Good day to everyone!
I experienced my first crash after owning my first Mini 3 Pro for 2 years. And you guessed it, it was for a "money shot".
That got me pretty bummed for the past few weeks because I tried to DIY it by replacing broken mechanical parts but to no avail. I'm a DIY guy but this complex piece of technology is way over my league.
Browsing through, this forum and its members have been super helpful so far to convince me to finally send it to a DJI Authorized Service Center.
We don't have DJI Care here in the Philippines so I'm pretty sure my repair would cost a lot. I'm thinking about just cutting my losses and selling it for parts when I get a huge quotation.
I'm just so mad at myself for thinking that I was flying safe enough. I have been following my checklists all the time whenever I fly but I didn't know what got into my head that day.
Ironically however, here's a drone safety video I posted on Instagram.
I'm so glad to be a part of this forum so I could hopefully avoid my mistakes in the future (especially since I'm planning on flying FPV!). Here's to more interesting conversations!
