    DJI Mavic Air, crashed, arm popped off

    Wow, that's an incredible video! So cool that someone put all that time into making it. I think that's beyond my skill set, but I also am not sure that's what I need to do. Nothing on the arm actually seems broken the way it looks in the video, it seem to have just become disconnected. I may...

    DJI Mavic Air, crashed, arm popped off

    Thanks! It's odd, it doesn't really seem broken, just like it popped off. It's just when I try to reinsert it, the spring compresses but there's no "catch"

    DJI Mavic Air, crashed, arm popped off

    Hey, I have a DJI Mavic AIr. I had a crash, and it looks like one of the arms popped off. Doesn't seem to snap back on, cable is intact. Didn't want to try to push too hard, seems to be some sort of spring mechanism in the socket. Any ideas what to try? See photo.

    Advice on FPV upgrade

    Good point. I could just pick up the used Mavic Air replacement for $300 and fly that for now... Thanks!

    Advice on FPV upgrade

    Gotcha, thanks! That would be a BIG advantage, to be able to see the world as well. Any downside to these? Problem if you wear glasses? Do the DJI goggles give you a more immersive experience by blocking out the outside?

    Advice on FPV upgrade

    Great, thanks again! So maybe a good way to start would be: 1) Get the used Mavic Air to replace my dead one. 2) Get the DJI goggles (Does the better latency in the RE version make much of a difference?) 3) If I like this, I can upgrade to a better drone and goggles. I appreciate your help

    Advice on FPV upgrade

    Thanks so much! So the stock controller that comes with the Mavic Air doesn't have HDMI? If I just wanted to try FPV out with my current setup at minimal cost (assuming that I get that used Mavic Air to replace mine), I can use the DJI goggles and not need anything else? If I bought any...

    Advice on FPV upgrade

    Hi, I got a Mavic Air a year and a half ago and I loved it. Recently, was setting up for a low shot over the incoming surf, and a big wave hit it. The drone returned to home, but was clearly water damaged with salt water. I tried a few things (distilled water rinse, alcohol, drying chamber...
