Looking for some help from the MPP owners out there. I have a Polar Pro filter fitted which use to pass the gimbal start up test. After a tree attacked my drone, the start up test now fails with the filter on. The filter comes up hard against the gimbal arm. If I remove the filter, the gimbal test passes. I've also done a gimbal calibration which passed, but hasn't cured the filter problem.
I've attached a photo showing the clearance between the camera and mount. I wondered if this looked about right? I can't see any obvious signs of damage, but something has changed, post crash.
There's also a tab behind the vibration plate that has snapped.
I have DJI refresh, so I'm thinking of sending it back.
Any thoughts on if that clearance looks about right?
Thanks!

that tab is the gimbal anti drop hook and it helps keep the gimbal plate in its correct position,as you have care refresh then send it back ,or you could find out how much a replacement hanger plate would cost as apposed to the refresh charge
