DJI Mavic Connection Issue Gimbal Error Fixed

[@wonderbox01]

Wow. This literally was an instant fix. Thank you so much! I watched several other videos that were much more involved and complex and then I saw this one, grabbed a cable from my old iPad and it worked immediately.

Glad it helped

I know I'm late to the party here, but I've already been using the bottom port for years. I never liked the side cable so I bought an iPad as I wanted a larger screen but stupid me, the old used iPad I got wouldn't allow the free the DJI Go app so I then bought the Lichi app and a 180 degree lightening cable to go with it. This phenomenon has only been occurring for a couple flights but I freak out thinking I'm about to lose the Aircraft. Thankfully I wasn't downrange too far and hit the RTH until I heard it overhead or connectivity restored itself. I think I'll go buy a normal OEM lightening cable and test the theory that the cable itself is the issue. Thanks for the suggestion after 6 years. I pray it's not an internal thing. You may be a lifesaver Big D!

Thank you for your help, I did all you where showing here in this video but I still have GIMBAL DISCONNECTED under GIMBAL STATUS. I heard on this video you were saying about CALIBRATE THE COMPASS. Do you think that CALIBRATING THE COMPASS is connected with GIMBAL DISCONNECTED ?! I also need to CALIBRATE THE COMPASS. Please help me! Thanks!

[@chrismclarnon805]

Thank you!!!!!!

[@henrymaxpaterson]

I notied that you're screen is still black? Are you getting a strong video output?

[@BigDThatsMe]

Max Paterson the screen is not black. I have one of those privacy screens so it’s hard to see if you are not looking directly at it, so the camera had a hard time showing the screen.

[@henrymaxpaterson]

Sorry not quite sure what you mean?

[@BigDThatsMe]

Max Paterson the camera just didn’t pick up the screen very well

[@henrymaxpaterson]

OK sweet as thanks

[@KyleRyanMiranda]

Experiencing this in my iPhone X,will try tonight hope it works as I do flight tom

[@BigDThatsMe]

ryan miranda hope it works, let us know.

[@KyleRyanMiranda]

hi yes it did work,it happened in my second flight its saying disconnected ,so i change the cable,and boom its working

[@mlee6136]

did you know the original apple lightening cable has a small chip inside, if you use a counterfeit lightning cable it often doesn't work. Could this be why the DJI cable on the left hand side doesn't work... Hence why the iphone cable is more stable....?

[@BigDThatsMe]

Very possible.

[@slavito77]

Thanks

[@suleymandeniz9354]

this is temporary.change gimbal axle.i fixed my problem like this

[@theurbanartist775]

I think mine is worse than that. It crashed for no reason and now I’m getting main controller data error, accelerometer error🥴 I install a new camera unit and now all this. I sent it to the shop today and they guy told my girl it has 18 codes, I’m like oh really....some people will really try to take advantage

[@BigDThatsMe]

Sorry you had a hard time.

[@novaandrean5152]

Isn't work for me 😪 It say no image transmission and disconnect gimbal ,, somebody help me please

[@BigDThatsMe]

Nova Kesuma make sure you have removed the plastic safety stop and cover from the camera.

[@theurbanartist775]

Big D Productions could you please clarify that more. I just install a new camera and now it says gimbal is disconnected.

[@j3fron]

Usb cable provided by dji is really sucks and very low quality Change that cable with other brands And if still use micro usb, USB 2.0 is a must And connect it with bottom usb port

[@cumbiainstrumental]

I have the real answer I fixed mine

[@shanesmith6479]

What’s the real answer?
