AAIB investigation to Parrot Anafi USA, (UAS registration n/a) 190221
Uncontrolled flight into trees, Fareham, Hampshire, 19 February 2021.
Summary:
A failure of the bonding between two halves of the front left propeller arm may have caused the unmanned aircraft to repeatedly lose control in flight until it collided with trees. The aircraft was substantially damaged.
The manufacturer has notified the five other UK owners of the Parrot Anafi USA aircraft to inspect the propeller arms and return the aircraft to their supplier for replacement propeller arms if the bonding problem is identified.
