Using a translation app it appears this part won't work for a Phantom 4 Pro/Advanced, only for the standard version. I too have the same issue, and DJI asked me to send the unit back (which is too troublesome, so I didn't). I just covered it temporarily with adhesive tape, and hope it will...
Hi @J Dot
Yeah, I can move it up and down (with no resistance), and I can see the vertical pitch indicator on the DJI Go app moving though a bit jerky... I think it does offer resistance on all the three axis, from what I can feel, though the roll is not as noticeable because the camera is...
I've reassembled the gimbal but it's not working properly. Before I take it apart once again, I'd be thankful if you could help me out figuring if there's something common in its behaviour, that might give a hint on what may be wrong, specifically. I'm posting a video below:
So the issue are...
Just a small update, I've got the new arm and it the motor fits perfectly, though it has to be glued in place. I'm still waiting for the black ribbon replacement to finish this but I'll come back to see if went ok.
Yeah, as I was expecting, it didn't work out, I ended up causing some damage to the arm itself so I'm getting a replacement.
In any case, in hindsight, I think that my biggest obstacle was that I couldn't remove just the inner part of the old motor out and apply just the inner part of the new...
Thanks for the input!
I'm thinking of trying of making a combination of twisting it and heating it up. I'm using the holes I drilled to pass through a bolt and fix on the other end with a nut, and this way rigidly stop any movement of the motor cap and gently pound the roll arm itself to see if...
Still nothing, but I'm pretty sure the motor cap is glued with epoxy to the outer ring, which makes it much harder to do anything. Oh well, if it doesn't work, I'll have to get a new arm replacement, it's not that dramatic.
Just a progress update on this, which is basically not much progress. The motor itself wouldn't want to get out so I had to shred it to pieces. I've made some holes on the cap and now pondering to try your heating suggestion.
Hi @J Dot , thanks for your input, I'll see what I can do and get back with more info. The guys from the part store confirmed that this does fit the P3 A/P, so hopefully it is compatible.
Cheers
Hi,
Could anyone give me some tips on how to remove the roll motor from the ring, considering the arm is apparently ok but the motor's ribbon is cut? I already have a replacement motor, but I can't find a way of pulling the existing motor out from the ring, even if it means tearing it apart...
