Flying my DJI Mavic 4 pro no wind drone took off as normal then at about 30meter altitude drops out of the sky straight into a salt water river. Find my drone give last position. Notice on the ground in front a intact rotor. After waiting 6 hours till tide drops locate my drone. still under warranty lost all the footage from the weekend. on inspecting the left rear arm which had snapped with the impact looked at the actual rotor housing itself. as you can see from the pic one rotor attached securely and no damage but where the second rotor would have been attached there is nothing left. the drone did not hit any obstruction during its flight. drones is going off to DJI but anyone had the same issue where the attachment is completely gone, Just curious if anyone has any theories??
drone has around 60 hours flight time.
