So, being the inveterate battery limit pusher, I crashed my Anafi as it showed 5% battery. It prolly dropped from 300' or so, and bounced a couple feet in the air when it hit. I taped the two damaged legs together, and began replacing the props, but one screw was bent, so that the prop did not spin freely, so it's grounded. Found a replacement on eBay for $432 shipped.
So, learn from my tale and don't be caught in the air with less than 10% battery showing. At least that's my new policy. This happened back in July, and was covered under warranty, but the warranty is up, so the learning curve is more painful.
It was beautiful weather, and my client is going to get their shots over a week late, which is not good. All because I wanted to squeeze a bit more footage out of the battery!
