I lost Mavic's gimbal clamp. Tried contacting DJI and no joy.

If anyone could help me, it will be greatly appreciated.

For now, I'm trying to build one on 3D printer... if anyone are able to help me with the file will be great. It's hard do draw it without any reference :(

Thanks in advance!

I was afraid I would lose mine so I attached a red 'Remove before flight' tag to it, some people are attaching the bubble cover to it to help.
 
I'm trying to make a "copy" of it at the moment in SketchUp, and when done I will 3D print it and see if it's of any use.
When so I will report back.

Take a look at our new gimbal lock & lens cover here:

Okay.
Had to go to a party, so did not have much time to draw / copy it, but here is my 1st version. (see attached image)
I'll 3D print one tomorrow, and see if it needs some more "fine" tuning.
If not I will upload the .stl file to thingiverse so that everyone can print it (free).

Did you manage to get that to work ? and uploaded to thingiverse ?
 
hope you get it sorted soon.
 
The Bowden tube kept being pushed out of the "bowden tube clamp".
I've managed to "fix" it for now with Duck tape :-)

Lets see if it holds... Printing now.

Finger crossed here. If you need to test it, send me the file and I print it and post photos . thanks!
 
Please note that the clamp (in attached picture) is printed with a 3D printer held together with DUCKTAPE!
The design needs some more work to make it really fit 100%, but it works fine as is!

3D Print it with PLA (as nylon / ABS will shrinks), and use supports when printing!

Needed .stl can be found here: DJI Mavic Pro Gimbal Clamp (v1) by NoeI

Love it when people say "no joy". Reminds me of my son (who flies F15s)

Sorry BigDan
I'm brazilian and learn to say "no joy" long time ago at IRC chats.
Considering I'm 52 now, I probably had your son age at that time.
Will update the slang. What should I use instead? :)
