Busted gimble P3A

[Aubrey Jacobs (swan)]

Hi guys,

I crashed my P3A and broke my gimble. Can I replace the gimble and camera with a 4k camera and gimble and can you send a part number please?

Help will be highly appreciated.

No, you most definitely can't and it's good that you asked here first! Please do NOT attempt this.....

See here:- P3 Camera Gimbal and here:- PSA: Do NOT put a P34K camera/gimbal on a P3P The same applies for a P3A.

There's a few other threads about this if you do a search here.

However, if you mean a 4K camera from a P3 Pro, then that is possible and you may have to do some firmware updating. I believe that this camera is Part No. 5.

Hi Steve7777

Sorry, yes I meant P3Pro 4k camera gimble onto a P3Adv.

Phew!

It should be a fairly easy operation. You might find this thread of interest. P3-Pro 4K Camera Installed on P3-A

Don't forget you'll need to update the firmware on the P3 if you change the camera, as it effectively becomes a P3 Pro.

Thank you guys.

One last question. From who can I buy the P3Pro 4k gimble camera online and courier to South Africa at a good price?

How badly is the camera damaged? if you only broke the yaw arm and ribbon cable, these can be replaced..a lot cheaper way to go than buying a brand new camera.

How about you try Googling it, which, unless anyone actually knows the exact answer to your questions is what, I presume, anyone else would use....

Googled my problem and it seem I can buy the yaw arm and flat ribbon separately which will cost a fraction of a new gimble.

Anybody got recommendations from who I can buy it from and will these 3rd party parts work, because DJI dont stock these parts.
