I knew the risk going into this, but did it anyway. Been using my Mavic 2 Pro to illuminate areas while taking long exposure pics for a few weeks now, and the results have been pretty cool.
But I got the idea to use color changing LED light strips, so last night I zip-tied them onto my Mavic Pro Platinum and started taking 30 second exposure pics. It was going pretty well until a cable or light got sucked into the props and caused the MPP to crash into a tree.
The Good News: 1. I got it on camera 2. I think fixing the drone will be cheap and simple.
Here's the 30 second long exposure of my MPP crashing.

Here's the damage.![broken vibration dampening plate.jpg broken vibration dampening plate.jpg](https://mavicpilots.com/data/attachments/102/102520-deb2f76048f58b204851a2dd9059976f.jpg)
Would you fix this Vibration Dampening Plate with something similar like this?
Or should I take this opportunity to upgrade to an aluminum plate like this one?
Also, thanks to Bret8883 for helping me identify the parts needed in this thread. Broken Gimbal/Vibration Dampening Plate. Easy fix???
But I didn't want to post any of my pics there since it's a crash thread.
