I have read on this forum some time ago that any crash after which the drone is still flying can be considered successful. Well, mine had an unsuccessful crash this this week then.
It flew into a thin wire that even me hadn't seen before it flew into it. The battery immediately detached from the drone and it felt on the road from approximately 4 meters. It was really hard to watch :-(
There was a really big snow this day on the ground and if it hit the ground 1m further, it will probably survive the crash "landing" in a big and soft snowdrift. But it chose the road.
Two of the bootom cameras broke as well as two propellers. One engine seems to spin harder that three others (with fingers). Gimbal camera did not broke and detach from the drone, but the gimbal is holding much more loosely than before. The drone starts up and connects via WiFi to phone, but after the calibration it reports a Gimbal error. The battery box also broke in two places, but it works too, when connected to drone (it charges, turns the drone on).
AFAIK, there are no replacement parts for S2 available anywhere (or am I wrong?), so there is little-to-no chance I will manage to fly with it anymore.
Well, short but great adventure. I'm really upset now, but no regrets. I'm glad I took the risk as this drone is amazing. Looking for a new one.
