Bottom line though, it’s cost you £79 quid all in for a replacement Mavic.

Have I read that right @Ktm250 mate?

Good evening, at last a new Mavic has arrived from Care refresh, I was quite surprised that they sent the new bird and original controller back in the same box and not very well packed at that either, they have put no paperwork in regarding the exchange, no mention of wether the new Mavic needs pairing with the original controller…
So now I have a question how do I go about updating my care refresh details because as I understand it its based on the bird SN number so will I have to change this over to the replacement or will DJI do this automatically ???
I think all the latest updates will need loading ???
And also I want to put a skin on the new Mavic because it proved invaluable for me recovering the old bird from out of that freezing water, so could I have so recommendations for good quality skin suppliers.

Hopefully it will be easier than the same conundrum on the screen/extended warranty for my phone. Initially they argued that “it wasn’t the same phone”. I then had to walk them through the logic that the insurance was for screen replacement. If THEY chose to replace phone (IMEI No) rather than just screen … that’s THEIR problem.
We’re at 3 months and counting on this one!
DJI can’t be that bad!!! … can they? :wink:

Hi guys I have been checking the new bird and yes it needed pairing so I have done that, but I have 2 x issues when the new Mavic gets booted up and as per normal the gimbal does its little dance BUT this on does it with a almighty clatter, not a nice sound at all… So what to do ?
The 2nd issue is that due to the time period the batteries have been stood Un used they have discharged them selves, my first thoughts are great they will be fine but O no one of them will not charge now it just sits on the charger with one green light flashing about every 30 seconds or so, Geeeezz I am get sick of this now, What do you think I should do ? are they covered under the care refresh or am I going to have to buy a replacement…:persevere::persevere::persevere::persevere::persevere:

What do you man by a skin for the Mavic? Does it protect it from when it enters the water ir keep it afloat? Is this an essential that i should get?

17

Thanks Ping I will get on it tomorrow…
Chrissyb the skin is purley decorative really, mine was a bright red so when flying it helped seeing it at distance and when it crashed into the river the water was about 3 ft deep and coloured brown because of the moorland peat, but as I waded through the water looking for it I just saw this red shape in the murk and low and behold it was my Mavic, if it was left the standard colour I dont think I would have found it…

Thanks. Just ordering from Dronewrapz now. Im going for tne fluoro option for visibility on practical grounds, as much as i would like to go for tbe cool effect of sometning else.
I still need to get tbis insurance sorted though, as im in Lanzarote over Christmas. Will opt for DJI Care unless anyone else comes up with better suggestion.
