My lens keep unscrewing itself mid flight. This time it straight up ejected itself.
#Well uh, this ain't good.

Can't you just screw it back in
Or is the camera case broken? Had that happen to me I just glued it and screwed the lens back in

tbh that sensor seems exposed
it is but if it is not touched it wil be fine

it is but if it is not touched it wil be fine

It does look like it just came unscrewed. try screwing it in and see if it works. you will have to refocous it.

I ended up fixing it. Thank y'all for the help. Turns out, yeah it just worked itself loose since I've honestly beaten the crap out of it flying. Might start getting replacement parts for it. More then just props
Unsure what I should be concerned about breaking first though.

loctite it
it won't fly out as easily next time
loctite on the screw part (a little don't get it on the sensor) and e6000 the rim if you really want it to never move

Locktite desolves plastic and can offgas, which would fog the sensor, lens, and eat the lock ring.
Best to use something like E6000 on the outside bridging across the lockring and camera body, and not on the threads.

So just to double check this. (since I just got superglue 
)
It best to put the superglue here.

if all you have is superglue, then don't use any glue. It can also fog up the sensor and the lens, and will make it impossable to fix the focous if that goes out.
Just make sure once you have it in focous, that lock ring is tight, and check it every couple flights to make sure it stays tight and in focous.

Ah so same issue as the loctite huh. Good thing I held off then. I'll grab some e6000 next time and try that, since I think you recommended that before.

super glue is bad for what Lorin said and it's horribly brittle
don't use it on drone stuff, it'll crack on the first impact

Hotglue works wonders.. It's strong and flexible enough yet relatively easy to peel off when/if you to.
It's just not that pretty.

Ah hotglue, the best of glues.

Random question for you. I was browsing and saw this build for sale. What do you think of it?
He's asking 100$ but I just don't know enough to make a decision on it.
pearl crow
if the build is solid and not trashed thats a very good setup
like pretty much top tier whoop stuff

looks pretty reasonable 🤷♂️

Lowkey was boutta pull the trigger on the mob and saw this.

I'd fly the props off that. not a bad deal at all. But what Radio reciever did they use?
