    Hi What would you recommend to do with Air that has been crashed and has gimbal motor overload error and visibly incline gimbal (horizontal)? Also gimbal auto calibration won't (naturally) finish. Could it be fixed possibly with (new) ribbon cable and perhaps by fixing this possible issue ? Or...

    DJI Go 4 App Crashing on SC: SOLVED

    It "finally" happened. I managed to crash my drone into the only tree the desert had to offer, sideways, full speed. All props went flying in different directions. The heavy Hasselblad camera bent the frame that it holds on impact (wth?). Back at home I managed to repair the damaged frame...

    I crashed my mavic 2 pro... camera faces down.

    Everything else on the mavic works fine. The camera stays facing down when off though. I can move it in any direction manually but will center itself facing down. When I turn it on it positions itself normally and works normal. Only when I fly and move it around the camera drifts and faces down...

Happily my son saw...

    So, I go to do a test. I wanted to see about how fast I could rise vertically and move horizontally with different sets of props.

    I'm on the island of Molokai, Hawaii filming a horse galloping - prior to starting I did see the wires (no power to them) in the distance and set the drone to fly above the wires. I am following the horse and I don't see any wires on the smart controller screen and then suddenly wham - my...
