I found this nice gimbal lock/lens cover from polarpro: DJI Mavic Gimbal Lock / Lens Cover

I would think you are correct but I did choose to go the other way and keep my original Mavic, then I will always know its history, I recently had to replace the gimbal plate for about $20 US instead of paying about $300 for the repair, if there is anything I cannot fix I will take it to my local drone shop for repair and I still get to keep my original Mavic, but that is just my opinion, my crash was my own fault, pressed RTH and did not realize there were some tree branches above my Mavic.

Pleased that you are happy with your choice.

BTW your name (kiteboarder) suggests you are into kite boarding, you would sure get some good footage from that sport.

I don't think that DJI would reveal if the unit is refurbished or new, but then I could be wrong.

Hey there I'm new to this Same situation RTH and a tree. I have picture from camera but seems there is no power at all to gimbal. Totally unresponsive. I also get warning aircraft motor overloaded check if gimbal clamp is removed which ofcourse it is. Any suggestions ?

I might have the part. Email me if interested. Its just the bracket, you have to install it yourself. It has been pre-bent and pre-drilled and is alot stronger than the original..
