Darn that's a shame.

Still, this is Argos we're talking about - I could probably return my broken one for a refund lol

No, I sold the remote and two batteries. I was going to bin the drone but still have it boxed up.

Thats an idea - have no idea how to price it. Any suggestions for a Mavic Air 2 with about £400 of work needed to make it fly?

Id look at what parts are saveable and then see what those parts go for.

Perhaps they need to make the drone out of aluminium for extra strength

Or carbon fibre but that will probably double the price.

or FRP maybe. might be too heavy though.

I'm sure the materials will upgrade over time with future released. Other manufacturers are using carbon fibre now but at a massive cost

As they get smaller the material cost should come down too.
