Hi All,

I am hoping someone may be able to help.

So problem is while not watching what I was doing I installed a new SD card which appears to be now stuck, I may have inserted it upside down not real sure as I wasn't paying attention. I know I'm an idiot. Any suggestions on how to remove this as I can't grab it with hands or small tweezers.

Help please

Cheers

The only thing I can think to do is to use a pin and carefully try to lever the card up from each end a bit at a time. Just hope you haven't damaged your card or the spring mechanism in the sd card slot.

Very, very carefully you could try superglue on a very small paper clip, you need hands of a surgeon.

Yikes. That might require disassembly of the Mavic to get at, which possibly invalidates your warranty?

Might be worth sending in to a service center if the above video scares you, or if you can confirm whether opening up the Mavic will invalidate your warranty.

Good luck.

I will give a couple of these a go not going to look into opening up just yet, I'll have to try this next week as I'm at work in the USA and the mavic is tucked up at home in UK.
I will post later with result good or bad.

Any other tips welcome not worried about damaging the card just not the drone.

Cheers all
