Gimbal set screw replacement

[Phantom fool]

Hi,

Was flying my Phantom 3 pro and had a crash. Afterward the gimbal would make a grinding noise, so my searches brought me here. It seemed related to the gimbal set screw, so I went to Lowes and bought an allen key set that had a 1.5mm allen key. I adjusted the gimbal arm up a hair and the grinding noise stopped. Then the camera was off center, so I loosened the set screw, adjusted the angle, and tightened. then the noise was back. So, I went through 10-12 iterations of this before I got it right.

The problem is, After all this I have almost completely stripped the head of the tiny little set screw. I can probably loosen it maybe one more time, but want to replace it. Where can I get one?

Thanks in advance for your help

That's the info I needed

Am I the first guy to do this to that little tiny soft screw?

Ha! Usually my credo, but I know it's going to happen again
