    I recently crashed pretty hard - DJI replaced the Mavic 2 Pro with the insurance. The brand new drone I received now keeps freezing with the video and the distance measurements ( will stay on 800 ft and then jump to 1200 ft ). With RTH the drone flew right overhead but when it started its...

    d'oh - crash

    I would like to correct / amend my earlier statement about DJI insurance.... I had an " Ohh S**T " moment a few weeks back. Sent the Mavic 2 Pro to DJI for repairs. Since I had the DJI Care Refresh coverage.. It cost me $119 usd and they sent me a BRAND NEW Mavic 2 Pro with props and all (...

    I would think, if you were to speak with the air crews directly - - they would be overly happy to sit down with you since after all... it is more so involving their personal safety. There are no restrictions in writing any longer - - many on this forum always revert to you should use "common...

    The DJI insurance is not the greatest ! I would recommend getting with Allstate or other insurance companies which have a great feedback on this forum for paying a claim. Smash your drone - they buy you a new one

    DJI Keep Flying (insurance)

    DJI policy here in the states says FREE repair / replacement along with free shipping I'm trying to argue it out but I guess I'm kinda feeling like I should not have to result to that. I am a real A**hole when it comes to things like this and many time - I believe I succeed only because the...
