Ok. After inserting the wire where you saidZ It snapped in easily. I took it outside, turned on, calibrated the compass and it all seemed fine. Unfortunately I wont be able to put the props on until Sunday and check if it is working.
There might be sand in one of the engines, should i take compressed air and shot it out?

Yes, while turning the shaft. And hopefully the compass does work, cause if it fails while far away that is a big problem!
If everything works fine (i did notice every second or two on my phone display when i tested it there was like this small little lag) should i keep flying? What would your advise be?
Replace the compass ASAP. I destroyed mine doing the same thing, and it failed. Good thing it was close. It is only $12 to replace, drone (???)
Those wires looked pretty chewed up. I would replace both the compass and antenna before flying. Why risk your bird for some relatively cheap parts that are critical to flight?
Where can purchase these antennas a friend of mine broke one off in a crash
Yes, open the top shell part. Compass plugs into the main board. Easy to do once you get the halves parted. You'll need a plastic pc. to not damage the parts. Look on you tube for videos on it. This tool set makes it as easy as it can be.:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009MKGRQA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
If you buy the landing gear set, the compass is already installed in the leg, just plug it in.: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Z2TQW42/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
