Is it necessary to put the gimbal guard on after each flight?? I put it on after I'm done flying around outside the house every time.i only ask bc that thing is a pain in the *** to put on
Have the same here, like it much better.It's a pain in the butt full stop. I've ordered a pair of those Neewer, all in one, gimbal guard/lens protectors.
Neewer - NEEWER PROTECTIVE LENS COVER AND LENS HOOD FOR DJI PHANTOM 3 BLACK
I find that being clear perspex, I often forget it's there and fire up with it still on. Can't do the gimbal much good.
The Neewer ones look much easier to fit and you don't have to fuss with the original, separate lens cover. (That's also hard to remove).
I hate the one that came with my p3s and all the other alternatives seem to be for the advance or pro with the bigger control board box above the camera
Lol, same for me[emoji12]The Neewer ones are much easier to deal with, the original one caused a lot of stress on the gimbal and on me.
Possibly more for shipping than anything else?Anyone ever wonder how and why they over-engineered that insanely complicated piece of clear plastic in the first place?! There had to be a reason they decided on THAT.
Agreed, great for shipping because the way boxes can be thrown around, not so great for everyday use in my opinion.Possibly more for shipping than anything else?
Disagree, a lot of posts on I got my Phantom, etc. The gimbal guard was not attached.Agreed, great for shipping because the way boxes can be thrown around, not so great for everyday use in my opinion.

P3S shipped with gimbal clamp loose

Ok, I changed my mind, you may be correct. I got a P3A yesterday, Gimbal Clamp on the camera, but not on the Gimbal, DJI shipping just doesn't know how to put them on correctly.Agreed, great for shipping because the way boxes can be thrown around, not so great for everyday use in my opinion.
