Crashed my Mavic Pro

[antmanv1]

But the good news is that I got it all on video. It was pilot error. I eased too close to a tree and vertically climbed right into a branch. DJI's excellent software led me right to the crashed bird where I recovered it and the separated battery in bushes. After assessing damage it appears that the only damage sustained was all the props and the gimbal vibration bracket. And a big dent in the rear body. The total cost of parts about $30. Where can I obtain a repair manual for a Mavic Pro?
Thanks.

Only place I know of is to print it from the DJI website.

Sorry, thought you were looking for the owner manual.

there is no official repair manual for the drone as DJI don't want you opening it up yourself, that's why they put anti tamper glue into some of the screws that hold it together, to show it has been opened,there are plenty of videos on the web on how to repair different issues as the result of a crash, if you have care refresh you would be better using that if the drone is new

There are quite a number of "complete tear down" videos on youtube. Should be good references

Thanks. Another site I found helpful is Ifixit.com. I've been using them for cell phone repair and other electronics. I found several tutorials for the Mavic Pro. I'm now just waiting for the body shell to come from Amazon.
Attached are pix of the crash site and the drone damage. Parts came to about $30 on amazon. They are pretty reasonable. It's even cheaper if you order from China but I don't want to wait that long.

there is none, it is one of the reasons they are called the apple of the drones, however if you can find the parts you should be able to do it without to much trouble.

Thanks.

So, I found another issue from the crash. The front left axis pin which holds the arm in place shears so I ordered a new one. About $9 on Amazon. $3 from China if you want to wait weeks.

Here's a picture of the front left arm attach point where the broken axis pin was located.
