Has anyone sent their X5R in to DJI for repair? I imagine I am not the first (or last) to snap this part. Curious how much they will charge.

That was (is) the Achilles Heel of the X5/X5R. I had one break after a very mild collision with a tree branch.
I sure hope they learned from this and designed the X5S better.
 
did you send yours in and if so how much did it cost? I Broke mine today and was just curious as to what it will cost me.
 
I ended up sending mine in and the total was $323. $195 of that was labor. They must have sent via the “slow boat from China” back from California, but I did get it back good as new with no issues.

Heliarink did you send in the quad, gimbal, and controllers in or just the gimbal and lense?

I had an unfortunate accident.
The X5 RAW camera is broken.
I'm thinking of sending dji service, what are your recommendations?

how much will it cost me?
