Dunked Drone Salvage

This is the follow up video to the one where I dunked my drone in the river. I shook out most of the water from the drone and battery, wrapped them in a towel until I got home and stuck them in a warm closet where I have other electronics running. The next day the battery would turn on and I put it on a charger. The left rear motor of the drone had a seized bearing so I had to order another arm. After removing some parts of the skin so I could locate all the screws, I replaced the arm and soldered the 6 new wires in place.

Looks like she'll fly to fight another day!!
