Gimbal works great, I purchased it when I thought I couldn't get mine fixed. Has been loaded with the latest firmware and it does have some nicks and scratches. This is a great upgrade for a P3 Advanced. $225 plus shipping This video was taken with the camera.

Thank you! That is very helpful.

Well my thought is that since that is right near the yaw arm shaft it was probably a piece of plastic or something that came down and cracked the part off the board. If I can figure out what it was I can just resolder it and see if that helps the issue at all.

Hmm, I wish there was a bit more diagnostic data on these birds. I'll keep digging.

Thanks for the suggestion, pulled the top cover off this morning and re-seated and inspected all the connectors. I pulled the back off of the camera and re-seated that along with the primary ribbon connection. next to the yaw arm. Now one thing I noticed is that after I press the shutter button...

Hello, everyone! So I purchased a lightly crashed P3A, the seller claimed that the bird fell from 10ft and broke the yaw arm. I went over everything and there was no damage done to the body but the yaw arm had snapped along with the ribbon cable. I inspected all the gimbal PCBs for damage...
