Accidental damage protection (ADP)
Protect your Wingtra drone in case of the odd incidental damage to your drone.
Accidental damage refers to a physical breakage or failure that is not due to a manufacturing defect. Damage can be due to, for example, improper use, poor flight planning, mishandling during transport or changing environmental conditions.
- Extends the warranty coverage to accidental damage
- In case of damage, your drone will be replaced or repaired(1)
