DJI Phantom 4 series Yaw centering

[@MrDronebot]

Going to the shop to get my compass right now! Thanks for sharing the knowledge!

[@Droneted]

Good luck. Sometimes you have to try a couple but it is better than randomly try different casings.

[@DetectorismoItai]

very good tip my friend Ted Keyser , have you thought about relocating , taking off the magnet and repositioning it so that it is correct ? because in cases where both the esc board and the yaw motor are changed, and they still won't invent a software for this calibration, hug from the friend from Itai sp brazil!!!

[@Droneted]

That might just be my next project. I have to figure out how to release the magnet

[@Droneted]

I have hundreds of cases for the yaw. There are only about 5 different locations. Using a compass is the easiest way

[@timothystucker9332]

Do you have a possible solution for a dji phantom 4 pro that the camera won't tilt up or down. I replaced the yaw arm and roll arm and yaw motor because I bought it after someone had crashed it

[@Droneted]

First I have to ask if the gimbal goes through the start up procedure? The pitch would move up and down during start up. if it does the problem is in the remote controller settings.

Drumroll....

[@dbbeilin]

I have a phantom 4 pro plus. My camera continually moves left to right and right to left upon start-up. I tried calibrating the imu, the compass and the gimbal. can you help?

[@Droneted]

You have a damaged yaw motor. I think the Hall sensors are damaged. A tiny scratch will cause this. What my other video about replacing the yaw motor

Hello, I have a question please: Do you happen to know if it is complicated to replace the PITCH MOTOR of the camera in the Phantom 4 Pro? Thanks in advance

[@Droneted]

No it is a direct swap.

[@YL-mc9oz]

@@Droneted Thank you

[@YL-mc9oz]

@@Droneted And do you know if you need to disassemble both sides or only the side of the PITCH MOTOR ?

[@Droneted]

@@YL-mc9oz You need to take the back cover off the camera head and release the latch that holds the pitch motor cable. Then there are 4 screws that hold the motor assembly. 2 on the camera head and 2 on the roll arm

[@YL-mc9oz]

@@Droneted Thank you very much !!!

[@Ramadhaniayoubissa]

How can I get that compass and I need it for the job of that problem

[@Droneted]

It is a Boy Scout compass. Very cheap

[@Ramadhaniayoubissa]

@@Droneted I need to buy and how to get it from alixpress or ebay

[@Droneted]

Either. eBay might be easier. Where are u located?

[@Ramadhaniayoubissa]

@@Droneted It is found in Africa, Kenya

[@Ramadhaniayoubissa]

I'm sorry if I get the ebay link so you can buy it

[@djamelbmw2228]

If we lose the original cover, how can we fix it again? Is there another way to fix it with the new cover that comes with motor

[@Droneted]

not really. If you loose the original You have to get your hands on a few casings. If you use the one that came with the where it points. then take the casing off and see where the magnets are located. If it points to the right, you need one with the magnets to the left of where the casing is marked. If it points to the left you need one to the right of it. If you can send me a photo of nwhere you mark it and a photo of where the yaw points I can help you figure it out

[@fabiofasano5622]

Hello Ted: I have changed the Yaw motor of my PH4 according to your instructions, using the original casing to avoid deviations in the chamber. Despite this, the camera faces to the left, but I don't have other casings to try. Furthermore, the yaw motor does not seem to have enough strength since if I move it manually it takes a while to focus on its wrong direction, not firmly as the other motors do, but weakly as if it were drunk. Do you have any suggestion? Thank you so much

[@Droneted]

I have seen a lot of defective yaw motors lately.. Most of the defects are loose windings. If you take the casing off and grab the windings with your fingers they should not move if you try to turn them left or right. I buy 20 at a time and check each one . if they are loose at all I glue them. I recommend you return the yaw motor as it is probably no good. Where are you located? I would be glad to help you.

[@fabiofasano5622]

Hello Ted. Unfortunately I am somewhat far away, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where there are not many options to get spare parts at the moment. I bought the engine on eBay. Anyway, I'll try to take it apart again to check it, while I try to get an original motor. We´ll keep in touch. Thank you very much for your answer@@Droneted

[@Droneted]

@@fabiofasano5622 What did you find?

[@popgirls1837]

I have replaced the yaw motor, but same error

[@Droneted]
