Hi all, I may have found an answer to my Inspire 1 inverting, and if what I suspect is correct it might not bode well for anyone with a higher mileage Inspire. I pulled the drone out today to sift through its remains, - I'm selling it on a local (New Zealand) auction site and questions have been...

The ochre colour on its body is from the clay tiles it fell onto into on the roof of my house. Thanks for everyones input on this thread.

Here we go. My stuffed I spire 1, I got round to taking some pics, it's in storage in my garage so had to unearth it. I have no plan to resurrect it, I couldn't trust it not to pile into my house again. Or onto my car or a spectating family member.

I don't know about a loose prop, I don't think any motors were running after the three bursts of activity. One second hovering, the next second falling silently immediately after the three momentary bursts of sound from them. Thanks for the replies. I'm not cut up about losing the Inspire, the...
