Sounds like it's seen some rough times! I'm not sure so can't say definitively; I didn't unclip the PTZ cable when making repairs. Look for any damage on the bottom of the drone where the teeth could have penetrated the body and into the motherboard just to make sure. I hear you on the...

There's a post office across from my place but it takes days so I totally get it! If the gimbal isn't moving at all then the PTZ cable could be the culprit. However, I am curious why you wouldn't get the camera feed if the transmission cable is fixed properly. I really hope it's just the cable...

Dayum! $50?! That's quite a deal! Absolutely! I took the gimbal apart myself but halfway through, I checked out the following video justttt in case and ensure I didn't screw up anything delicate: One thing that's not in the video (at 4:46) that I found on my drone is the camera had a...

For anyone experiencing the same problem, the issue was the video transmission cable. I got a new one and replaced and it's all good now! Happy I'm flying again!!!

You’re right. The motherboard needs to be recoded through a proprietary DJI software (through DJI or an authorized retailer). However, I only replaced the transmission cable and didn’t do anything else. I also went back to make sure the connectors were set in properly and none of the pins were...

Hi! My gimbal was stuck and none of the fixes worked (was flying perfectly though). I noticed one of the strands on the transmission cable was broken so I replaced it myself. Did a clean job and there were no issues. When I turned the drone on, there were a plethora of errors starting from...

I'm in Oakland and would love to meet up and fly with fellow drone enthusiasts! I would really appreciate it if you would let me know when you're meeting up next :)

Nicely Done!
