Mavic 2 Zoom crash gimbal overload

Jeromeroscoe · Nov 18, 2018

Mavic 2 Zoom took a decent fall from the sky, camera on the gimbal faces backwards and rotates up. Does anyone know a fix for this or do I absolutely have to send it to DJI, sadly I dont have the refresh insurance.

I can take a look at it for you. I have replacement gimbal for the M2Z but yours might just need to be repaired.

Well, we can throw in a reference to

@Thunderdrones again. As stated above he may be able to help you out. Maybe he has a suggestion for righting the camera/gimbal in the field.

I ended up sending mine to DJI's repair center in California the total cost for the repair was $390 after it was repaired I was given the option once again to purchase the dji refresh insurance again, this time I bought it.

Ouch. My price is around half that. Sorry, but good you got it flying again.
