Update i contacted Yuneec took them two days to reply, Going back to my old days of working in real electronics. I used to get people coming to me asking if i could fix something they accidentally given a drink. Computer keyboards was a popular one, water is actually that conductive especially...

I have thought about doing that but not sure how it comes apart.

First crash in ages, and into a river. I was suprised that the lights stayed on the river water must have been reasonably clean. I let thing dry out for a few days before trying to fly again. It turned on but could not get it to connect to hand set or ipad, and the back blue lights were...

30 degrees by the looks of it

Well since getting it back from repair it has been great no crashes, flys beatifully. The parrot used to be able to do flips woundering if it’s possible with the mantis?

Yes maiden flight was real fun, can’t find how to adjust the speed of rotation or tilt in the ap. The Parrot had that?

Well finally got the result. Yuneec agreed with the warranty, KAV fixed it and i am flying again. Really have to say KAV are really good.

Can you change all the speeds of rotation, tilt etc? of the mantis q, the parrot had that function with the ap

No that’s so wrong what happened to the customer is always right, and no i was not rude.

I just find in general how these things are put together the parrot, well the crossbar and how it was attached just awefull. The mantis Q positioning of the camera makes it prone to damage even with normal landing. I am an engineer, designed stuff not fail.

actually have over 500 hours of flying. But when a drone just gives up and falls to the ground hardly my fault. The Mantis Q was much easier to calibrate but was stable the not again hardly my problem.

So my flying career with a Parrot, it suddenly quit mid air and was dead, thinking that their support would get it fixed. After 8 weeks of them wanting more and more information about the damage i gave up. Someone told me about the mantis q, how good it was. On the first flight it went haywire...
