    Phantom 4 Shell and Forward Sensor Replacement... because I messed up

    Hi all, So, I'm a total newbie here and I had to join for a rather unfortunate reason. While doing some filming today with a few cars I made a rookie mistake, and crashed my P4 after making contact with some leaves on a tree branch. Got too focused on what was happening on screen and backed the...

    Is DJI Repairing the Correct Parts??

    I started up my P3P and took off with the gimbal cover still on (stupid I know but was looking at a shot I wanted that was gone to be a quick up, shoot and back down). As soon as it was airborne I realized and brought it back down. By then the damage was already done. The gimbal would click...

    Post Crash advice needed

    Hello, I crashed my P3P after several weeks of non-flying. The drone hit a tree, got tangled in the branches, snapped a propellor and had a reasonably cushioned and lucky crash landing. Having cleaned it up and replaced the props, I tried flying it again and it works, but drifts quite badly...

    ALL PHANTOMS - How much does DJI diagnostics cost?

    Hi all, you may be aware that I had a battery failure (cut out when I flicked return-to-home). Of course I believe that the repair should be free. However if I am blamed for some peculiar reason, I have the option for repair but I also HAVE to pay for the diagnostics cost on top of postage. I'm...

    An update to my mad canal story

    Just an update people, I've tried to contact DJI about possible repair work on the drone. They were extremely slow to reply to me and after sending back this repair word document I've not had a reply in a week. I've sent them multiple emails asking if they received my emails but I'm not getting...

    Do I need a wifi cable replacement?

    Wrecked my P3 Standard into a tree and it fell 8 feet after the computer didn't counteract to wind very well. Anyways, it ripped the camera and gimbal off and stripped out a ribbon cable and what I believe are the wifi cables. It also broke the baseplate. I ordered new anti-drop pins, a cable...

The propellers were in bad shape and afterward I hear a clicking / hissing sound from the motors during startup and shutdown. I...
