I've been so impressed with my mini. Range could be better, but I've only had it to 200' max. I've been pushing the MM further and higher as I grow more familiar with it's limitations AND my skill level.
Then it happened. After buzzing around out to 2000' I brought it home with battery to spare. Then, decided to make a trip down my dirt road. I was flying low to get under the tree limbs. Then, as the road opened up I took it to about 10'. I smacked a power cable to a trailer that was strung low and across the road! It was like being clothes-lined. It must have hit the drone right in the camera.
The MM seemed fine, then I realized the plastic gimbal mount was broken and one of the rubber vibration dampeners was missing. *sigh* Thank God I purchased the Care Refresh service plan. It looked like an easy fix, but I didn't want to void anything if I ever have to send it in again.
On a side note, it appears my only option was a repair and not another drone. I guess depending on what you select as your issue determines your repair/replace status.
I hope they get my MM back to me soon!
