Moisture in gimbal

Edford80 · Oct 19, 2018

I have lately starting to have moisture inside the camera gimbal.
It starts as soon as the mavic is in the air. When you put it back to idle, it goes away.

I have put it inside a bowl with rice for 4 days, but after taking it out, the moisture is back again.

I think some humidity has come inside th camera somehow.

Does anybody know if you can order a new gimbal from dji and how difficult it may be to install it??

Thanks in advance

Do you know for a fact that it is moisture? Or are you just getting a "foggy" looking view while flying? I had that problem suddenly, but knew that i never got the drone wet. I got an nd8 filter, and the problem went away.

It is actually fog, (condensation) in the middle of the lens that all the time goes away within seconds of being idle

I would order a bunch of that silica gel dessicate, and put the drone in a container with it for a few days. Make sure you put the dessicate into some womens nylons or something, because those little beads will get into the drone. I have heard that the rice thing doesn't really work well.
