    A JOB WELL DONE! Highly recommended! I sent the Mavic down to Thunderdrones, he did the repairs, and she's back in my hands working like new.

    Thanks again. Thunderdrones, I'll PM you to get details on how to get this repair rolling. The drone's doing me no good sitting on my desk broken. :/

    Thanks for the quick reply! I'm definitely interested. Not to be disrespectful, but is there a place where other customers have left feedback / reviews of your work? I see that you're definitely active here and are quite helpful!

    I had my first real crash recently. Ugh. The little plastic piece that holds the gimbal broke, and it looks like the ribbon cable tore ever so slightly. I'm debating about sending this in to DJI for repair vs using a third-party repair place, like these guys: Drone Repair - DJI Phantom Repair...

    I used velcro to attach mine to the side, just in front of the SD card door. Have to remove it obviously to fold the legs up, but the velcro piece doesn't prevent them from folding, and I get no interference errors with this location.

    I'll give it a try! I guess I was under the impression that the bubble is recommended to stay on, but reading more about it, looks like it's a point of contention. :)

    Flicker in lower left?

    Yes. Sorry for not specifying. Gimbal bubble is on. It's done this same flicker at both locations that I've tried, on several different days. At first I was just using default camera settings. I've since adjusted things a bit.

    Flicker in lower left?

    Hi everyone, My Mavic is recording a bad flicker in the lower left part of the frame when pointed toward the sun. I've searched this issue, but I haven't found any examples exactly like what I'm seeing... Is this prop shadow? Any ideas how I can fix this? I've seen lots of sun videos without...
