Same here... I forgot it several times on my first GPS drone, a P3 Standard, until I attached a pitot flag, then moved the flag to the P3 Pro shortly after I got it. Mavic gimbal locks are much smaller with no good place to attach a flag, so I just paint 'em.It reall only took me a few times and made it a habit of that’s the first think I do is remove it but when I got my first P3 I did put a

Bad analogy (parking brake). There is no mechanical wear when the gimbal is unable to move.It puts some unnecessary wear and tear on your gimbal. It certainty can potentially damage the gimbal. Whether it will or not depends on how quickly you notice it. The gimbal obstructs the movement of the gimbal. It's like driving with your parking brake still on. Never a good thing. It can burn up your brakes. Damage varies.
