Had a phantom branch take me out today. Luckily only prop damage and was able to recover the drone. My neighbors were nice to let me go into their backyard.
Drone crash from phantom branch.

Yeah it was on their roof but and I tried to arm it again but then the video feed stopped right after take off, luckily it was still in their backyard. The battery came loose from all of the tumbling and finally disconnected when I tried to take off again. Luckily only damage was the props. Those branches with the time of day and light outside blended in with the asphalt from the street, was hard to see until it was too late.Ugh, looks like it was on thier roof

Well thankfully my neighbors are cool. Before I found it I was looking around next to the homes and I did have someone ask what I was doing which is completely understandable. When I went up to the front door and asked them if they heard any thump and they said yes, I told them that it could have been my drone. I told them I lived in the area and they said go ahead and check out the backyard through the side gate and thank god it was there, I even found the battery in the bushes. The crazy thing is that once this dvr clip ended I still have video so I tried to take off again but right at arm up and Iifted the feed cut so the actuall drone fell off the patio cover and it was on the ground that is why I could not see it from the street.At least they didn't give you h#LL!
