@Thunderdrones should be able to sort you out. Sorry to hear of your loss, I am sure you will be hovering again shortly.

Thank you @Bunny Too for mentioning me.

OP, you will need to tear down the gimbal to see what's broken inside. If you are getting video but no gimbal movement, it could be your ribbon cable, motor assembly, or gimbal PCB that got damaged, or possibly a combination of parts.
