It's most likely repairable. Sounds like you may need a new ribbon cable. Perhaps not something you want to try yourself, but there are people on here experienced in this sort of thing. Post some pictures of the damage if you can.

I'm no expert but assuming the camera and gimbal are OK, it's probably just going to be a ribbon cable.

The single black wire and the gray wire are antenna. The multi wire cable powers the gimbal. With the low cost of a p3 standard drone, it might not be worth fixing. You can find them on eBay for less than $150. Before you do that make sure the camera is ok.. if you ship me the camera I would test it for you. It will only cost you shipping.

I’d be a bit reticent to send a camera to you for testing if you look anything like your avatar.

Is Marty still around?
