Air 2 Camera Gimbal

[Jigsaw43Bravo]

Hello all.
Just a general sanity-check question...

I've had my Air 2 for about 18 months now, with dozens of flights and hundreds of awesome images captured. This little bugger's been around the block.

Today I was practicing "low level sport mode" when I inadvertently found the "G" in "AGL", using what's known as the "Braille" method. Other than picking out a few blades of grass, there was no apparent damage, but while checking the camera gimbal (which I was most worried about), I came across what I think is a temporary protective adhesive sticker on the back side of the gimbal bracket (the surface that faces the gimbal transducer). I never noticed this before and it's been a while since I unpacked mine. I don't recall what the removable shipping components looked like.

Pretty sure it's for removal but just wanted to be sure! Thanks!

ps: crash footage available if anyone is interested

Are you sure it doesn't say "Do not remove this tag under penalty of law" in very small letters? Sorry, I don't have a real answer. Looks like it should be ok to remove to me.

Definitely for removal, especially since it is peeling, and could obstruct the free movement of the gimbal.

That's the secret hidden shipping sticker that are on most DJI gimbals and is easily overlooked.

I've seen YouTube chatter about it and mentions here in the Forums.

Just checked mine-thanks for the thread! Seems OK but I don’t recall taking a sticker off where yours is at box opening.

Now that I think about it the small green tab is the same color as all of the adhesive sensor covers I remember peeling off. Definitely easy to miss!

Thanks for all the feedback!

They put those stickers all over drones. They should all be removed. The gimball one could actually interfere with your gimball action. And be careful with the ground. BTW, you obstacle avoidance should have prevented the crash. In your settings set to obstacle avoidance. or go around.
