Default Drones- anyone own a Mavic? I may have some free parts for you

I have been doing some 3d printing and have got a few spares, things that work very well on the Mavic Pro. I have a camera gimbal lock, gimbal protector and joystick protector that are excess to my needs. I printed a couple of each, in case one failed but they all worked. It is always easier to print 3 than start 3 times, as long as I am monitoring it.

If you can use them, let me know. Pics later if anyone cares.

Thumbs down

That is so crazy, I can't believe their feet do not get sliced up. They must be tough as nails, the props are almost razor sharp and spinning very very fast. Cruelty to animals.

Sorry they are not

What do you think of the Air? Have you flown it much? I was going to get one just for the sub 250g, but have heard they are so delicate it is crazy. Leg flex under load causing the props to hit the body, etc. Apparently there are already updates for stiffening the legs, but we should not have to do that to a brand new drone.
