The sensors work, but the visual part does not. I keep losing the term DJI uses.

I did carefully check the connectors, but I may have missed something (old eyes). This would be the most obvious reason, lacking a defective cable, since most of the strain was applied here till the wires ripped apart. I can't remember if the connector was still attached or not. The Gimbal and...

Sorry, I generalized. Yes, I did replace both of them. The tree wasn't selective about which one it ripped apart.

OK a little progress. both compasses work and are calibrated. Forward vision sensor is a problem obviously, since I have no video. It also is not writing anything to a file on the SD card, if that is a clue. I snapped a couple picures, but no file written. Seems like it should have created a...

Thanks, that is probably it. I did replace parts of the arms in the back. that's it.......easy to miss

I hear ya. Wife is complaining that it has been sitting on the kitchen table for months since I replaced the cable. At first, I just rcvd the AC with battery. So I could only control it with WiFi. After I bought props and a charger, the guy brought me 2 batteries, the controller, props and a...

thx - I may just part it out. The camera is $60. and the forward sensor control board is $60. So far I spent about $40. on it. This is an academic project. I inherited this from the guy who crashed it. I have an M2Z myself.

Sorry folks for the confusion. The video issue was to define that it worked b4 the crash and that it closed the last file b4 it fell to the ground. IE, it was still in the tree at the end of that file indicating that it was unpowered when it fell. I can also play that file. The issue of closing...

It records in 9-10min segments. The first 3 are about 4GB, the last one is 1.1GB If I knew where to look for signals I might be able to figure something out. But as small as things are, that may not be realistic.

I'm not concerned about the video. Since the last one was short, I assume it was closed. Otherwise, it would have been the same length as the others. It is just video of the tree blowing in the wind. I updated the f/w but that didn't help. Why is one compass disconnected? Is that a clue? When I...

I have compass #1 disconnected and when I calibrate the compass it says it completed but I still have a warning on the app and the controller is telling me there is a system error to check the app. Gimble calibration completes OK. It went into video mode once but won't switch now. I reset the...

I got mine from AliExpress. Came with bushings. Mine were ripped out.

You might get more answers if you put it into the Mavic 2 section

I have a Mavic Pro that got too friendly with a tree. It recorded 22 min of video sitting in the tree, then got blown to the ground. In the process the gimble wires were ripped apart. I have replaced the wires and broken gimble mount, and most things appear to be working, but I have no video. I...

thanks
