After a recent collision with a tree my magic air rear port side arm is disconnected from the main body at the hinge point. Everything else seems to work fine and props engage on start up however the arm is loose. Anyone have any experience. It looks like it should just pop back on but I can’t get it to. Pic included for detail. If anyone has any advice, other than avoid trees, it

I had the same problem a month ago. You have to be very tech savvy to fix this yourself. To put the hinge screws back into the body you have to first remove the arm. This can only be done by unsoldering the wires to the arm inside the body of the Mavic Air and that requires taking the top cover off, then remove another cover, take out the GPS/IMU circuit board to expose the arm wire connection. Oh and your warranty will be void.DSC02088.JPG
