Hey guys, my phantom 3 standard reciently broke and i need some help to know what is wrong with it so i can (hopefully) fix it!
So the thing is that I accidentally started flying the drone inverted in a closed space so in order not to hit it against a wall I landed it, but I landed it really hard.
Something must’ve broken in the gimbal, that is for sure.
Engines and IMU are fine i think
So the main problem is the horizontal stability in the gimbal. Whenever I turn the drone on, I get perfect feed and signal on my phone, I can see everyting and i detect no major problem.
However, when I turn the drone on, the gimbal keeps going from side to side. I dont feel like flying it cause I am afraid the drone can go disoriented somehow.
I searched and searched on the internet and the only posible cause I could find was the potenciometer on the roll motor, but I tested it and the amp looked fine. (I might have done it wrong)
If anyone has any idea of what broke and what to change, that would be great, because i dont feel like changing the whole camera (which is really expensive).
Also, I can check whatever you suspect can be broken.
My gut tells me it’s something related with the roll motor but again, i know nothing.
Thanks a lot guys!
PS: I attach a pic of the potentiometer I checked and a vid of the issue
