dude this has been driving me crazy since I bought one of these second hand. I googled this issue and looked on forums and this video is the only place that actually describes how to do this. Super simple, but I just never noticed the lever lifts up.
Once again, frustrating problems are thwarted by the power of TH-cam and the undeniable force of a fellow human who cared enough to make a video...the miraculous forces combined to form a intense beam of knowledge that successfully blasted my ignorance of the spring loaded leverage thingies, thus helping my gimbal lock properly and avoiding certain world destruction. Thank you.
THANK YOU! I had asked on forums and gotten no answer, mine is so loose that it makes everything unbalanced within a short time of using it. Such an easy fix!
I"ve upgraded to the RS3 Pro, but this info is extremely useful, I remember having the same issue and wasn't really sure what to do back then, so thanks for sharing bro
Daniel, thanks man. I went and bought a hex tool because of course I couldn't find one to fit the screw. I began working to tighten and kept thinking damn I am going to strip this. Then I looked on TH-cam and caught your video and thanks to you was able to tighten it the way you showed vs stripping the heck out of the screw. Thank you! Subbed just by this video alone!
Maaan you’ve just safed my life, I bought used RS3 Pro and I had the same issue, I was thinking that something is wrong with it. I tried this wrong way with the screw, but the solution is so simple! Thank you :)
Legend! Had the same issue with the rs3. I had to use some small pliers to hold the bottom screw in place while moving the top clip but it worked! Thanks!!!
game changer! thanks. And for the base plate latch, you have to unscrew the hex screw, and move the lever the same way you did in the video (except it's not spring loaded) and screw it back!
Great video. I had the same problem after my mini 3 fell down and this got loose. The pulling up did not work so I pulled out the small star screw Tightened the mechanism and screw again the screw (with no force- it is not the force of the tightening that makes the clamp tight but the teeth mechanism) It worked perfectly
"What you don't want to do is..." Me: Hiding under the desk... Good thing I felt there is something wrong with playing around with the screwdriver and I decided to check TH-cam. Thank you so much for the quick help man!
Great video! Unfortunatley, mine loosened too much to the point where it popped out! 🙈 Any ideas how to screw it back in? I can't seem to get it to grip with that movement you showed. Appreciate any adivce. Thanks 🙏
I'm trying to do this - but the problem is when I lift it up and turn it counter-clockwise it DOESN'T disengage from the grooves - so that I can't tighten it - any thoughts?
@@foryourconsiderationpod yes, thanks I should have commented further - I used a screwdriver to stop the grooves turning - thanks for the tip all the same
Thats a tough one. I looked at mine and you're right. It doesnt have the loaded spring like the others. I'd reach out to DJI and potentially send it in for repair. CHEERS!
@@danielporterAZ Yes, i was. I bought it new the day before and tested it yesterday, because had a filmday today. Turned out it was indeed broken and got a new one, an hour before my shoot😅
You may need to push down on the inner screw to help it catch the threads again. Just don’t attempt to turn that middle screw. If this fails I’d reach out to dji.

Came here with an rs3 that had the same problem. This got me where I needed to be!! Thanks so much!

Still relevant 2 years later with the Ronin RS4. Thank you!
a BIG thanks Daniel!! I was getting seriously pissed with those loose levers !
Thanks man! For those who are still having issues and this clamp moving with your movements, try to keep it straight up and turn smoothly
i have the same problem but mine is out what i ahve to do please
@@samirBeorn you need to keep straight to the top and turn smoothly then it will work.
@@samirBeorndid you manage to put it back together brother?
@@Shotbyobey i did
@@samirBeorn can you share how brother?

Thank you for this! Was so mad for so long that it was so loose. It caused so many balancing issues even though I kept balancing perfectly. 🙌🏽🔥🔥🔥
Dude! Thank You. I JUST order a Torx set from Amazon! I'm so glad I saw this video before that package came!! Thx!
I was tightening the hex and was wondering why wasn’t it going anywhere. Thank you so much!
Mother of god! I was gonna put some gaffers tape to help secure mine after numerous times of coming loose. THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!
Maaan you’ve just safed my life, I bought used RS3 Pro and I had the same issue, I was thinking that something is wrong with it. I tried this wrong way with the screw, but the solution is so simple! Thank you :)
I’ve been trying to find a screw for the longest. This saved my life lol thanks! 🙏🏽
Thanks for watching!
Dude, I was already searching my tool kit for a hex head driver. You saved my ass. thanks
Wish I would have seen this before I tried to tighten the hex screw! 🤬 😱🤣
me too!!
Right!
Exactly lol
Same!
Me too hahaha
holymoly you deserve all the likes. THANK YOU
Man, this video was super clutch.. I almost stripped out that hex screw myself before watching this vid.
Legend! Had the same issue with the rs3. I had to use some small pliers to hold the bottom screw in place while moving the top clip but it worked! Thanks!!!
please can you make a vidoe i have the same problem
game changer! thanks. And for the base plate latch, you have to unscrew the hex screw, and move the lever the same way you did in the video (except it's not spring loaded) and screw it back!
Thanks alot, such simple thing... I ended up using black tape to add some thickness and resistances, now i can remove it finally!

Thank you so much. You've got no idea how much this helped!

Thank you bro.. I honestly thought my Gimbal was broken when I saw this lol
Daniel thank you so much for the tip!!! For my S3 it was the opposite. It was actually too tight. Now after adjusting it's perfect.
Thanks! You just saved my day! I almost unscrew that rs3pro
Why aren’t all my fixes this easy… thanks for the video!!
You’re welcome fine citizen! 🫡
2 years later and a stripped hex screw you’ve saved me from buying the rs3 pro. 🙏🏾
Dude!!!!!! Thank you so much. This was driving me crazy. Subscribed!
Thank you, I was just on amazon trying to find a screwdriver!!
You Legend! I had no idea it worked like that. I appreciate the help :)
Thank you so much, we already wanted to use a screwdriver :-)) you saved my rs3's life
Wow did not know that. Just did it and my gimbal feels the most secured than it has in months Thanks!
Glad it helped!
hahahahahaha. so freeking simple. i've struggled w this for 6 months. went online to look for a tool. saw this. BOOM! genius. thanks man lol!
God bless you for saving me today 😅
You are a life savior, thank you!!’
This might be more of people not understanding how the gimbal is made rather than a fix. How about the loose battery handle though? Good video!
THANK YOU!
Lol i was literally screwing the hex screw on the top. You saved it.. Man
Thanks! You Just rescued my shoot in the middle of nowhere
🙌🏻
Huge thanks bro! I'm almost got the thinking that my dji is broken
Thank you!🤙🏽 holy shit that was a close call as I was messing with tightening the screw I played this video and saved my ass
Bro you just saved me SO much headache
Thank you! so easy! liked and subscribed!
Duuuude! You’re a legend!! 👊

You’re very welcome random citizen!!!
Life Changing information!!!! Thank you
big thanks from Korea!
Thank you your film was helpfully to me
You are a life saver😊!!!!
Thanks for saving my locking mechanism 😅
Went to a store to get a hex key to tighten the hex screw. In an aisle i thought to myself let's see if there's a video on that. Thank god hah
Is there anyway to fix the little locks on the sliders?
Im sure there is. However I’m fortunate enough to have not if had issues with those yet so I couldn’t tell you.
i'm having the same problem
Dude, life saver.. thank you so much
This really was a life saver... Thanks a lot!!
Tnx bro. Ony one video in TH-cam. Thats your video.
Major tip! Thank you
Hell yes thanks dude I was about to strip the shit out of mine. After locating the worlds smallest star hex of course 😂.Solid advice thanks man
Wow I thought my ronin was broken thank you
Just saved me tons 🤝🏾
Great video! Unfortunatley, mine loosened too much to the point where it popped out! 🙈 Any ideas how to screw it back in? I can't seem to get it to grip with that movement you showed. Appreciate any adivce. Thanks 🙏
You may need to use some very small pliers to hold that inner piece stationary while you do the twist action to get the lever back on.
@@danielporterAZ Thanks so much will give that a try today 🤞😀
did you fix it coz i have same problem Please help me
@samirBeorn I got a mate to help me with the smaller pliers! It took a few goes mind. Thankfully, that worked! 😅
I've tried so many time my dji rs 4 gimbal but its didn't work. how can i fix it. Any other way you know?
Thank you very much Sir for solution
I'm trying to do this - but the problem is when I lift it up and turn it counter-clockwise it DOESN'T disengage from the grooves - so that I can't tighten it - any thoughts?
Had the same issue. Had to hold the grooves down with the tip of my finger and then turn the lever.
@@foryourconsiderationpod yes, thanks I should have commented further - I used a screwdriver to stop the grooves turning - thanks for the tip all the same
Any solution for the Clamp which holds the camera plate? It has a visible hex ring under it but it doesn't lift up enough to do this
Thats a tough one. I looked at mine and you're right. It doesnt have the loaded spring like the others. I'd reach out to DJI and potentially send it in for repair. CHEERS!
This just saved me from stress lvl 001 😂😂😂
thanks man I was looking for a way to solve this problem since 2 months
Bro thank you, youre a king! ✌️🔥
Lol thanks man…just a guy
This solved my problem 👍
OMG ❤thank you so much! I almost sold my ronin 😆
Bro just saved my life
Thanks for the tuto 😅❤
LIFE SAVER!
You saved my gimbal.
Amazing review!!
You saved me bro thank you 🙏🏼
thanks! although its pretty obvious i didnt figure it out on my own 😅
Hi, i have the same issue with the Rsc2. Do you know a solution for this problem? Thanks
I haven’t handled an RSC2 so I couldn’t tell ya ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This doesn't work for me, when I pull up the clamp, all the way up, and turn it, the underside also moves with it???
That’s odd. Are you pulling it up all the way?
@@danielporterAZ Yes, i was. I bought it new the day before and tested it yesterday, because had a filmday today. Turned out it was indeed broken and got a new one, an hour before my shoot😅
what a legend, saved me £220 on a Zhiyun Weebill
Thanks For Watching!
wooooow... game changing
I tried this & its still not tightening. Its actually to loose to shoot at this point. Please advise.
You may need to push down on the inner screw to help it catch the threads again. Just don’t attempt to turn that middle screw. If this fails I’d reach out to dji.
Bro saved me thank you so muchh
BIG thanks it helps me
What can I say, I knew this shit but the vibe I watched to the end happy life bye
Wow thank you so much
Bro thank you so much
Can you tell how to do it for other clamps.
Unfortunately they don’t operate the same way
please help
i have the same problem but mine is out what I've to do please
You’ll have to send that to dji for repair
Me As salvado la vida buen hombre te dejaré un buen Like y me suscribiré de inmediato
Gracias amigo! Saludos!
Life Saver😮
I have a similar issue but with the one that holds the plate those u cannot bring them up i need help
I’d reach out to dji support and even on Twitter or Reddit. They are surprisingly responsive on those platforms.
Thanks Daniel !
thank you so much bro
does this address wobbly footage?
No…
Thanks bro!
