Take a picture of what you're talking about so that I can visually see it. I'll probably draw mine up in Solidworks and start working on some prototypes within the next couple months. Based on your picture I'll be able to see what you're talking about and we can go from there whether it's worth sending. I'm dead serious though, I have access to 50+ industrial (look up Fortus 400, 450 or 900) machines and the company just needs to keep the machines running. This is the fun stuff and why I love working for them.

calde315 - what's your companies name and website? Sounds like a great place to work!

Ha. I'm very good when it comes to repairing things like this. I us e to build my own RC Heli's and Aircraft before I bought my first DJI product.

If i can can just the short arm with the piece already attached I'd prefer that over the whole arm / leg structure. So if someone has just the arm in the picture I posted that would be great, only a few screws to undo to remove it.

Jason,
I looked thru my parts and pieces and believe I have what you need (see pics). Please check your arm for a stamp on the plastic part that is broken and make sure there's a R of a L on it. I believe DJI labeled them Right and Left when viewing the AC from the front. Also check the rod ends and let me know if they both have double tabs or if one side has a single tab (Right vs Left).

I won't have the drone in front of me till Firday, But here is a picture where you can see which side is damaged (the one with the missing bottom stabilizer)

OK, looks like that's the Right side when viewed from the front and I have the arm and rod for that side. I'll take $75 shipped for both, since you've helped me out in the past. I think that's more than fair, if you look at what they go for on Ebay (see attached).
I just need to confirm the rod for that side has two mounting tabs on each end. Can anybody help with confirming that?

Thats an acceptable price.

I will PM you my e-mail address so you can send me a Paypal Invoice.

I appreciate the discount

The end you need is glued on but there is a glue remover that will loosen it up and check for a used camera then you can hook it up to the gimbal that you have. I am sure there are a bunch of good cameras with broken gimbals. So if you can get a arm that just the carbon fiber was broke and the plastic peice is still good were it hooks up to the gear inside the craft. Maybe someone with a 3 d printer can make it

hoodlum1 - Could you please provide more info on the "glue remover" you mention and how it worked for you? I'd love to get a-hold of something that would unbond these parts!

I would try acetone and a heat gun or blow dryer acetone will not hurt the carbon fiber it will help break down the glue or epoxy that's holding the parts together
