Would be great if we had a little black box to anaylise crashes :)

After repairing from another crash, I had 3 or 4 good flights but then was at about 10 meters and things got weird and it crashed. Hard to tell what happened but the end result was at least a resister and the relay came off the oilpan. Is it worth re-soldering them? I will need to check if anything else came off and check the APM also. Is this something expected to happen from a crash? Can the electronics be put in a shock absorbent box to help prevent this type of damage or would that confuse the gyros?

I've got my motors soldered to the ESCs but 2 of the motors (probably from previous crashes) were noisier than the other 2. Could that have been the cause?

I'm wondering if an octo would be better if this was because of a failed motor.

If I start it up it runs pretty normal but the ADC chip is partially off it's place so it doesn't auto stabilize. Should I try to re-solder the ADC on or can I send it back for repair?
