Loudmanv8 ok?

Your Not Lying😂

lmao facts 🤣

It's just fireworks not hurting anybody fuck the cops

You can find them on eBay. Search for "aluminum gimbal plate." Also, you can find the original plates on eBay and Amazon now.

most people get parts off eBay or Amazon. www.amazon.com/MagiDeal-Gimbal-Absorbing-Damping-Replacement/dp/B074ZJVSW5/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1513152353&sr=8-11&keywords=dji+mavic+pro+replacement+parts

I have not used that part. That was just a quick search I did for you.

Thank you. The gimbal is tilted due to the one rubber band being broken...

Glad to hear! I haven't crashed mine anymore so it's still working good as new. :-)

I can land a real plane nice and smooth but I crash this stupid simulator every time. I think the instructor rigged it.

Cool!...glad to hear you were able to do it. If I ever need to do it again I will try it that way.

I do not think he is telling the truth. I attached the plate without pulling it apart BUT there was not enough slack in the ribbon for the Gimbal to have full range of motion. I tried several different ways and even tried cutting slots in the bracket to run the ribbon inside but it was all in vein. The impassible hurdle is the screws. Since you do not have the drone apart you have to pull the gimbal up to access the screw to attach it to the plate. When you do that you are leaving too much of the ribbon on the other side. I was unable to pull the slack up and make it all work. If he did manage to do it I would love to see a video. Even then taking the drone apart was easy and then you can leave the anti vibration plate as is with no need to cut it.

I had the same issue of not having enough travel until I cut the slot. Here are the key things that I did. 1. The has an anchor that was originally between gimble and plate. This needed to be free to to allow gimbal assy to be attached to plate before re-installing. 2. I did use a fine hack saw blade to create a slot to feed ribbon thru prior to attaching assy and plate. 3. Once this was done I manually checked travel to ensure ribbon was not stopped it. 4. I used long needle tweezers from a watch makers repair kit I had to slightly stretch elastic and get plate back in. It worked for me. I tried a couple times and the ribbon placement is key.

Sorry to hear that. I used a plastic pry bar for cell phones. Go to Amazon and type in something like "phone opener tool". You will see things similar to mine which should all work. Im not sure how else to help as it can be a pain sometimes. Just keep going slow and careful. You might want to buy more than one tool as well as they wear down easy. If you break the top then search ebay. I have seen tops on there many times for reasonable prices.

Ah, spare body top part! Knowing they can be bought would give me some comfort whilst trying to pop it open. I'll see if I can find a plastic tool as well. Thanks for the tip, Terry!

No problem. Good luck!

Cool, glad to hear.

I just sent you an email. You can reply with the picture.

Im not sure which day but I could meet you somewhere. I work all day with long hours and I work all over DFW so I dont know where I will be at the moment and It might take me a couple of days after I get it from you to be able to get to it. If you're still around we could meet again or I could ship it back to you. I know there is one day next week that I will go to fort worth and take 20 west which will go through part of Arlington. I will email you in a minute.

are you trying to replace the plate without removing the top of the drone?

I have seen the plastic plate on ebay but its hard to tell if its better. It might be but I would need to hold it in my hand to see how sturdy it is. I charge 75 an hour and that should only be an hour job for the plate and then whatever shipping cost is to send it back to you. I just cant guarantee that is all thats wrong with it of course. Some people have replaced the plates only to find out that they had other issues and still had to send it back to DJI.

Thanks for the reply Terry. I would only ask you turn it on first the camera everything is fine. This was not a crash it was a stupid mistake the camera going in the DJI bag incorrectly pressed down and pop I was so upset Never again without the cover Brother . Terry where are you located what's your zip code I'll give a would $100.00 work up front and pay for shipping . Your a straight up guy I trust you brother. I'm in Orange County Ca and also Dallas Texas my son moved his Roofing business to Texas

Im just 20 minutes south of Dallas..75154. do you have an email? I will send you the address.

no, my video still worked. You may have a damaged ribbon or camera or maybe a ribbon is loose inside or something.You probably cant break it any more than it is so its probably worth opening up and looking at. I wouldnt buy any parts till you figure out the video feed.

Thank you for the reply. I watched your video and opened it up but did not see any visible damage to any wires. the plate is definitely broken.

Did it hit really hard? It may have damaged the camera or the ribbon but sometimes the damage to a ribbon can be hard to see. You could try buying a ribbon from ebay but it might be best to send it back to DJI. Its possible the board was damaged as well so if you cant see something obvious then its just a gamble to which it is. Sorry to hear it got that jacked up. Mine only fell a few feet and landed in the grass so I was lucky it didnt do more damage. Still kicking myself for not trying to catch it but I didnt want to get jacked up by the blades. If only I had a little net.

check out this video. The damage to his cable is not apparent till he is actually removing it from the camera. This could be your issue as well......th-cam.com/video/V4Tg9KWvc28/w-d-xo.html

Why do you think the arms need to come off?

Not the Mavic arms sorry, I mean the gimbal parts. The only videos or explanations I've seen just talk about replacing the broken plate but don't talk about how to replace the cable ribbon. I'm assuming it has several connections for each part of the gimbal? Any advice or videos on getting the cable out? I just had a crash and the gimbal survived. It is still moving freely, but I can see the ribbon cable ripped and hanging down from aircraft. I'm getting an error in the app because obviously it can't move the gimbal.

I might be completely overestimating the difficulty, but I just haven't seen anyone do it yet so I'm a little nervous.

hmmm. Are you talking about the ribbon cable in the video where you see me take the two small screws out of the camera that are holding the small piece of broken gimbal plate? If so, the one end to the board is easy but I didnt open up the actual camera to see how the ribbon was attached but if it just plugs in then I would think its easy to do..The other cable just threads up through the body and is very easy. Its really not that bad. Just go slow and careful.

It might be best to open it up and see before you order any parts.

Leon Huinga ...are you talking about the piece with the 4 rubber bands on it ?

Hey bro if you pause your video at 11:14 you will see the cable connected to the gimbal and board. The one your hand is not touching. The bundle of wire all most look like fine Hair.

Not the vibration board or the ribbon cable. Its another bundle of wires that connect to the gimbal i believe its for the movement of the gimbal not too sure

Probably better to see it at 11:18

Leon Huinga ....hmmm....I don't know what they would call that. It's that silver colored mesh of wire. I thought it was just bare wire but I really didn't look at it too much. If it's just bare wire you could make your own. Did you open the camera end to see how it's attached or if it's even possible to replace it? Also, where would you be able to order from? I thought they wouldn't sell parts.

Im not sure on the silicone. You have to figure they put it there for a reason but I think its just for the vision sensors so it would probably just impact those sensors and give an error if the ribbon pops off. Perhaps vibration might cause it to pop off. Glad you got it working.

That sucks. Did it look like the ribbon was hanging on something? Hopefully its just that and not something wrong with the camera too. Taking the thing apart really wasn't that bad.

According to Knowonefpv its 1.5mm or about 18 gauge. The plate definitely works. The only reason that I bothered to make a video was to kind of prove that his method works and that its not that difficult to do. DJI is still using the same plate for repairs and I've heard of the repair costing anywhere from 185.00 to 300.00.

Also, Knowonefpv sold some plates to a guy that does repairs. You might email him and see who it is and what the cost is. His email is in the description.

I wondered the same thing after I repaired it but I never did investigate further. However, I did think of making a small cut on the aluminum plate and bending part of the cut out to the side and then bending back after the ribbon is inside. Aluminum is really easy to cut and bend so you might have luck that way. If I had to do it again I might try it. Let us know if you try it. Hope it works for you.

I should add that its probably going to be easier to just open the thing up but let me know how it goes.

What about magnetic interference with the compass? Not a problem with the aluminum I'm guessing.

It didnt cause an issue for me or know1fpv. You could always hold a compass up to a piece of Aluminum to test but Im pretty sure Aluminum does not disturb the compass. Real planes have a ton of Aluminum and I dont see them flying crazy. A steel plate might jack it up.

Hello, you can email this guy at know1rc@Gmail.com. He is the one selling it. He will send you a payment link and then mail it to you. I think it was 35.00 for a flat plate without the holes in it or 50.00 for the camera holes pre drilled and the plate to be pre bent to fit. Its probably worth the extra 15.00 to have that done for you.

Thanks for adding your ebay link!

Terry Graham Glad the plate is working out for you.
