[QUOTE="Earthman, post: 85616, member: 16717"] It’s likely that spending 8-months outside in the weather has messed with the electronics. At this point it may be a long shot, but try putting it in a sealed, gallon-sized, ziplock bag with some desiccant or instant rice for a day to to dry it out. Wrap the drone in a paper towel to keep the rice out of the moving parts. If using desiccant, I assume it’s contained. If not, use the paper towel. Also, calibrate the IMU and compass. If this doesn’t help, send it in for repairs. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
