anyone have the issue of the SD card not ejecting when pushed in? had to use a small tweezers to pull the card out. tried to clean the slot incase it was stuck to no avail. was able to free the spring loaded ejector part but now the card wont click and stay in. any one had similar issue and had to send to DJI for repair? and idea on what the repair cost would be? Im in CA, USA

Mine works fine, but I rarely eject media. Are you for sure you didn't put in backwards? I have seen plenty of reports of that is why I ask. ;)

nope its inserted properly as i can view the media on the card on the SRC screen
You mean from before as obviously now you can't if it doesn't latch, unless your holding it in place for some obscure reason to check... But regardless I would just fix it myself, but I am so inclined. I would suspect it isn't going to be a big repair, but then again DJI do have surprises now and again on their repairs. Best of luck to you. :)

i was able to get the eject thing stuck again so the card sits in place and reads. but i looked at the one youtube video i could find... omg sooo much needs to come apart to get to the SD slot. kinda reminds me of the Inspire 1 how the full drone needs to be taken apart to replace the center frame lift mech
 
I had an antenna repaired on my Smart Controller, the cost was $66 and took about ten days including shipping to California from PA.
