Hi all!

Merry Christmas. That's what I was thinking while enjoying flying my Mavic Pro in Southern Spain when I collided in a very stupid way at around 8-12m height.

Mavic violently fell braking off one wing, and damiging the other. ddddd.png

Fortunately... I think everything else is fine miracoulously. Other two wings and the gimbal seem intact. I checked in the service repair for repair prices and wings are 45$ each.

What is the average cost of official repair in these kind of circumstances? Asumming only the wings are damaged... I suppose there is a fixed fee per repair plus handwork.

Happy flying and thank you!

Kind regards,

Fernando,

That is a real bummer!  Sorry for your accident.
Can you tell us the circumstances of your accident?  Really might be a learning tool for other pilots to avoid doing something similar.
As far as the repair at DJI....really depends.....they check the craft completely and might or might not find additional damage.  Hard to estimate a accurate cost range.
Good Luck and let us know how things turn out!
