Dear Sir
I bought a Xiaomi mi Drone 1080 and I AM not very happy. During flight the camera got loose from the Drone and hit the floor. I need to buy a new one and i cannot do it anywhere. I already send emails to Xiaomi whithout any answer. Can anyone help to get a new camera for my Drône?
Its not very wise not having access to spare partes in this type of equipment
You can buy Xiaomi spare parts from many online sites…Like banggood, heartbeat…etc
Do not make the same mistake as I did in buying this drone. There are alot of articles out saying that it is comparable to the DJI. I call B.S. Also if you live anywhere near an airport,you cannot even get the motors to fire upon setup. What a mistake. Please do not make this mistake. You will regret it. I tried reselling it to no avail. Thinking about having someone toss it in the air and blasting it down like skeet with my 12 gauge (It will have to be thrown due to NFZ bullshit,it does not fly). Watch for vdeo to follow on YouTube..
In 2020 our present year, those saying that Dji Phantoms are better than Xiaomi drone, are wrong, i am a dji user and to my experience its really worst the P3 camera and gimbal are worst and a garbage that always have an issue on horizontal video image movements even of its updated and new, the app in 2020 even lags and too much warning on NFZ’s even if you fly out of NFZ’s area.. Xiaomi drones are more safe even though they are less in range. The quality of their video cameras are fantastic and superb incomparable to any Dji drones except for Inspire series..
