Recommendations on repairing Mavic Pro Platinum on my own?

[Mxjagracer]

Hi guys

The other day, after weeks of watching YouTube videos on scrolling this forum, I took my Pro Platinum on its first flight. And I found out what the "fly here".... right into a light pole. Which might have been for the best because otherwise it wouldve ended up in the trees lol. Damage: cracked body in multiple places and one decent sized hole. My question is, how difficult is it to replace the body? It seems to be functioning fine otherwise. I have some pretty good mechanical aptitude and used to install car audio as a part time job. Not really sure if its related or not lol. I opened a ticket with DJI Drone repair, and I would rather just send it to them. Is anyone familiar with their repair costs?

Does anyone have a suggestion as to where to get a new body and/or accessories?

Parts are available on the internet if that’s the route you take. Also there is this member. May be easier than the DJI route.

Something that seems to help on tinkering with all these flying cameras.

Will probably be the route I go. When I stated about the dji drone repair, i misspoke. It is the djidroneservice guys I opened a ticket with. I was meaning to call them today to see if they were still operating... What with the virus and all... Thank you for looking out!

Comes in a nice box. That was the selling feature.
Just for my tinkering. I don’t do major repair stuff. That’s for the experts.

I'm a electronics tech and have taken apart every drone I have ever had except the mavic pro platinum and Dji is alot like apple I reccomend not to do it for this reason the risk is high vs it's flys ok as is get some good epoxy and epoxy it I can't stress enough how the risk out weighs the gain
