Wow. I wouldn't have thought a single motor out would cause that violent of a flip on a hexa. Ken, can you be certain the ESC didn't burn up after impact?

What could DJI have done in ways of redundancy to prevent a crash caused by a faulty ESC!?

Ken maybe the damaged esc was a result of the firmware flashing removing some overload protection thresholds. One of the reasons I changed direction and got the Herkules boards.
Ken, just to clarify, did the fast PWM firmware improve performance? If so, will you miss it?
Understood. What happened with the quad that got dunked? Were you able to dry it out?
The quad should be fine. I put it on a shelf under one of the heating ducts, should probably put a battery on it and try it out today. Pretty simple setup, KK board with 4 ESCs and motors, other than water getting under the shrinkwrap on the ESCs not much else to worry about, a little WD40 in the motors and relube the bearings, go fly...
