If this is the first time you've seen this video, thanks so much for watching!
If you're having dejavu (aka you've seen this video before) it's because the first upload had some copyrighted music on it that I had used by mistake so I had to reupload it. I hope it's just as good if not better the second time around!
sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly lost my login password. I would love any tricks you can give me
@Boston Houston Instablaster :)
@Vincent Shepard i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Vincent Shepard It worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my ass!
@Boston Houston no problem :D
I cannot explain how happy I was when my gimbal "did a little dance." Thank youuuuuuu!
Fixed my transmission cable with this video. Thank you so much man!
Thank you for the walkthrough made fixing my drone very easy!
Thank you. This helped me immensely. Even the music kept me calm as I fiddled with those tiny screws. :)
You're welcome!
We really enjoyed watching this video. The MAVIC PRO is AWESOME! We had to get one too. SMASHED THAT LIKE!
You are a lifesaver buddy. Thank you so much for making this video ~ Daniel
Thank you, i found this video very helpful! Great job!!!
You're very welcome!
Hello, thanks for the video! Could you re send the link for the magnets on amazon? Also what will I need those for?
Thank you so much for your work ! I did everything step by step and it works! Good job!
Thanks for showing me how to do the fix. Back in the air already.
Congrats.! The video its amazing...! My Mavic also is in "abnormal vibrations conditions"..Just dont have (not even close ) the skills needed to perform a "surgery" like this one..! Great video anyway..!!
Thanks legend 👌🏼 helped me big time 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you this helped me soooo much! I don't know how long my "repair" is going to hold up but at least it won't cost me $200 every time I want DJI to do it.
you saved me at least a couple hundred dollars! thanks!
5 year later this is the best vid on how to do this
Thank you!!
Thank you for the video. It helped me replacing my camera
Watching 5 years later. Saving because I just crashed mine lol thanks for the how to my man
Hello, do u where can I buy ribbon bend ? Thank u!
I appreciated your video. I did not appear to have any broken cables just the gimbal mounting plate. When I reassembled and turned on the humble appeared to move properly at first but then smoke appeared from under the right front ( with drone facing forward) of the top cover. Any ideas of what to look for?
I'm not sure, I haven't seen that before :/
Pilot.. Awsm vid ! I actually missed the part where the ribb cables were damaged, was that the only thing that was damaged, I just received my pro platinum as my first drone. The camera (I think is what's called the gimbal) freaks me out how it swings around wildly, makes me worried about jarring it if I had simular misfortune. I will say.. seeing that you are brave enough to take on something like this should tell everyone they can do this too ! I fly rc planes for a living, I should have done this long before now ! Does look like a fun time. Thanx digital guy.
how do you get people to master the video and how to change camera parts as you play video quickly
Thank you so much for this thorough and detailed video. It helped give me the confidence to successfully tear my Mavic apart and replace the vibration plate. Great editing, zoom, lighting, and overall content! Did you ever have issues with either of the two front collision avoidance connectors coming loose, since you didn't glue them back down?
You're very welcome! I didn't have any issues with the front sensor connectors but I did end up with the 2 screws that hold the gimbal onto the vibration plate coming loose... I wouldn't try over tightening them but I would be sure to add a little extra loctite. Good luck!
TimNummy Ahh great advice!
What Phillips screw driver did you use to take the camera lens off of the actual silver/gray control arm?
A really tiny one - this kit should have what you need: amzn.to/2fA9pwo
Amazing.. Very good job. Need to be . Thanks my friend
Hello.
Can u help me.
After I take off my drone with in 1 to 2 seconds it fly forward itself.
How to fix it.
Please help me.
Thanks Tim, good video. I was just wondering. Had you pulled it apart before ordering the stuff you needed or you just ordered everything just in case.
I had ordered everything I thought I might need prior to taking it apart.
Only if the black flat wire is broken is there a chance of losing the image of the camera too. .? My Mavic crashed .. plz reply
The black flat wire is the gimbal motor control wire, the video is the silver multi-cable looking wire.
TimNummy Well, my English is not so good that I can recognize irony or sarcasm or .... But I love your videos, especially those about the mini lathe and the repair videos.
Yes, I've also seen this in the original version before. So what, where is the problem?
Keep it up. Your videos are synonymous without sound very well understandable. And I could see them again and again and ...
Cause my English is not so good, this was translated be Google Online Translater. Sorry about that.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that (also Google translated it well enough)... The first video had a copyright issue with the music so I had to reupload it.
Thanks again :)
tim, do you help fix drones for customers ? I just recently crashed mines and I need some help please!
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
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* !!!!!
Good work. However, you didnt showed that part where you changed the ribbon cable. i had the exact same issue and i wanted to see how you fix the connectors of the ribbon cable back. Do we need to put the glue back in place on the connectors?. The issue i am facing is that the gimbal is not stablizing after replacing the ribbon cable
👆👆👆 contact this expert to help you fix it....
I crashed and only the ribbon cable appeared to be cut.
Replaced my gimbal ribbon, still no gimbal movement. Error in app says camera sensor issue. Replaced the transmission cable. Still same error. Did you ever have a problem with the video feed not showing in the DJI app when you re-installed a few times?
Other than sending the drone back to DJI i'm running out of things to replace!
Did you find a solution. Have the same issue. It was powering before changing the ribbon but now no video and gimbal not moving
Platinum pro and pro have same cable?
I have got platinum pro, on online seller sales for pro? Are they same
I'm not sure..
Bro do I need to replace the ribbon, if the camera don’t rotate left and right after it swings up and down when I turn it on? Please I need help, there is still image but camera not moving when I scroll on the controller
Either that or check the connections, one of them might have popped off.
TimNummy yea I just replaced the gimbal and same problem, so I guess I have to replace ribbon?
Glad to see this back up but in this new one the audio is clipping and distorting yo. Gotta watch them levels.
*edit* actually I never noticed before but the audio in a few of your videos is clipping due to the loudness. Probably because this is the first time I've watched them with a pair of my better cans.
Thanks! This case is probably because I deleted the movie project so it was compressed once, then the audio added again/modified, then recompressed, then uploaded to youtube and compressed again.
Also I could use a better microphone probably - I always feel like the voice overs end up super quiet so I push the levels on them.
Either way I appreciate you watching and commenting! One of these days I'll figure it out haha
Nice. I crashed mine into Power Lines.
Oh god, I have this operation coming soon 😭 Not sure what's even broken, but the video is shaky and vibrating. Maybe some cable broken. I thought I buy refurbished gimbal from amazon and also new vibration plate. I think tge refurbished gimbal has video cable and the other cable installed. I don't know what is the easiest way to do it. Or maybe just replacing the cables to my own gimbal? 🤔
Where do you get parts from?
Amazon! Check the links in the description
Speed threw the part i needed......
আমার Done খুব পছন্দ
Am I Crazy? Or is this the second time you uploaded this video?
You're not crazy! There was a copyright issue with the music the first time so I had to reupload it. Thanks for watching again :)
Thanks!
6:13
i don't think the video could have been done any better
DJI has the worst customer service EVER. finally they send my controller back "fixed" and it drifted while hovering into a tree and crashed, never crashed a drone before. hopefully I can self repair the gimbal from this video.
Wait a second.......
I've seen this before, but where ?
Haha I don't mean to trick you! Music copyright issue on the old one :/
TimNummy bummer, the good thing is we get to see it again
TimNummy btw love your videos. The sarcasm at the beginning of this one was great
Thanks! :)
What you did not want to show the critical part of removing the camera lens?
Way too complicated 😮
Nice video but get rid of the music. Made me fall asleep. I don't know why people thing that everyone posting videos thinks their music is going to push the video over the top. I stopped watching, I couldn't take it.
this fast camera does not allow me to learn how to repair I did not like the video
Carlos Gadea I guess you missed the links in the description for the real time recordings of the repair...
TimNummy gracias amigo pulgar arriba a tu video.
Just adjust the video playback speed.
