Youre probably not going to find one on Koh Samui but might have some luck in Bangkok. Then they can EMS it to you on Samui.

Do you speak Thai? If so, it would make things easier. Also, Thailand does not readily accept credit cards, so if you do find a shop that sells Mavics, make sure they accept CC or you will have to make a bank transfer or pay cash.

Too bad you just crashed now. I was selling my Mavic when I was in Bangkok last week...

Here is a Bangkok dealer who I bought alot of Trex helicopter parts from, but he also has DJI products:

DJI Mavic Drone (4K Camera Included)

Check these guys out. I used to live in Chiang Mai and they have DJI products. They can ship EMS to Koh Samui, but their prices are a little high because they have to pay import tax, 42,300 baht for a flyless = $1225 usd.

Here is a brand new one for 38,000thb or $1100. Its on a forum in Thailand rcthai.net.

Youre going to need a new gimbal metal stranded cable. That metal stranded cable is hard to find, and most Mavics have to be sent back to DJI for replacement.

The Bangkok shops can ship in one day and you could have it overnighted for not too much money. Its worth a try.

Express Mail in Thailand is only a fraction of the cost of other countries.
 
 
Yeah, it was only 2 ft and not going too fast, but it busted the gimbal wire (it is the thumbnail of the video)
 
Bangkok has a load of Mavics and cash is king as the fly more is up for 48 thousand thai baht for cash right now.

i got mine and it was all set up in store.

he emailed my gf this week to say he had new stock. the store is in Lad prou i think.

The Gf was very impressed by his customer service he offered her free flight lessons and registered the drone did all the updates and adjusted most of the settings including RTH heigts for the loca area.

i can post up the FB page later where i gt mine. In thailand facebook is also king for shopping and almost everything else.

Most stuff is advertised brought and sold on FB with wire transfers or meets arranged and cash but this guy has a shop and is as said great.
