FixaCrash - Mavic Pro Gimbal Disassembly

[@Ochavez33]

Thank you very much, your tutorial helped me a lot, you have a beautiful voice and you are very beautiful, now I am your fan, God bless you now and always amen! :) 🤝🏻

[@bruceconrad7070]

Anita actually did the repair on my Phantom 4 pro, not crash related, software related. She knocked it out of the park. Very serious service related person and quite competent as well.

[@FixaCrash]

Hi Bruce, wow, I appreciate your feedback here :) happy to hear that all is going well with you. Happy flying!

[@robinpowlus9936]

One of the best repair videos I have ever seen. Ever! Great camera, voice, and directions. You saved me a lot of money by allowing me to DIY a broken gimbal arm. Thanks so much.

[@Al-Gore-ithm]

Is it as easy as she made it look? I have to replace the ribbon!

[@robinpowlus9936]

@@Al-Gore-ithm pretty much. It’s a very accurate video for the Mavic 1

[@beeldenman]

Hi Anita, this is the best gimbal repair video I have found and I have tried/seen a few. Perfect explanation, clear voice and everything is visible in the frame.

[@busterchipmunk8957]

I hardly ever comment on stuff but I'm going to comment here. *Outstanding* video ... pretty much perfection really. What an impressive technician she is. Thank you.

[@FixaCrash]

Buster Chipmunk thank you Buster! Much appreciated 😄

[@leoneljosiah2833]

@Kieran Braylon Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@leoneljosiah2833]

@Kieran Braylon it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thank you so much you saved my ass!

[@chrisdunmill8438]

Thank you so much for your 2 great videos. Using these I was able to repair my broken gimbal ribbon cable at cost of about $24. I had a quote from a repair place and they were going to charge me $1000...$600 of which was to replace the whole gimbal & camera....what a waste that would have been! You saved me a lot of money! The dismantling wasn't too hard, but putting in the new cable and reassembling was a bit stressful. Thanks

[@FixaCrash]

Chris Dunmill Hi, I'm so glad this video helped get you back in the air at a great price. That quote is absolutely ridiculous 😨 very good job Chris! Happy flying!

[@abovebeyondaerialphotograp6905]

Hey girl Ive just replaced my Mavic Pro Gimbal, thanks to your detailed and short to the point video you've made! THANK YOU youre awesome!

[@neilreid9005]

Probably the best video I've seen on replacing the ribbon and video cables. Outstanding job- very calm, great camera work, excellent lighting and audio. Because of your video, I feel I'm ready to install the two new cables; though I'll likely use your video while I'm reassembling. Your work saved me most of $250. Thank you very much!

[@wcsilva]

Without your video instructions, I would never be able to fix my mavic camera! Thank you!

[@FixaCrash]

William Silva Glad it helped! Happy flying!

[@jennifergillaspia1099]

Thank you so much. You were so thorough and made it look so easy. Best video I’ve seen BY FAR🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@charlesgreco6964]

I'm taking my Mavic to repair shop. I"d never in a hundred years get mine back together . Your a genius.

[@rakamaru3400]

Awesome tutorial, very detailed and clear. Went through a dozen others, but yours is the best. Thank you, my drone is flying and filming again!

[@victorkanyendo9352]

You are amazing, I love you. Crushed my drone and fixed it using your perfect and clear instructions. I feel like an expert because of you. Thank you thank you thank you.

[@ahmedsambo5757]

Soooooo helpful I crashed my mavic about 2 weeks after i just bought it took it in to DJI and spent 350 on the camera so you can imagine how i felt the second time i crash it and destoryed my camera, but this time i listen to your advice n wahla im back up and flying THANKS A MILLION (matter fact thanks a 350) and i only spent 25 dollars on the parts i needed (gimbal ribbon and vibration plate off amazon)

[@Atlas-Black]

Thanks a lot for making this video. It made replacing my broken ribbon cable relatively painless! It only took me about an hour from start to finish and the gimbal works perfectly!

[@FixaCrash]

Trey Willson That's great! Happy flying! 🔧✈️

[@philklepka6933]

Seriously THE BEST video for disassembly of the gimbal. Thank you so much. Subbed.

[@FixaCrash]

Thank you! Happy flying!

[@sandromartelli706]

Thanks a lot for the clear video. Replaced my gimbal and now it's working again!!!!! Great video!

[@quintonmarchand5456]

This is great. My mavic malfunctioned during a practice flight today - upon take off the obstacle avoidance warning came on and the drone took off full speed before i even touched the sticks. Went straight toward a wooden post, I tried to veer it away but the sticks did nothing. Hit the post and the vibration plate snapped off where it connects to the gimble, and the part of the ribbon cable that connects there tore. Everything else seems to be functional. Glad to know I will be able to fix this relatively cheaply myself and not have to deal with sending it in to DJI or buying a new drone.

[@dankellermeyer9330]

This 70 year old thanks you very much.

[@JohanBouveng]

Thanks for this video! Successfully replaced my ribbon cable. Please consider making a video of this process as you need to fold and insert the cable in the right order to get it right. Your description was useful but did not mention how to solve the puzzle! :)

[@welovetechstuff]

Thank you! It's a maze what they did with the motor flex connector...

[@gregbuckley8780]

What a great video - I've watched both your videos. You're great at showing exactly what to do. I'm hoping you'll do more! I don't need to do repairs at this time, but I'll know where to come if I do. Thx again...

[@BrettMcNary]

thank you. after watching 20 of these stupid videos, youre the first to show the bands removal. I forgot how to put them back on and searched for a video with them in the right position. thanks for including that liked and subbed

[@BobBruns]

I don't have the same screw heads you have on the demo here. Thankfully i have the correct drivers to take mine apart. Thank you for the video. I have a repair i need to make and this video will help :)

[@FixaCrash]

Oh that's interesting! What type of screw heads do you have? Glad this video is of help!

[@BobBruns]

I have 2 Mavic's and both take TR6

[@FixaCrash]

Interesting, thanks for the info :)

[@nigelthomas4193]

Fantastic'' very detailed information!! Best on line strip down 😊👌

[@classiczone1]

You're Awesome at what you do very informative your video the best on KZbin that i've seen. I'm not great at taking things apart but this video has made this process look simple ☺

[@FireDFPV]

Great instructions. I am just curious. Is it possible to remove the gimbal & the camera for using on another kind of drone/platform? I guess if we know the wiring diagram of those ribbon cables then it may be possible. But how do we know that? Thank you for the information.

[@baltimeat14]

really clear video. well done! I'm hoping to replace a gimbal ribbon cable...just hope my hands are as steady as yours!!

[@Greenfarmer25]

You're the best on youtube!❤️❤️❤️

[@juanchopdc]

Excelent Friend I could see how to dissasembly the Camera flexible muli-cable, very goog hands!!! Congratulations!!!

[@chwaqas2067]

i have broken my gimbal cables. i asked technician but he is asking much money for fixing it. now i wanna thank you to make me able an encourage to doing it my self. i will comment again when i will be fix it, thank you

[@williamb3323]

Did you manage to do it?

[@toukasnikos7219]

Very nice video, thank zog for helping us.You save me some bucks and make me happy again. Is not just for the money..but this I want to say Is..such a beautiful thing wenn someone is trying fixing something by himself. Regards from Germany:)

[@Mumstheword314]

Is it possible to replace the Video Cable Connector Wire???

[@yousifx2]

Best instruction on KZbin, thank you.

[@mikebelanger4165]

Gonna watch this one and the previous one for removing the gimbal several times each, as I have to do this with my MP - gimbal DOES go thru it's 'dance' when booting up, but I get no video feed from it when I go to fly and no gimbal control from the wheel or the 5-way button.

[@mianroca86]

Heyy. Thank you for your video, it saved my life. Good job!

[@curso88]

Hi. Excellent channel. Why are there gimbals with horizon problems? Can you make a video about this? Thanks in advance!!!

[@tatski2274]

Thank you so much! So if i just buy the 'Gimbal camera arm with flat flex cable' part then it would be easier since i will just be putting back the camera and install it back to the drone? I don't want to disassemble the whole gimbal as i might not be able to put it back! :) Pls comment. Thanks

[@chopstix011]

Best video you can find across the net on mavic drone fixing. I have a question here: i replaced my ribbon cable and the cable caught in smoke (with some flames) as soon as I turned on the drone. Now I don`t have the video feed either. Where could be wrong here? Thank you so much!

[@FixaCrash]

Thank you Quan! Flames are pretty uncommon, plenty of smoking drones though; email sent!

[@xray364]

Good video. I wanted to ask. I am having problems with I think the gimbal motor screw. It appears like there is a wobble in the plate where the screw is in but I cannot screw it tight. Is there a video on pulling the motor apart to see if is engages properly. I have gimbal overload error. 1/. The gimbal board needs replacing as I have identified this as a definite problem. 2/ with a working gimbal board the gimbal still gives an error. The ribbon has been replaced but I am thing it;s possibly the motor on the arm I was referring to. Any help and suggestions would be appreciated.

[@mikebelanger4165]

Those rubber vibration dampers aren't the easiest to get back on, even with tweezers. Took me almost 45 minutes for just one of them, but then, at my age (in my mid-60s), my hands and fingers aren't as steady as they used to be. My Mavic Pro flies (and does it well), but I get no video feed from the camera. It wasn't crashed or even hard landed, either. Just no video from the camera. I DO have gimbal control with either the wheel or the 5-way button, though and the gimbal goes through it's little 'dance' when booting up.

[@AntlerAssassinTakovich]

Interestingly I got this “Gimble Vibration Error” along with a noticeable vibration sound coming from my Mavic Pro last night. I had just changed out the propellers for platinum props. So I thought maybe that’s what it was. BUT. It was working fine for the previous 15 minutes and after battery 2 it started right after takeoff. Did it for about 3-4 Mins and stopped on it’s own. Mind you I’ve NEVER crashed my Mavic or had a hard landing. So I’m confused as to what caused this and if it’s something I need to worry about again. Being that it corrected itself.

[@pennesnatcherinc]

Is there a way to disassemble to entire gimbal including the arms? I have a bent arm and want to replace just the arm but don't want to break something. Thanks!

[@cekabu]

Thnx for the video. I have landed to a tree and then cannot make gimbal calibration. But i have the video feed. Now i changed the ribbon like you did and now i dont have a video feed and there is no gimbal movement. Then i also changed the video feed cable (silver cable) but no success. Still no video and gimbal not moving. It was ok before replacing ribbon and silver cable. What should i check? What can be the problem?

[@milesoroads]

Thanks for the great video,but.... This is not the broke part. Mine the vertical motor is stiff. Horizontal works fine and video feed is fine. Do you have any recommendations. It seems I tore up the part no one else has or fixed. Can that side be separated and put back together or do you have a full disassembly vid I am not finding? Thank you in advance.

[@hansolsson1857]

Fantastic video, saved me 200 Euro. Thanks, Anita!

[@limwellsingson]

Very well demonstrated. My camera makes weird "tac" sound everytime during start up. It sounds like the camera is hitting something when doing its calibration. I have crashed the drone but did not find any physical damage. But lately I have notice some lens fogging during flight. Image is literally unusable due to fogging. What do you think is the issue? Thanks.

[@pilotpatch7418]

Great video, thanks for taking the time to assist others.

[@jeomaiduldulao6655]

hi, very informative video, i was also hoping for you to disassemble the camera, theres fog inside the front glass of the lens in my mavic everytime i fly it, is there a way to disassmble it or atleast remove the front glass so i can clean it?

[@rayshowalter6265]

I was wondering, what happens if you remove the other screws where the pitch and roll are?

[@shb729]

I had an ocean crash and I'm trying to repair my mavic. It powers on, but I've noticed the gimbal gets too hot to touch, even after one minute power up. I'm wondering, if I disconnected the white power cable to the gimbal/camera, will that cut all power to the gimbal so I don't have to worry about it overheating/burning up, so I can work on just getting the mavic to fly with no video? Thanks.

[@photofactory3024]

How to check the electronic board on the shock absorbers hub.? Can I replace only the gimble and camera Bcz it is available in eBay. And I am sure about the gimble damage. Not sure about the mother board on shock absorbers Hub. Plz reply.!

[@isaacdehaven4296]

Will you please make a close up video on how to install the flat ribbon? I can't figure it out and I could really use your help

[@jgarcia2667]

Im having the same issues, did you happen to find a good video or schematic of the ribbon''s route?

[@michaelmonzon]

Great video thank you for that. I also had an accident and need the Lvds cable. Please inform me if you have news on that. I'm so bummed, had to climb a tree and couldn't do anything but let it drop, need to replace the ribbon cable, the vibration dampener board, lvds cable and hope for it to work 😢

[@michaelmonzon]

do you believe it to be posible to reconnect the three wires that broke on my lvds cable, how would one go about doing that? Can I solder them together?

[@FixaCrash]

Hi Michael, dude, I am so sorry to hear about that intense crash. Sounds like practically all of it broke. But good news, the LVDS cable just became available on eBay, and we'll have them on our site in the next week or so! I have heard of only one success story with soldering the cables together. Don't really imagine it's a good bet.

[@michaelmonzon]

Great News! Thank you :)

[@billytodd9929]

Had crash 2 of Rubber mounts on board come out of hole While having this repair r there any updates we can do

[@dkryuchkov]

Great video! But silver cable is not findeble. I need it with ribbon cable. If you found any sources for the silver data cable. - tell me please too.

[@FixaCrash]

They're now available on eBay, and should be available on our site in the next week or so.

[@presjar4016]

Hi! Great video! are you going to make a video of how to reassemble with a new flex cable? I'm finding it hard to kbow where to fold and insert the replacement flex cable.

[@FixaCrash]

Hi Presjar, 7:19 - 10:23 should help to show the ribbon cable path.

[@presjar4016]

Thanks for your reply about this and also the counter sunk screws. I should have been more clear in my question as you show the flex cable path very well in your video. The problem I has was where the new flex cable folds over its self to fit. It is a bit complicated. It would be great to see a video from you showing a new flex cable and then how you fold it an insert into the gimbal. I was only able to work it out because I had a few bits of the damaged cable that I could pull apart and see how it folds and sticks with the adhesive tape.

[@ccarnot]

Exactly the same for me ! Thank you ... Your video is perfect to remove the ribbon but it's difficult to instal the new one...

[@nidald]

Claude Carnot , hi I did replaced it, it was difficult, now is not even working

[@nidald]

FixaCrash , i live in Calgary, Canada, i followed your nice video and changed the ribbon, it wasn't easy , can I send it to you to fix it?

[@RobTibbett]

Awesome video, easy to follow, great work. Thank you.

[@danielrollins1466]

u just saved me a few hundred. got a mavic free and “broken”, just a ripped ribbon :)

[@davidcovington7804]

Hi, love your video's. Can you tell me where oh where do you get the wire covers and screw's and camera screw's for a bare bone gimbal with just the flex cable installed.

[@FinnSpencerArt]

stella stuff, thank you. saved so much money. recommend to all my drone friends

[@FixaCrash]

Thank you! Happy flying! ✈️📷

[@JoseSanchez360]

This video is how I have repaired my flex cable multiple times. Unfortunately after multiple changes my black and white cable broke on gimbal circuit board. I attempted solder fix, which looks horrible btw, however, when I turn it on the gimbal is making a screeching sound like motors spinning fast or something similar. Is there anyway to buy just circuit board?

[@FixaCrash]

Hi Jose, this may be late, but likely you would actually need a new gimbal, especially if any of the (gimbal) motors are overheating. Likely soldering the power wires back onto the circuit board didn't harm anything.

[@albkidstvvideos]

Hi Thank you so much for your videos, you’ve helped us a lot. I’ve changed the gimbal on mavic pro because it wasn’t responding at all but I could see the video live from whatever angle camera decided to point from my phone, now the gimbal is responding but there’s no picture coming through... Any advice 🙂 Thanks

[@greenmoneybag8935]

Nice video! Question, Can the gimbalmotors itself be repaired?

[@laurentc.8952]

is it the parts that should be change when we have the black screen issue ?

[@alldaysvision221]

Is it possible to calibrate the gimbal if the camera is not connected? I'm testing the gimbal, but the camera's cam is broken, I can't calibrate without the camera. I need to understand this situation, if so, I will buy the camera cable.

[@YeshuaDisciple916]

What tools do you need to disassemble? Besides the hex screws, what kind of plastic clip removers, or whatever you call it, does one need? *PLEASE* get back to me ASAP* !! Thank you. I need to do a repair, however, I'm not sure exactly what it is I need. *PLEASE HELP* !!!!!

[@hansolsson1857]

The blue disassemble tool she uses, is what you can buy as a tool for disassebling your iPhone, when you change battery. Cheap to buy.

[@mybeachshack]

VERY informative. You're doing a great job.

[@FixaCrash]

Thank you!

[@c.a.7366]

Hi! Can you make a video about how to change the camera glass? Thank you!

[@c.a.7366]

Can u can u?

[@Qasibr]

Thanks for the awesome videos! I took my Mavic on a bumpy dirt-bike trip, now when i turn it on the gimbal makes a strange sound during the start-up gimbal movement and after some movement, the app says “Make sure gimbal clamp is removed”. My gimbal clamp is already off. Do you think this could be caused by a faulty ribbon cable? I don’t think I have any qualified DJI people near me...

[@pagpag198]

realy good handy channel. thank u. but lne qeustion please. where could i get to buy the metal cable of the cam?

[@FixaCrash]

They're available on eBay, and we'll have them on our site in the next week or so!

[@presjar4016]

Do you just replace the gimbal drop hook with the 3d printed version? Are you looking to get a injection mould part made in the future?

[@FixaCrash]

Yep, we were the ones to actually design the 3D-printed version before the stock ones even came out. We make sure every part fits before we ship them out! As for the injection mold, that's currently not in the agenda, as the 3D-printed ones we make are very strong. Maybe for future parts :)

[@buildingjmpr67]

Great video, do you also have complete mavic pro gimbals for sale?

[@publosprimos]

Where can i find a replacement circuit board for the gimbal?

[@ccarnot]

thank's a lot! You made it possible for me to replace my ribbon.

[@FixaCrash]

That's great! Happy flying!

[@isiakamuazu2351]

Nice video. Super explanatory. Thumbs up.

[@starvinghate]

Hi! i have condensation inside the cam . how can i open it and remove water? help!! and thx!!

[@entropia666]

Great video! Unfortunately I'm unable to remove the camera, even doing the exact same movement as you with the same blue tool! It's really stuck, I tried with pryer, heating, cooling... Anything! Any special tip?

[@kellyvill9413]

It's not easy but if you follow instructions slowly you can do it

[@camaperture8116]

One of the four rubber bands on my damper plate for the gimbal popped out. Is there an easy way to pop it back in or do I need to disassemble it?

[@FixaCrash]

Hi there, thank you for reaching out :) if the band is not torn, then what we typically do is we take a pair of precision tweezers and gently push it back in. You can use any pointy instrument really. Just be gentle with the gimbal when holding the gimbal out of the way; don't want to cause a torn ribbon! - Anita @ FixaCrash

[@rockenbach17]

Parabéns pelo vídeo, o único com qualidade youtube. Meu robô quebra o cabo plano em uma queda, aparentemente, a prata está intacta, mas não tenho vídeo. A minha pergunta o vídeo também depende do cabo plano? Muito obrigado, parabéns novamente

[@alexvite5065]

I replaced my ribbon cable with a new one. I met started well and I was happy it worked. Unfortunately, after flying for 20min, the same gimbal motor overload issue reappeared. And the gimbal gets hot really fast, only after starting the drone for 30sec it’s already very hot. I opened the gimbal again and tried fixing the ribbon cable. But it didn’t help. Any idea what else I could do? Replace the whole gimbal? Buy another ribbon cable from another company? Thanks

[@FixaCrash]

Hi there, so sorry to hear about your drone :( it sounds like one of the motors or even electronics board is damaged on the gimbal. The gimbal is overworking itself and thus overheating. Unfortunately, this would mean that the gimbal assembly would need to be replaced. It was not an issue with replacing the ribbon; just the gimbal had this issue on top of the ribbon issue. If you get a replacement gimbal, make sure you get a whole assembly and not just the arms. The arms that are currently circulating around are usually taken from crashed drones, many not even tested before being shipped to you. If you need an assembly, feel free to reach out to us at fixacrash.com. So sorry for the news, hope this helps.

[@classiczone1]

Do you have to fold gimbal cable I've seen this mentioned in other videos i'm sure you would have mentioned if this was a requirement?

[@pickitup1]

Thank you for this - Question - I just took a motorcycle trip with my mavic and found that the gimbal will not roll it does pan and tilt for the start up. The cover on the metal data cable that the gimbal lock hooks on is broke so the gimbal was bouncing around from vibrations and I’m guessing the ribbon cable broke from this. The video feed was fine so I assume the data cable is good. Do you sell the cover that the gimbal lock hooks on to?

[@FixaCrash]

Hi, thank you for your question! I very likely do have the part in question. Just so that we can be sure--and also to address any other issues you may have--please shoot me a message and some photos to [e-mail]! Anita

[@likebliss]

i just removed my gimbal thanks to your previous video... but now I am inspecting the ribbon cable and it doesn't appear to be damaged... but the camera wouldn't power on, and the gimbal would flip really hard back and fourth before giving an error that says "Aircraft Motor Overload" Does this sound like a ribbon tear?

[@BV18BLD]

when you put back the camera on the motor,what is that whit thing?

[@FixaCrash]

BV18BLD I believe the white stuff is thermal paste, to help dissipate heat.

[@justletmetravel]

Great video and just ordered parts thank you for putting this video up and I have added it to my library also joined your channel

[@rednaxela1256]

Do you also have for mavic mini?

[@philipperivero6438]

hi, where did you get this blue pry tool?

[@DD-vi6or]

dose any one can explain why after i replaced gimball with original camera from mavic - both gimball and video -dead?

[@LocPH.]

Is this camera only compatible with the Mavic Pro?

[@HalLucyJen]

Is it necessary to re-glue the connectors when reassembling? If so, what product is suitable for this?

[@FixaCrash]

HalLucyJen Not really necessary; if you wanted to you could try neutral cure silicone rubber or liquid electrical tape. The purpose of the adhesive is to prevent vibrations (or crashes) from disconnecting the connection, but I haven't had any issues 🙂 I usually only use it for any soldering connections.

[@HalLucyJen]

FixaCrash thanks for the quick reply! I’m prepping to replace a gimbal and vibration plate, your videos are really helpful.

[@FixaCrash]

Thank you, good luck and remember to subscribe! Let me know if you need anything.

[@stephaneexos6081]

Hi, I research the cable to connect to the camera, the grey with multiples wires. Where can I buy it ?

[@FixaCrash]

They're available on eBay, and we'll have them on our site in the next week or so!

[@MrJtarbell]

This is a really well done video.

[@jgarcia2667]

hello! thanks for the awesome video, you are sooooo patient! Good instructional style. Quick question; in your experience with a loss of power to the gimbal after a crash do you think I broke the ribbon or the silver cable? I'm about to start tearing it apart to find out but if you already suspect .......please let me know. thanks again!

[@FixaCrash]

I'm sorry to hear about your gimbal. From your description it sounds like it may be the black ribbon cable, which supplies commands for the gimbal movements. The silver one supplies a video feed. Or it could be both, if you have neither. Hope this helps.

[@jgarcia2667]

hi! Thanks for the reply, I'm knee deep into the ribbon replacement,and it is literally kicking my butt.The ribbon route is primarily the issue . How do you keep the ends of the cable in contact with the gimbal? They don't "snap" in or anything as far as I can tell. The double stick tape that comes with the cable barely keeps it in place sooooooo?????Also, where do I get replacement gimbal screws?

[@FixaCrash]

The ends of the cable kind of snap in, sometimes the silicone rubber (the glue) gets in the way and more of it should be removed before the connector snaps in. You can find replacement gimbal screws on eBay, and they will be on our site in about a week or two. The measurements for the screw are: countersunk M1.2-.25x3.0

[@jgarcia2667]

You're awesome ! Thanks!

[@presjar4016]

Does anyone know the measurement details for the PH000 screws that hold the plastic covers to the gimbal? I have lost one and it would be good to know what sizing for thread etc these screws are.

[@FixaCrash]

Countersunk M1.2-.25x3.0

[@presjar4016]

I have found this ebay seller. I have asked if the are 0.25 thread. www.ebay.com.au/itm/M1-M1-2-M1-4-M1-6-304-A2-70-Stainless-Flat-Head-Phillips-Machine-Screws-GB-T819-/222122672093?var=&hash=item33b78affdd:m:mEoRMSoi0X9TKFW3KJ_faLg

[@Bendacho1991]

Danke für das Video so konnte ich meine Mavic pro reparieren 👌🏼

[@alexgoldman3239]

To OP or anyone else out there - I've replaced my gimbal ribbon cable, but the gimbal calibration keeps failing and the gimbal consistently "stutters" and sticks at certain increments. Is it possible I got a bad ribbon? Should I just get a new ribbon and try again? Or is a whole new gimbal in order? I've found gimbals on ebay with the ribbon installed but no camera or camera cable. Anybody had this experience? If anybody has good diagnostic experience please let me know!

[@AlejandroRondaSantamaria]

Thanks!! Could you serve some items(the silver data cable) to Spain ?? Thanks!

[@FixaCrash]

Hi, currently I haven't found any sources for the silver data cable, but I am happy to ship to Spain once they are in stock!

[@michaelcahill6914]

FixaCrash Hi. Great video is there anywhere i could get a camera lens for mavic as my one has scratches on the lens. Would be grateful for any help please. Thanks Michael.

[@AlejandroRondaSantamaria]

Would be great! please contact me if the parts are in stock :D Also this is the best fix mavic video ever, Thanks! :)

[@FixaCrash]

Hi Michael, unfortunately I couldn't find any replacement lens. Maybe you might be able to find a method online that will work for you to buff out the scratch, or you might even find a broken Mavic camera with a good lens where someone is willing to sell it for a low price. Make sure to get a lens protector once you get it fixed!

[@isaacdehaven4296]

can you please make a more in depth video on how the flat ribbon cable is installed? I'm replacing the ribbon and cannot figure out how to install the ribbon.. thanks for your time

[@francisleesc]

Thanks for the video. I had just broke my gimbal cables. Hopefully I can the spare parts to replace them.

[@trevorjames5493]

Hello hope you're having a good day I just had a quick question before I send my mavic Pro in for repair I'm a pretty handy person and I enjoy fixing things myself I replaced my gimbal ribbon cable twice with no issue however the third time just recently I installed another cable the same way and when I turned on the Drone smoke started coming out of the camera of course I turned it off quickly to prevent any more damage but I can't figure out what the problem is because literally nothing happened. So my question is there anything I can do before I send it in? what would cause this? Do you think something is ruined for sure because I seen smoke or is it possible all the parts are still good even though there was smoke? I don't see any burn marks and everything looks fine but if I plug it in and turn it on it will smoke again so I don't want that to happen any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated. I know it's impossible to judge without seeing the Drone in person but I'm just wondering off the top of your head if you could think of anything. If not I understand just kind of at a standstill right now thank you for your time look forward to hearing from you.Cheers

Hi Trevor, Thank you for reaching out! You might check the ribbon cable near the largest connector (the one that plugs into the gimbal main circuit board) and see if the ribbon looks burnt. That's the most common place I see ribbon cable burns. As for the repair, if you replaced the cable three different times and basically got the same result, then it's possible a gimbal motor or chip is damaged; there's not too many things that can go wrong with a ribbon replacement itself. We of course can do a repair, or provide a replacement gimbal, but in any case, make sure you buy the whole assembly (with the ribbons, camera module, and the gimbal mount). The gimbal arms only units you see online are often taken from crashed units, and have a very low probability of working. Hope this helps. Of course, feel free to email me at [e-mail] if you have any questions, or would like a repair or parts! Anita
