I was just wondering how many have done something like this to protect their gimbal cables? I'm thinking of doing it.
I haven't done that but I'm a huge fan of the killerrc.com gimbal guard, $48. It saved my butt in a crash.[/QUOTEport
Yeah, I already have the killer rc gimbal guard. I installed that last week but it doesn't cover where that flat ribbon cable comes out on the side and also on the bottom. Which is what he's covering in the video in the first post.
Wait, what? Mal, is that really you? where have you been hiding?I've fixed a few phantom gimbals that have different types of gimbal guards on them. The only way to save your camera is not to crash. Nothing can guarantee your yaw arm or ribbon cable wont snap unfortunately
Haha it sure is mate. Been in hibernation, just came back last night to ruffle a few feathersWait, what? Mal, is that really you? where have you been hiding?
I agree the potted metal the DJI uses for these new gimbals is ridiculously week even if you have a gimbal guard on there the arm is going to break off in the slightest crashI've fixed a few phantom gimbals that have different types of gimbal guards on them.
