poor piloting. Boom!

Did a few flips, hovered , and then I set her down

Powered down, blew and shook all the sand out. Disconnected the battery and then took her home, brushed all the sand out.

Installed battery, and flew around the garden
Everything is fine!

Lucky!

I love this thing.

Glad to hear all is well friend. Maybe redo your IMU configuration just to make sure all is well for your future flights
