    Gimbal Screaming

    It has over time stopped during calibration sooner and sooner to the point where it now stops at this point and will not continue unless I manually move the gimbal myself. Short answer is no it will not complete initialization. I just removed the gimbal and am finding what appears to be dried...

    Gimbal Screaming

    Took a better video, @Thunderdrones what do you think?

    Gimbal Screaming

    No error messages, unless I try to auto calibrate. Then it fails at 41% when camera is doing the side to side rotation. If a motor is bad, can it be replaced and how much do they generally cost? I've had this thing apart so I think I'll attempt a fix if it's possible.

    Gimbal Screaming

    Here a crummy video... is there a certain angle I can tape from to eliminate the sonar sound?

    Also doesn't seem to be focusing as well as before, otherwise functioning normally

    Gimbal Screaming

    Crashed in to muddy water, I thought all was well. Now my gimbal make a LOUD screeching noise on start up and will not complete calibration. It moves freely and doesn't seem to have debris in it. What could be causing the screech?? It sounds BAD!

    MAVIC SUBMARINE! Amazing!

    Got a little too close during this shot and almost paid for it! Luckily I had my Mavic in water launch mode and it shot out of the water like it was made for it! This was very muddy water and I'm happy to say after a couple weeks both the battery and drone survived the plunge and are working...

    Can Gimbal Wires Be Repaired?

    I think I speak for everyone when I say... huh? Periods and caps to start sentences would be helpful.

    Follow Me Mode Weak Satellite

    I checked in with support, "Development is aware of the issue and are trying to resolve it by now"

    Follow Me Mode Weak Satellite

    Anyone ever figure this out? I had the same issue today. Attempted several times to land a re-calibrate. Everything else seemed to work great except "follow me" Which complained of a weak GPS signal and refused to track. -- ALSO on an IPhone 7 plus (Sprint)

    Can Gimbal Wires Be Repaired?

    Big thanks to ThunderDrones for supplying the goods to get me back in the air! I got lucky probably since a water landing was involved, but the camera fix is completed and all systems are operational!! Woohooo

    Can Gimbal Wires Be Repaired?

    Do you still do the repairs? I saw you were swapping cameras out in another post. I live in northwest Indiana, how much would you charge for a repair and how long would something like that take? Thank you, Alex

    Can Gimbal Wires Be Repaired?

    That's my plan, I like to learn and I figure it will be good to know this thing inside and out. Or someone on here can tell me I'm insane and need tiny hands to work on this thing at which point I'll throw in the towel and send it to DJI. It's my first time attempting this big of a job on the...

    Can Gimbal Wires Be Repaired?

    Just had a crash in to water, hit a tree on the way in a ripped the gimble half off. The front is still attached by bands, but the back looks to have a cracked tab sticking up and the rubber mounts are out of the slots the seat in. I also have the ribbon cable completely severed and the silver...
