Problem? There are a few:
Was unit in a crash? Again a few:
1. A couple of minor prop-chippers on grass
2. A legit crash that split a prop and dislodged the gimble - this is when issue 1 started
3. I rigged the gimbal with a piece of cardboard then backed into a tree - this was the last time the remote worked
What have you tried so far?
At the time of issue #1, i figured injust needed new rubber bands, so i took it to DJI in NYC and they wanted $300 to replace the gimbal - it was feeding video back 100% fine and flyable (with vib warnings) after i rigged a holder w cardboard, so i decided id look into how to just replave the rubber bands.
Now that the remote isnt connecting i assume ill have to get proper service for at least this problem-unless both problems can be self-fixed or even (hopefully) profesdionally serviced cheaper than DJI
What device are you using ( iphone , ipad, Samsung , etc)?
IPhone 8
What firmware are you running ( aircraft, remote controller)?
Not sure, latest.
What Go app version are you using?
4.2.22
Any modification? (if so what)
Just ****** cardboard gimbal rug which is in trash now
Did you change anything or install any apps?
You can install apps?
Do you have a video or pictures of the problem? (if so post link)
I can shoot pics of the effed rubber bands if you ask
Anyone here know a reputable repair by mail or location near nyc/northern nj?
If just the gimbal rubber bands were going to be $300, how is both of these repairs going to cost less than replacing the mavic pro second hand?
- The gimbal rubber bands are stretched or broken or pulled out (but the image seems fine)
- The mavic wont connect to remote in RF setting though it will connect over wifi
