Dear fellow pilots-
My Mavic Air 1 (I know it's not actually denominated with a 1 but just put it there for clarity) had a minor run in with some tree foliage and tumbled to the ground from about 5 meters / 16 feet. There was no harm done and after recalibrating the vision sensors it flies and records like a charm. Only the plastic right rear landing foot broke, with that I mean only the plastic part at the bottom of the arm which covers the motor housing from the bottom side and functions as the landing leg.
I contacted DJI support to ask if they could just send me the part since this is just a simple clip-on, but you can probably guess the answer that I have been suggested to send in the whole drone for repair. This feels like overkill for something this minor. Now I found some potential replacement parts on our local version of ebay here but only for the left rear arm and not the right. What I am curious about is if the right and left back landing feet are the same part or if there is a specific left and right version?
Hope I can leverage some of the collective experience out there?
Cheers, Roberto
