Broken Drone to Gimbal Attatchment

[gonnaflynow]

Merry Christmas!
After flying my new Phantom 3 Professional, I accidently crashed it. The only thing that broke as a result is the attachment from camera to the gimbal. I believe the camera/rest of the gimbal is fine, but can't figure out how to attach it without super gluing it. I did not realize how fragile this part of the drone is, and will definitely order a gimbal case when it is fixed. Any help in how one would fix it would be great!!!

You're going to need a new yaw arm and gimbal cable. Super glue isn't going to fix this mishap.

Ok, that is good to know! If the cable is still intact, do I need to order a new cable as well as the yaw arm, or both?

 

[msinger]

If the cable does not appear to be damaged, then it might be fine. I thought it was ripped when I first saw your photo above.

You can get a yaw arm from ATK Drones or Amazon. DJI does not sell them.

Yeah these gimbals are cheaper than ever! I'm pretty sure DJ I wants em to break

There's a repair/replacement gimbal kit that consist of plastic that is actually good to use. I think $75?

Do they sell gimbal "cases" to help protect it from damage?
