I was on my 4 or 5 flight, had a child run into me while operating at low alt. Long story short casued me to go back on the sticks hit a limb and my bird fell from about 13'-15' landed hard on rear landing gear causing crack on rear short carbon fiber tube, and cracked the gimbal mount in half... All parts still work including gimbal connecton, camera, motors, etc.. I only need a gimbal mount, not mount with gimble connection for 80.00 bucks.. does anyone know where I can get just the mount? also can I epoxy the crack in my landing gear tube? I do not need a complete leg for 300+... Please help, have a job sunday. Super glue may have to work on the mount.

You will need the whole motor arm. They are not hard to replace at all, the hard tedious thing is soldering the antenna....its a pain and you can mess it up in a split second if you do not know what you are doing.
DJI is getting much better with turnaround time and the cost to fix those is minimal.

I would send it in for repair, you don't know if there is any internal damage.

Pretty much when it crashed you voided the warranty for items broken caused by the crash. BUT I'm not in the warranty department so I can't say what exactly what is covered and what is not.
Better to call support tomorrow 818-235-0789 and speak to them.

I've flown helicopters and airplanes that after a few years were 50% glue so if I were you I would epoxy away!!

If you can't do without it, band-aid away. I would get it into DJI repair asap.
