DESCRIPTION
In this video, I will take you through the ultimate DJI Mini 3 Pro Gimbal Replacement Guide.
As practice shows, when the drone crash, the gimbal camera is the most vulnerable part of the drone. In this video guide, I'll show you how to replace the gimbal assembly or replace only gimbal housing on the DJI Mini 3 Pro drone.
When a drone crashes, the usually damaged parts of the gimbal are the cable, the rubber holders, or the gimbal housing itself. You can replace the gimbal assembly, or you can replace only the broken part of the gimbal. The gimbal without a camera module is cheaper, so if your camera is still working, you can reinstall it on the new gimbal housing.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced drone enthusiast, this guide will provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to replace the gimbal on your DJI Mini 3 Pro drone.

Gimbal Calibration: th-cam.com/video/mu03HWXplM4/w-d-xo.html
This recommended link does not support the DJi mini 3 pro gimbal calibration.
Not good for mini 3..
why do you make a video about the mini 3 pro.... link to a video stating how to calibrate, but then it does not support mini 3 pro lol ????
I wish I had figured out this link was useless for mini 3 pro before I paid over $300 for the new assembly
Thanks, Do you know when support for DJI Mini 3 Pro Gimbal calibration (wm162) would be added to it?
PERFECT video. Thank you.
Great video. Very helpful. Fixed my camera and up and flying.
Thank you 🎉
Thankyou so much ❤️ love from India
Awesome tutorial! If you're stuck on replacing the rubber gimbal gasket/damper, save yourself some time and READ THIS FIRST!!!!
It's fairly easy to pull the tiny holes in the rubber gasket over the plastic anchor points on the gimbal, but I was stuck on putting the rubber tabs on the outside of the gasket into the the tiny slots in the drone's frame. I struggled for close to an hour, using a variety of tools and tweezers and chewing up the rubber a bit. I guess during initial assembly, these rubber discs have long tapered tabs that are easily pulled through the slots. Once the rubber tabs are firmly seated in the slot (there is a shallow groove that retains it), the excess length is clipped off. This leaves only a small, spongy nub that is nearly impossible to pull through the plastic slot in the airframe with tweezers or push through the slot without tearing it. I finally thought to put a tiny drop of dish soap on the plastic slots to lubricate them and then I was able to stuff the the rubber "tabs" back though (from inside) with a small flathead screwdriver on the first try. Probably going to clean up the residual soap with a cotton swab and isopropyl alcohol, so it doesn't slip back out.
Thank for your suggestion, you saved me from losing my drone, above video should mention how hard it is to put these suckers back in, soup defiantly helped!!!
Oh my god thank you
Thanks for this tip….as this was the only part of the process I was dreading. I saw only how it’s assembled by DJI with the logging tabs that get cut off.
So after you install do you need to remove the message Jimbal erro how do we do it
Great tip, thank you!
Great video. Thank u very much.
Thank you so much that means nothing is impossible
Fantastic video. Nice one.
amazing video its like i was doing it myself. youre like a doctor performing surgery
Very Good
Little tip to add to this video, As some may have seen and experienced, the rubbers are a pain to put back in place, I was able to leave the rubber on the gimble and only replace the gimble, it was easier to put the rubber back on the gimble and leaving them on the drone. It also prevent from damaging any of them by fighting to put it on the gimble.
great, you could have warned me before looking for the video on how to do it.
Ich habe an den Enden der Gummis eine Schnur/ Faden um diese gebunden und mit einen Faden durchgezogen. Ging super schnell und ohne Beschädigungen.
Thank you very much. Very helpful. Can someone help. After crashed my dron MIN3 PRO drone turned on but side lights gone and I can't connect it to apps. I have noticed that motor connectors cracked and do you think this can be a main reason or something with motherboard
Cool! Thanks
what a great video! thank you! but I have a few questions. I flew mine up into a tree and of coarse wrecked, after that the gimble sometimes works. Other times it say's gimble stuck or gimble overloaded. i don't see any damage and don't want to drop $300 if i don't need to. thank you for you advice everyone.
Hi
I need to replace gimbal arm. Do i need to do any calibration after replacing process?
Thank you!!
when you change only the camera do you also have to recalibrate the camera?
i shit my pants a couple times out of sheer fright but i got it! 🙏
Hey, quick question will the damaged shock absorbers cause the dreaded gimbal whine? I'm randomly getting the high pitch noise when the drone sits flat on the ground ?
My brother broke the gimbal arm on the side with the wires, I’ve taken the gimbal out and repaired it with araldite, but I’ve noticed the rotation side that broke doesn’t rotate smoothly it’s very stiff whereas the other side that has the copper rotates very smoothly, my question is that how they should feel or has the crash damaged some sort of bearing on one side
Wait I had crashed my drone but everything works on the gimbal just the camrea wasn’t able to move but everything had work all it needed was just an housing replacement would you need to also recalibrate it
thanks
Outstanding work - thank you so much. If it isn't too far below your pay grade, might you be willing to add a leg replacement guide - including how to refit one that's undamaged but hanging loose? Thank you.
there are white dots on on side motors. are these suppose to point forward? many thanks!
After I install new motor gimbals do I need to do anything else because I just did that and the camera doesn't calibrate very well
My mini 3 pro in active track clipped a branch and dropped about 8ft the gimbal is cracked at the bottom and the plastic casing around the frame popped out a bit. I clipped the plastic frame back together and miraculously from what I can see it seems to still function. I need to test it when weather is ok. The gimbal seems to have full movement what do I need to be looking at when testing it? Do I need recalibrate anything ?
hello friend !
I'm going to need to perform maintenance on my mini 3 pro.
Your video is great, but I had doubts about the calibration of the gimbal.
Mine had a fall and I'll need to replace it with another one. Do you have a video showing how to do it?
My name is Willian and I live in Brazil.
Arrumou william? o meu aparece estabilizador travado.

Thank you so much. Gotta change a gimbal mount shock absorber and this video was so useful!!
YES, wish I had the comments before taking on this project because everything was simple except for the rubber shock absorbers. Mine are completely ruined and will now have to order more and figure out a way to put them in without destroying them. 100% read the comments is my lesson and I am highly disappointed in this tutorial for not warning or even mentioning the issues associated with the these shock absorbers. Looking back, even the guy in this video all but destroys them. Not impressed by "how-fixit" because of this one major oversight on their part. I'm a novice and this was my first attempt to repair a drone like this. Considering they're acting as professionals, they should 100% update this video and address the challenge with the shock absorbers.
Hello 👋, is it possible to run the gimbal camera without the drone for record video 📸📷
Can you do a tear down on how to remove the gimbal motors from the axis? I removed the bad gimbal motors but the connector that clips to the rubber shock absorber won’t come off the broken gimbal motor ☹️☹️☹️☹️
I watched this to see if there was an easy way to push/pull the rubber tips through, they get all messed up doing it this way , its difficult. I prefer to push them through with no gimbal installed, then using tweezers spread open each hole and pull it around each tab, starting with the one with the notch. I'll make a video
Use dental floss tie up the rubber pull it through the holes
@@vandantandel7289 I bought about fifty of the rubber things, new ones come with long tabs that easily push through, these gimbal are easy to rebuild, sections. arms, motors, have had many just a bad cable (no up and down moving) .

Mini 3 pro is availabl for sale ?
super Beschreibung :-)
Is this exactly teh same for a Mini 3?
Thanks!
Thanks for your support !
Welche größe haben die Schrauben für das Gimbal? Ich habe 3 verloren beim auseinander bauen.
Tengo Dji mini 3 normal y en un accidente dejo de funcionar el gimbal pero funciona la cámara.
This parts of gimbal on AliExpress work on mini 3 (not pro)?
hello here ı can fınd gimbal rubber holders ı search but ı cannot see can you help me pls
Great video, I follow you and I replaced C bracket, rubbers, and cable but I think you forgot to put 2 screws which inside the battery area isnt it?
Nope :-) 22:41
The rubber pices on my gimbal ripped that hold the gimbal to drone. Dji says they dont sell that rubber part. Where can I find that rubber mounts?
Ebay and Amazon
Bro look up gimbal rubber dampers thay should sell them on aliexpress
I have sourced 8 pairs of grommets after having issues getting the original rubber grommet back in place.
Actually when I purchased these I bought several pairs expecting to ruin them trying to install them.. turns out from factory these are left long, pulled through and then cut off afterward.
Anyone looking for a replacement set please message me as I can’t return them! 😅
Install is super easy!
I am looking for some if you still have them
Do you still have them? Running into same issue.
Looking for a set if you still have any!
Hey I do not have any more but I can order some on your behalf and mail them if any one still needs them
Hey thanks for responding! All good, I just ended up sending the drone away. Cheers
I replaced my DJI Mini 3 Pro broken Gimbal Yaw Motor. After replacement, though the Gimbal is getting calibrated successfully, it keeps pointing to one side always. Apart from giving Gimbal Motor Overload error (1D010003) occasionally, which goes away automatically in few seconds, it is not showing an other gimbal error. Could someone please guide how we can get this gimbal centred now? It keeps pointing to either extreme left or right always even after successful Gimbal, IMU & Compass Calibrations. Please guide.
I crashed my drone two days ago and now my video footage is choppy, almost like it’s glitching. Any idea what it could be?
I did all this, but now my controller days “gimbal stuck” any tips?
Thanks iam ti México where i Buy the Robbins house
cual es el codigo del cardan del mini 3 pro??
This must be and older model DJI Mini 3 Pro than mine as you have two screws i do not have.
@howfixit Hi do u have to put the gimbal a certin way because the swivel sides dont rotate all the way. The swivel parts on the gimbal stop different from both sides where the ruber parts go
Did you ever figure this out? Cause i just installed mine and maybe its off a little and doesnt go up.
@dredlew I ended up doing it a while back and it worked great. Make sure u align both sides and put the rubbers in slots but not all the way and turn on drone so it aligns gimble scroll Camara up and down and if it goes good without binding it should be good.
I had to go a little further and replace the gimble bracket because mine broke. After going through this the hardest part was the rubber retainers. After messing with them for 2 hours It became obvious that they did not want us to fix these things ourselves. I even tried tying a string around the rubber tab to pull it through and it cut through part of it. They've made it very difficult to re-use the old rubber retainers because there was a thin tab you would feed through and trim off later. Unless you have those you cant feed them through without damaging them. My solution is to drill a 7/64ths or 2.7mm hole through each slot to pull the rubber through. This way you dont damage them and its enough to hold them in place
An adhesive that connects the rubber tabs to a longer string/strip could also work. After you have the string connected to the tabs, pull the tab through by the string, and then clip off the excess string? I have not tried it, but I think I would prefer it over loosening the holes themselves. I would be scared the tab would slip through again with minor stress.
@@nate6889 i looped a string on the end and it cut through most of the rubber on two tabs.
I also had to replace the rubber retainers after struggling I just ordered new ones on Amazon and overnight them they can with the longer tabs, took me 5 min less than 30$ us
@@Jarebear92 definitely a good Idea, I didnt know how bad it was until I got in there. I'll probably have to replace those in a couple months
PLEASE HELP! at 8:30 in the video you can see plastic tabs that are on the back of the pitch motor where the rubber grommet attaches on the gimble side. does anyone know where to get replacements? it looks like a plastic cap that fits over the pitch motor. does this come with the motor when you buy it? the listings i've seen do not show these tabs being included.
Got mine on AliExpress but it need an authorized calibration with DJI repair software
Today I opened the drone and found the broken gimbal
and the broken arm
I bought spare parts on Aliexpress
now to wait.
I think is Bad motor center eje.
Valeu!
Thanks for your support !

My gimbal is stuck and it's not calibrating.pls can I get solution for it.shud i change total gimbal replacement..where shud I get it
Should
my rubber holding the gimbal was torn, which shows the message that the gimbal is stuck. there are three slots the rubber holds onto the frame. if u crashed ur drone, most likely one of them 3 are broken. change the rubber. aliexpress has them
I did changr and everything but have one major problem when i connact the gimbal to motherboard and turn on the gimbal isnt active
How did you fix it?
Mavic 3 and Mini 3 Pro can't be calibrated by python. Does anyone know how to calibrate?
Did you ever find the solution?
Any update on this? Were you able to find a solution?
@@stefanhearn430 my solution has been to remove the yaw motor from the top arm via excessive heat, and adjust its alignment until it’s proper
@ me if there's an update
Any idea where to get just the rubber holders?
DJI wouldn't send the rubber holders to me to fix mine myself. They made me send them my drone through DJI Refresh for $65 and replaced the drone instead of dropping a few in the mail. They said the rubber holders weren't "an available part for purchase".
@@cheritrick thanks for the reply man, I crashed mine a couple weeks ago and realised with this video that really all I needed were those rubber holders. I will send them the drone then...
Same here. I crashes my drone and the left side of the gimbal was dettached from the rubber holder. I managed however to put it back on by using twizers but only I was only able to connect 2 holes. There are a total pf 3 holes. I calibrated the gimbal and somehow it was successful. I was able to shoot today. But i will still send iy for repair since the gimbal on the left and right is not level due to the dettachment from the rubber holder
@@deejay1571 yeah, my rubber holder has actually ripoed off around one of the holes, so I coudn't reconnect it properly
@@fredericoalves811 does your mini 3 pro have dents after crash?
Great. One little problem though. The silicon holder is impossible to put back without destroying it.
Spent hours on this and I have no idea how. My tweezers look almost identical to his too
15 mins later, I was about to give up but just happened to order a sowing kit. I used the non sharp side of the sowing needles to put the end in and then leave it, then another one to keep pushing them in.
Taking them out was pulling the whole thing back so I just left them in instead.
Much easier now. 1 down, 2 to go.

What is name of rubber in this gimbal
just search for 'mini3 pro gimbal rubber
The mini 3 Pro gimbal looks more likely to get damaged in a crash, than on other drones.
Yup delicate, cracks on both sides, or just stops working , could be cable?
@@dronesetc9769 Suite à un choc, la nacelle est bloquée également pour ma part. Je pense changer le câble
Happened to me today 😭
This is teardown only not repair...
The video says Mini 3.
This a little misleading as it is not and install for the DJI Mini 3 Pro Gimbal Replacement. it is simular.
Please, don’t follow this tutorial! You end up spending money for nothing. Since the ‘new’ gimbal does have another serialnumber, there is NO WAY to calibrate the gimbal. You will end up having a gimbal hanging in a corner, not responding to your input.
Not only the gimbal and camera, even the front sensors can’t be renewed. Same problem, another serialnumber. DJI becomes another Apple, anything to prevent that you repair your drone yourself 😖
I do it
@@felipeporai Please share your experience when your done. I hope I’m wrong…
@@Minicopters isnt a code bro.. Its a dji software … I work with drone repair in Brasil
The opening dialogue and the parts dialogue said that this was for the Mavick. Snake rattle music wore on my nerves had to stop watching the video
