So I took my Phantom 4 out for the first time in 3 weeks (been on the road filming) and when I got back I got it out to clean off the bug splatter. I noticed something that was never an issue...


I didn't have a hard landing and went back to look for it where I landed. I'm hoping this is an easy fix? It looks like it's a piece that does come off. How it did, I have no clue. Gonna have to call in the morning.

Do you know if you can get replacements? I can't find the one that came off.

I too have had mine come loose from who knows what. I luckily haven't lost them and saw that they were coming off so I snapped them back in place.  I would email DJI and see if they have them. I am sure they do.

I don't think there are replacement available but when the landing gear go on sale, they will be included with them..

Chances are someone will make 3D printed ones and charge the earth for them also..

How about a bit of sticky tape to ensure they don't fall off.

Could pretend they were 'go faster' strpies

You can complain all you want, people are still going to buy the product.

I am not complaining, I am just stating that for the money the craftsmanship could be a little bit better? In fact, I might buy one myself in the near future.

Regardless, anything you buy is going to have some kind of flaw. Whether it be right after you buy it, or a year after you buy it.
