if you only break a single arm, send it to DJI to repair - it only costs about $100 to repair. this is what I did, and they sent me a brand new drone!
(I didnt bother using my care refresh, as thats got an excess of over $200, so I saved that for a bigger crash ;) )
as for using a traditional drone ... sorry they are not the same.
Ive got a diatone roma f5 with air unit and i love it... its crazy fun, stable, awesome fun to fly,
however, even with crossfire, its not as reliable for longer flights, the battery (1300mah, 6s) , doesnt last as long, and gps rescue is a bit of a lottery.
... and the air unit is good as far as it goes, but the quality and signal is not as good as the dji fpv.
(oh, and the traditional drone + batteries + charger + controller, was no cheaper than the dji fpv drone)
the DJI FPV is great for crusing around (in M mode) enjoying the scenery, diving low... but for sure you have to take care.
so I dont think they are really that comparable
they are both really fun, but for different reasons and different purposes.
I fly the diatone everyday through small gaps, trees , doing acro - and survive crashes - its a thrill
the dji fpv drone, I fly more casually, take a few less risks - its all about the immersive nature of fpv, not sport/acro/freestyle
