Hello all -
I've had my Mavic 2 Pro for about a week, and had my first terrifying moment. While showing off my Mavic, I got a bit too cocky and left it in sport mode, so O.A. was off. I bumped my Mavic into my very solid BBQ grill, causing the right front arm to fold back just enough so that the rear prop was able to slice away at the antenna just under the motor. After examining it in panic for about 10 minutes straight, I concluded that it was a small slice, that the antenna is very much intact and not weak in any way, however the prop cut just deep enough to expose a white wire. Looking more closely at it, it appears that the prop only just BARELY sliced into the outer plastic of the wire and did not expose anything inside. The wire is also still firmly in the antenna and is not loose or going anywhere. So right now I have a somewhat noticeable little chunk out of my ant., and had to replace two props.
My question is, I don't need to replace the ant., it's still in fine working order minus really insignificant (pretty sure) cosmetic damage. What should I use to fill the cut made from the prop. just so that I can cover the now exposed wire? If this situation happens ever again, pretty sure that wire will be toast without protection.
Thanks!
