Where are they appearing? Over the front sensors?Has anyone noticed any stress cracks with their MPP?
I really hope that Mavics don't start falling from the sky due to similar reasons.
The Mavic Pro never had a hard landing. See pics. Always hovered and waited for stick input. I think too many have been made and lack of QC. This was my first DJI product. All other features are great. When you pay 1400 dollars- there should not be this kind of issue.As @Bunny Too mentioned, rarely there appear some bubbles and even more rarely stress cracks over the eyes of the forward obstacle sensors. These are the only stress cracks from defective manufacturing in the hundreds of Mavics I've come across. The Phantom 3 series had occasional stress cracks near the motor pods, but I have never seen a crash on a Phantom due to those stress cracks.
The material that the Mavic is made from is quite pliable and not as brittle as some people think. I have been able to bend back front legs into position that appear to be cracked, and tighten the screws back to normal. The most common cracks are due to hard landings and as I mentioned above, the front legs crack but can be repaired, and the tabs above the rear arm saddle joints will crack in a hard landing, but those are designed as fracture points to save the rest of the drone. Arm tabs will crack to break the fall and save the main body of the drone.
All that being said, DJI makes an exceptionally durable product even right down to the Spark.
I bought it New from the DJI online store. No hard landings. Always hovered first then stick input to land. 73 flights. 9 hours and 53 total time. See pics. Noticed it yesterday after setting up for flight.OP, how old is the drone? Did you buy it new or refurbed? How many flights? Any hard landings? Do you notice the crack opening when you fold the LF front leg open or closed?

Wow sounds reassuringYeah... I am one of the people who also has apparently been highly unlucky with their Mavic. I can not think of a single way I could have treated it better and it really let me down. So did DJI. I won't get into specifics, but I will just say that there was zero reason for my issue and DJI was suspiciously cagey in their "response" (or lack thereof) to my concerns.
I'm hoping things will be different now.

I’m with you on how Dji seems to divert fault, my mavic is still perfect but my Phantom is another story! I think Dji was rushing to get these drones to market trying not to have a back order and it is hurting them sort of if the take responsibility for a issue but they seem to work there way out of it more so than not.
