Worried about motor cables

[Ccarieta]

I finally received my Mavic Today.. What are peoples thoughts on the front arm cables that connect to the motor, it seems that they might become a weak point in design in terms of wear and tear and eventual cable damage...

Well they are wrapped in mesh, so I take it they should hold up rather well. DJI has always stated they tested 5000 infoldings.

Does one of your arms wire mesh rub as it opens?

 

[Ccarieta]

they don't seem to they look to be very tight and there is a slight "rubbing" sound when extending the arms...

I'd be willing to bet that will not be an issue. If they can make a micro ribbon cable that keeps up with the gimbal without loading it down or breaking apart, the relatively tough wires in the webbing should be a piece of cake.

I just got it for this very same reason.

there is a thread over on the DJI Mavic forum about this. Some units had a issue and DJI is aware and will fix it. If you think yours is questionable, take some pictures and contact DJI.
