Ok, so I was an idiot and flew my drone inside a room with about 25 foot ceiling to get a picture of something, and something happened (maybe the wind from the propellers pushed it?) and the darn thing ran into the walls and came crashing down. I'm a decent flyer but it all happened so quick I couldn't do anything about it. The unit came crashing down hard; The battery flew out and it chipped a propeller.
The unit itself is fine (battery works fine now), but I did lose two of the white screws that connects the base to the unit (if that makes sense). However, when turning it back on I now have a red triangle on the app next to "Gimbal Motor Overload." When I click on it, it reads "GMO. Check if the gimbal clamp is mounted off." I've looked the thing over and I can't see any noticeable difference, but not sure I have what it looked liked memorized enough to know. Also, when I listen closely it sounds like the camera is making a sound and the camera portion is absolutely smoking hot - almost too hot too touch.
When I get back to the main screen where the camera angle would normally work, the upper left hand corner (where it reads GPS or whatever) is reading "Gimbal Motor Overload." You can see a very dark image from the camera, but not much. Any thoughts on what I can do or what to do next? Send it in for servicing? (I searched for this issue on the site but couldn't find anything.)
Thanks
