Just wondering about the durability of my new Mavic Pro.

What is the worst crash you have had with no prop damage or other damage?
 
Howdy MinneapolisFlyGuy, if you graze something with the drone, the props they will be damaged and have to be replaced. Just about any crash will cause prop damage. Other than that the gimbal is the next liability, a drop from five feet or so may make it go wonky. It is a durable little guy other than that.

View the comment I have just added in relation to gimbal protection. One less thing (expensive) to worry about
 
I have a controlled crash on every flight. I call it landing. So far about 200+ no damage.

Yea. From the other day. Had flew my path several times
and just knew I had it down so I tryed something at my Lake
place and this happened. Was all me , over confident .
Walked to it and was sitting like it would taking off with 3 lights. Just picked it up ,walked back up hill and fired it up
And flew up and down driveway low. Hurt nothing.

Grabbed this from app and slowed it down.

Only crash I've had so far was in my living room. I left it hovering with the controller on my coffee table. My dog decided to have some fun. He stuck a paw on the controller and bounced my Mavic off a light fixture, the wall, and then augerred in behind my couch. Just a few scuffs on the props, but no damage.

Don't let your dog fly.
