I searched for a while to try and find related articles- didn't see anything- sorry if this is a redundant request!

What do you guys think about this. No crashes, or hard landings, but my Inspire 1 Pro has developed about an 1/8" gap on the right side of its frame. I've attached photos to better describe what's going on. Should I be sending this bird back to DJI for repair? I haven't noticed any changes in flight, but I don't want this gap to widen any further :/

Thanks in advance!

Definitely doesn't look right. I'd be worried if that was happening to mine.

Get onto online tech support and link them to this thread.

No good. Can you force it back? If you can, it's still no good to fly and the issue need to be addressed.

Is your bird still on warranty? If it's not, you may be able to tighten the clamp screw hidden behind DJI sticker (if there's any). In any case DON'T let the clamp slip off the serrated shaft - you'll loose the alignment.

Thanks for the quick replies guys! I've only had this one since the beginning of April, so I'm still under warranty. I'll contact DJI and see what they have to say.

Appreciate it!
