Mavic Pro 2 Crash + Gimbal Overload - Photos + Video

[tobygg]

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, changed the props. Everything else seemed totally fine. The drone itself performs as perfect as before.
The only problem I'm running into right now is the following: "Gimbal Overload". Flying slowly isn't a problem, but when just going a bit faster, spinning and turning around, the gimbal goes nuts. I already reset the drone and re-calibrated both, the IMU and the gimbal itself, obviously didn't solve the problem.

I just took a video to show the gimbals movement...

What do you think...?

Thanks

That separation is definitely your problem. Need to get that fixed.

Seperation, even though I got it back together...!? Maybe the motor is damaged or so...idk

I'm just wondering how much DJI would charge...or if it makes more sense to just buy a new gimbal (around 600-700 bucks)
