Greetings fellow droners! I'm very new to this but I have a problem that needs solving.
I've had a P3 drone for about 3 years and it's been working great. Recently a warning popped up saying GIMBLE MOTOR OVERLOAD, I did a quick google and found several videos telling you how to fix this. It took about a month but I finally managed to get this warning fixed. Only recently when I went to get an overhead picture of my area, I noticed that I couldn't get the gimble to move up and down. I tried HEAPS of YouTube videos but I couldn't get it to work. For the three years I've had it only once have I landed it a bit hard, but when I did I took it home and thoroughly checked it for any cracked parts or ripped cables but everything looked A-OK. I'm guilty to say that I have flown the drone in some dust areas so some dust particles may have wedged their way in somewhere. I've tried hundreds of times to get over it but I love taking photos and videos with this drone. I'm half thinking of just getting it repaired at a drone shop but I don't want to spend a lot of money. Anyone have advice?
High five, thumbs up, or whatever the young people are doing these days
