    Roll arm bent?

    I have seen this question on here but it didn't help me too much. So after crashing the Phantom, the roll arm was bent (see photo) and it is doing things like tilting the camera sideways up and down. It is just bent in that way and just that part (to my knowledge) that is broken. My questions...

    Gimbal drift issues (cautiously optimistic that I solved the issue)

    I found a forum in the general forum (not sure why it was there, I wasn't the OP) about major gimbal drift / tilt issues on the P4P. I sympathized with the OP about it, because I had the same issue. Here is a video of what I was experiencing last week. Today, I'm happy to report that I think...

    Phantom 3 Pro 4k Camera/gimbal (gimbal not working)

    Had a wet crash upside down. Camera still works. No physical signs of damage to the unit as the drone landed upside down in shallow water. Someone who knows repair might be able to fix it or replace the gimbal motors or just wants to break up for parts. $180 +$6 shipping. Can also be used as...

    Can't fix erratic gimbal

    Had a hard enough landing to break camera roll pin. Replaced roll pin and fixed lose pitch pin. Made sure camera was level after roll pin repair. Had erratic gimbal. Replaced gray cables from gimbal to Pantom as they looked like they may have rubbed on battery. Still had erratic gimbal. Tried...

    Phantom 3Adv Camera Pitch uncontrollable

    Hello guys, I am currently fixing my friend Phantom 3Adv which crashed to a tree. And cannot figure out where the problem is. The camera row axis cover and the ribbon cable were broken after the crash. I just replaced them and all looks fine. But soon I find that the pitch axis is not working...

    Very weird V2+ behavior - 2 motors barely running & yaw turns camera

    First off, I'm a beginner with a drone. But what's happening here doesn't make sense. Crashed my drone learning how not to fly it. Gimbal flex cable tore. Right away I took the gimbal/camera off and checked the drone. It seemed to be working OK and responded to the controller – I flew it a few...

    Gimbal misalignment Q

    Soooo. I crashed last summer and the gimbal got screwed up. Motor overload, misalignment, blah blah. Got it fixed via super glue method/aligning the D rod, was told I may have to glue it myself in the future if it came loose again. It's been working great for probably like five flights since...

    This gimbal problem remains unsolved

    Im not the only one experiencing this issue. Many people have send theirs back for repairs and stillll have this issue. I think DJI should really do something about this or just accept this is a design issue.

    P3P gimbal - slowly tiling left & right

    Hello friends, I'm new to this forum, but I do have about 1.5 years of experience with this model ( probably around 40-50 hours of flight without a single major issue). My first problems with my P3P started last June when I had to change the gimbal (it had vibration issues, but I needed it...

    Camera Gimbal gone crazy - P4 Scare & Questions

    Last week I was at a resort in Cabo Mexico with my P4 and on my first flight (from a balcony) I sent it out over the beautiful marina, it was about 1,000 feet distance from me and only about 80 feet in the air when the video feed on my ipad showed it was tumbling - rolling which looked like it...

    Gimbal Tilt issue

    Hey Guys! I'm new to the forum, thanks for having me. I was messing around with my Phantom 4 pro one night, and ended up in the gimbal settings. Smoothness, tilt...etc. Unfortunately I wasn't paying much attention to what these settings were doing to my gimbal. I'm afraid I have set the gimbal...

    Brand new Phantom 3 Pro Problems?

    Hello! About 2 weeks ago, I bought a Phantom 3 Pro from Best buy of all places. After getting home, I unboxed it to find that it was the Older version, with the older, 2312 motors. (must have been sitting around for a while!) After a bit or research, I found that this could actually be a good...

    Gimbal going crazy after flight

    Had a flight with my P3S and everything was fine. Didn't do anything crazy, but i was hovering over my pool cover that has about a 1/4 inch of water on it. Didn't dunk it at all, but it had a few drops of water on the drone and gimbal when I landed. I then put my second battery in for a...

    Gimbal unbalanced - causing video capture to pan to the right?

    Hey mates, Some time ago I made a rookie mistake and tried to fly my P3S off a narrow balcony. A gust of wind took it sideways and it crashed into the railing with reasonable force. The yaw arm was broken at its thinnest point, as were two propellers, but I fixed both of those issues, or so I...

    P4P Gimbal issue

    I turned on my Phantom 4 Pro last night and noticed I had a "gimbal pitch reached maximum limit" error on the screen. I tried rebooting the remote & drone both, even let the drone cool down - but it kept showing the error. I did some research and did an IMU calibration, twice. It helped center...

    No video feed!

    Dear all, You guys have been really helpful in the past, and I was hoping you guys might know what direction to head in. So I got my phantom 3 into a crash the other week and my gimbal still responds to the controller and reacts normally (moves up and down). However, there is absolutely no...

    Brand New Gimbal making terrible noise P4P

    I just received my new Phantom 4 Pro in the mail a few days ago and noticed that the Gimbal is making a terrible sound. I'll attach a video of it below, I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this? I haven't flown it outside yet, only inside in an open room. I've tried calibrating...
