Gimbal cable connector repair

[soulsnipes40]

Hello,

Looks like my gamble cable connector coming in from the Mavic itself was damaged. Is there someone that can solder or is there a specific cable that can be ordered from that?

If you're talking about the black ribbon cable that runs through the gimbal, that's a pretty common issue. You can find replacement cables online for ~$8 or so (I bought one off of eBay and haven't had issues with it). The repair itself is a bit fiddly, but if you have experience repairing small electronics and your drone isn't under warranty, it might be worth giving it a try! No soldering involved, but lots of tiny screws. There are videos on YouTube that outline the process for swapping it out.
