    Such a legend mate... this helped me fix my phantom 3. I didn’t have the correct tool to tighten that screw so I just used a blunt knife and that worked. Very happy cheers

    Thanks for the help. Have tried similar before without success. I took your second section of the video but also added super glue to the spindle as the camera would slip and get out of alignment and then shake. Your method and the glue have worked a treat. Thanks.

    Thank you so much for this. Mine crashed and didn't realize the orientation of the potentiometer was the wrong way when I put it back together. Already ordered a new potentiometer and a yaw motor based on solutions I saw on other videos but so glad I'm seeing this still. Worked like a charm.

    You do not need to separate the motor from the casing in order to re-align the spindle. You do what he says you shouldn't do. Lift the circuit board, turn the spindle by hand or with long nosed pliers. The fitting on the board can be realigned, it turns easily with a screw driver or tweezers, to allow the spindle through. The motors are pressed into the housing, if you pop it out, it becomes a weak point and can separate when the drone is in flight or knock/bumped (heavy landing?). Unless you drive the spindle fully back into the housing, there will always be this risk. A slight knock and the motor can just fall apart. The motor windings are magnetised and will hold the motor in the housing because of the steel lining. If you look at the back of the housing where the spindle appears, a non-separated one will show the spindle flush with the outside surface of the housing. One that has been separated will be slightly recessed. I thought the prizing down of the gimbal mount to rotate the Yaw motor was a bit iffy as well, all you have to do is release the rubber dampers and drop the gimbal down. That's how I would do it anyway.

      Thank you for your reply. Although this would have probably been fine in hindsight, this video was made 3 years ago when there weren't many videos around. So a lot of what you see is just people trying out different things based on what they read. I definitely don't have that drone anymore. But what I found worked for myself and others. If anyone reads your comment, then they should try yours first in order to not play with the circuit board. Especially if you aren't grounded. I always am grounded, and so doing what I did would have no consequences. I appreciate the feedback though and everyone should try that first if they still have this drone. Just FYI, I wasn't able to turn it without removing the circuit board because that part is meant to be tight by default so that it doesn't spin on its own. But again, people can try what you said first if they want

    • @alexcroteau9799
      @alexcroteau9799 Рік тому

      I did this and am having the problem that you are describing. the motor is barely held on. and falls off at the smallest bump. how do i make sure that does not happen?

    • @martinredman9402
      @martinredman9402 Рік тому

      @@alexcroteau9799 You can try pressing the parts together and relying on the magnetised windings to keep things together. I wasn't happy with this, so I bought a new motor that was tightly "sealed". You need to buy the right arm and motor. The Yaw is inside the gimbal, the middle one is the Roll and the one linked to the camera is the Tilt.

    • @heartlineeducation5913
      @heartlineeducation5913  6 років тому

      I'm not sure but in my experience, the standard does not have the same GPS capabilities as the pro. I bought one and used it twice before selling it and going to the pro. It doesnt hook up to an many satellites so it's not as stable.

    Hey another thing that's crazy, so my phantom 3 standard hit a street branch, and then smacked my driveway, and it cracked the gimbal bracket that mounts to the bottom of the drone, so I glued n fixed that, drone was fine, but then when I started it up, I realized that it said couldn't start and couldn't calibrate the compass, so I realized that when I tryed popping the top Plastic cover back in from when it cracked. I accidentally broke the compass plug that plus into the circuit board, so I went n bought me a Phantom 4. But anyways, I then took apart my P3s and I soldered the wires back onto the circuit board and I got the compass Workin again, but then I realized that ever since then now, I have two problems, the camera is going crazy for a minute, and after a little while, it fixes itself. But another thing also that i never had happen before, it says can't fly yet, drone still warming up or whatever. What is that all about tho??? Bc I've never had a problem before where the drone would say warming up n not ready to fly yet, wtf???? And also. The camera spinning crazy.
    Someone please tell me why my drone says not ready to fly still warming up, tell me why when it never did that shit before tho???
