    Help Finding Gimbal Parts

    Both of these sites are SCAMS. The first one triggered a malware notification from my antivirus system and the second is a fake company - when you call their contact number it's answered by "California Kite Boarding" I've sent a message directly to Tarot in hopes of finding a legit replacement.

    Blinking Orange LED

    You're welcome. Mine didn't come with any specific "lights" documentation either so it was quite annoying but I was happy to find a simple/inexpensive solution ($20 for landing gear, compass, cable combo).

    Help Finding Gimbal Parts

    CJAVIERT - that's EXACTLY what I'm looking for! I ordered a GoodLuckBuy gimbal in the meantime (only $65) - it worked really well right out of the box, but the bushings are quite stiff and I noticed a bit more jello than I did with the Tarot. I'd like my Tarot to be my primary and GLB as a...

    goodluckbuy gimbal questions

    I just received mine - exactly when they estimated it would arrive (took about 2 weeks). They've been really responsive to my initial emails too. Overall, it's not as "fancy" as my Tarot T-2D, but it worked right out of the box. My only gripe (similar to others) is that I can't seem to get it...

    Blinking Orange LED

    Either the remote control is not properly connected or you have a faulty compass. I had the same problem - blinking yellow and never any green. Called DJI and they suspected it was a faulty compass. Check the software - if you have all zero's in the compass reading, you need to replace...

    Help Finding Gimbal Parts

    Thanks, but that's not the part I'm looking for. I need the flat "X" pieces held together by the rubber bushings. I asked Hobby King and they didn't offer those parts.

    Help Finding Gimbal Parts

    I purchased a Tarot T-2D V2 gimbal a few weeks ago and clipped a power line a few days after installation. The gimbal still works fine, but the black plastic mount snapped. Can ANYONE help me find a place where I can purchase just the black mounting brackets (see attached pic)? I would like...

    WTB: GoPro Hero 3 Black (non +)

    That's interesting to hear this from aerial fliers who have owned both. Now my decision is just that much more complicated :roll: There are some great deals on the 3+ (about same price as standard 3) so I'll take a look and make sure it's the latest model. My birthday is on Thursday after...

    WTB: GoPro Hero 3 Black (non +)

    There are a lot of discussions and comparisons out there between the two models and for aerial photography, the non + is noticeably sharper. Apparently GoPro decided to change the focal 'sweet spot' of the 3+ since most users were mounting the cameras on areas that were within 3-4 ft of the...

    WTB: GoPro Hero 3 Black (non +)

    I'm giving my dad my Hero 2 so I need a replacement. I would like the Hero 3 Black (non +). I've been searching on Craigslist, but most sellers won't ship to me (AL) and they still want near new MSRP. I don't want to spend more than $275-300 (including shipping). The only extras I would be...

    Compass cable - please help.

    I bought my Phantom a few weeks ago and I was having the very same issue - slow blinking yellow light, compass parameters in software all showed zero across the board, and GPS wasn't an option. DJI customer support suggesting either sending the Phantom to them or looking for a new compass. I...
