    This video helped me a lot and I found an easier way to wrap the cable around the camera. Just start from the camera connect first next time, if there is a next time! Thanks for the video!

      Hello Friend,
      I've been making the shift from the phantom tape with all the steps made in the video. when actually it did not work. You know what can go through with it, or a screening method that can be done?

    • @DGMaxWax
      @DGMaxWax  8 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @Anthony-tj7jx

    Hey dude, I did this repair last night (without instruction, I'm searching for a solution to another problem now) and just a word of advice. You said wrapping the cable around the camera axis was the hardest part, to which I agree, but if you start at the camera (plug wire into camera first), then install the camera and screw, THEN wrap the cable around and then do the rest backwards.. you don't have to wrap the cable underneath itself. The next arm is problematic as well but my solution to that was opening the housing, open the clip, close the housing, then use tweesers or something small to close the clip with the housing encasing it.

    My yellow cable (see at 9:26) was also broken. Can we find it somewhere to buy and change by ourself?

    • @karslake10
      @karslake10 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you record well leave it... if you insist must take gimbal full apart an repalce the yaw arm. or straighten it prior heating it up somewhat. It is a difficult task,

  • @BB420INC
    @BB420INC 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    great video hope i never need to do it. o would add if you are in a environment with alot of static electricity to wear a grounding strap.even if you're not it would be a good ideal. a static shock can destroy circuitry

  • @-JonnyBoy-
    @-JonnyBoy- 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just a hint when removing the plastic clips that hold on the gimble. You push the clip back down onto the shaft and leave it for 10 seconds then pull it back up and it will come right off.

  • @joehowarth8149
    @joehowarth8149 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    thank you. do you know if we can fix just the up/down swivel motor? mine seems to be totally stuck after a firmware upgrade to v1.7.9. no crashes or anything, and i cant seem to downgrade my fw to an earlier version from v1.7.9 now... tried 4 different ways, using SD card, etc.

    I have followed your video until 12:52 when you removed the screw, then remove the camera. I removed the screw but the camera is not sliding off. Any suggestions? Did i miss something?

    • @DGMaxWax
      @DGMaxWax  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Josh Lartigaut Some of the loctite may have gotten into the shaft or something. You could try gently prying it with a screwdriver but be careful and don't break it.

  • @mikemcking
    @mikemcking 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Look at your video at 13:15-13:20 (and also at 13:49) and note the rather large gap above the ribbon cable connector. That gap is large enough that you can reach in with a tool and flip up the ribbon cable lock, which means you do not have to disassemble the motor setup.
    What kind of tool? Take a hatpin (ie, a long pin) and heat up the end with a propane torch and form a U-shaped hook with a very small radius....say 1/16th inch.
    That will allow you to poke in the tool and hook the cable lock from behind and pop it up.
    For whatever reason that particular location is the only location with a large gap above the connector allowing access to the ribbon cable lock with a U-hook.

    • @DGMaxWax
      @DGMaxWax  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Mike McCarthy hmm interesting, I'll have to take a look later today

    • @mikemcking
      @mikemcking 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Another (messier) way would be to drill a small hole in the pivot arm cover directly over the cable lock to allow access to the lock without removing the cover. A hole in that location would be harmless, but who likes to drill holes????

    • @DGMaxWax
      @DGMaxWax  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Mike McCarthy haha I don't mind drilling holes... As you can tell by one of my other videos.

  • @viewtx8233
    @viewtx8233 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have quick question that I'm having trouble with. Do you see that pin your finger is pointing at at 16:52 ? That pin doesn't exactly go in and out of that hole in the vibration board very easily without taking the board off. Is it ok to bend the board enough to slip the pin in or is there another trick? I replace my vibration board and now I wish I had put that pin in before I attached the board to the drone itself because it doesn't want to cooperate if you put it in the way it's supposed to be... so mine is upside down and I don't want to start the project all over if I can help it. Any ideas on how to solve this small problem and has anyone else had this problem? Thanks in advance for any help.

  • @chad6211
    @chad6211 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    *Dont use this for 4K cameras*. You 'need' to start at the camera end for that version. The ribbon connector inside to the camera will never allow that wind and is a lot tighter fit and use the screw hole on the opposite side to mount camera to shaft . Yes I found out the hard way. Good video though..

  • @TheCobra423
    @TheCobra423 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mine broke the exact same way about an hour ago. Is there a way that you can check to see if the camera motor still functions or should you just replace the gimbal arm and ribbon cable and hope for the best?

  • @MasterShneef
    @MasterShneef 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi, the same thing has occurred to me on my Phantom 3 Advanced but I'm just trying to see if it will still fly with the damage that has occurred and it won't. When I power it on, yellow lights flicker non stop and it won't let me calibrate the drone. I've tried doing a software update on the drone itself but it didn't go through. If I buy the parts you did to fix the gimbal, do you think it will fix the errors that are occurring to my drone?

    • @DGMaxWax
      @DGMaxWax  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Seth van Zyl make sure you purchase he ones for the advanced, but yes. And I believe here is a way to remove the gimbal completely and still fly.

  • @housechannel295
    @housechannel295 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Easy to follow, except for the last part about wrapping the cable around and under. Took time, but I did figure it out. You could use a close up shot or a couple of still pictures there to help explain it. For the most part, this was easy to follow, and make no mistake it is a difficult fix that takes time and lots of patience to do. Please, in the future, forget the music. That said, thank you very much for this video.

    Did you run into a problem with the screws being different sizes and types when you went to put it all back together? I have three different screws left to install and none seem to work in the holes left to fill. I asked DJI if they had a diagram showing which screws went where in the camera and gimble arm assembly, unfortunately the help chat folks did not, nor could they direct me where to find on. Would you mind taking yours apart one more time and differentiate between which screws go where in the reassembly of the camera/gimble unit. Or even better if you can point me in the right direction I will contact whom ever you might know that can provide a breakdown of these pieces. I believe that might help everyone in the repair process.

    Josh I did the same thing "broke the gimbal" watched your video to repair it, after putting it all back together and test'n it out, I noticed the camera wasn't working very well to the up and down button. I touched the camera to see if I could straighten it up, the camera was so HOT I couldn't touch it. Can you tell me what might be wrong?

  • @SonnyDickens
    @SonnyDickens 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I ordered the same kit, but my gimbal doesn't do its "dance" when you turn on the drone. What might cause that? I get video and everything but the gimbal hangs limp and doesn't respond to me moving it. BTW, I hit a small pine tree limb not going fast, and it fell about 6 ft.

    • @DGMaxWax
      @DGMaxWax  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Sean Purnell hmm, I'd go through again and make sure all your ribbon cable connections are correct, especially check the one for the motor. Possibly look at the position sensors and see if there is any damage as well. Other than that I'm not sure.

      +ghanim alshanfari That, I'm not sure of. I know there is now a version called the phantom 3 4K which is essentially a Standard with a 4K camera. I just haven't done the research. If you end up finding out come back and let me know because I'd be very interested to find out.

    This music is so distracting. listen, this tutorial is great and all, but you speed it up at the wrong times. Also you need to get right to the point. the actual tutorial doesnt start until later on in the video.

      +Nathaniel Kibler I'm not sure what two wires you're talking about that aren't in the ribbon cable?

    hey i love ur vids ive been watching alot but i was wondering if you can take off the gimbal of like you did could you but a P3 pro 4k camera and connect it to the standard drone if so could you please do a video on how to do so

    • @DGMaxWax
      @DGMaxWax  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +isaac moore I'm not sure about this one and sadly until I have the need to do so I probably won't get to try it. I do know hey now make a 4K version of the phantom 3 standard but I'm not sure if it has different hardware to be able to use that camera.

    Hi my friend crashed my drone & the camera broke off. The only physical piece that broke was the mount, but the camera is still in one piece. The black & white wire disconnected so can that be soldered back on?
    I attached the male/female connector w/ the rows of wires into the drone, but didn't see the camera turn back on or do that rotating calibration thing.

      did you solder them on ? did it work ? mine is the same way - the black and grey cable ripped out of the plug - the ribbon cable is ok .... i was wondering if i can just solder those on ?

    • @DGMaxWax

      +Roberto Febles I don't think so. I believe the Phantom 4k also has more powerful onboard computers to handle the 4k.

    Hello. I was in the same way as you. I replaced the cable and the broken parts, but the camera is running back and forth and does not stop. writes an error message was that "Gimbal motor overload". What can be wrong? Do you have an idea?

    • @DGMaxWax
      @DGMaxWax  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Képes János Possibly the sensor got damaged or the actual motors.

    I realize this is an old thread but all the focus for the repair is on the camera nothing was said about checking the motors from the sudden stop of hitting a tree I know if one motor is dragging and you put it up in the air it will come back down found that out the hard way

    so it's basically a gamble, you don't know if the camera is still operable when you buy through parts?!

    • @DGMaxWax
      @DGMaxWax  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn't have any fears that the camera wouldn't work in my situation. I guess you'd have to evaluate how damaged the camera is and decide if it's worth attempting to fix.
