    Will these controllers work with P2V+?

    Confirmed - no LED lights on these 30A Simonk ESCs. And a closer look shows that the other link is no good either.

    Gluing the shaft back again in the gimbal?

    I've seen several references about fixing a detached camera by gluing the shaft back in place. I've spent a while searing the forums but can't find it. Anyone be kind enough to post a link to this please? Or a Youtube vid? Thanks!
