Hello to all. Today my hexa has crashed due to a broken esc wire. Probably due to vibrations it has broken inside the insulation and I couldn't detect it in my inspections.
I realize that something was wrong when it suddenly banked. I was at low altitude and hadn't had time to switch to stabilize. I've tried to command it to go up but id didn't went up. Instead it kept descending slow and steady until it crashed.

Analyzing the logs, I noticed that the other 4 motors hadn't increased their power. I would expect them to increase it in order to keep flying so I could command an RTL, even if I have to loose yaw authority.I would kindly ask your help in order to tune it to be more reliable against motor failures. What can be done? What can I do and pehaps test it to make sure that it can fly with 5 motors?
Many thanks in advance!
PS; No major damages besides my expensive HK multistar wooden propellers.
