Just the lock

Thank you all, I have just ordered one

Sorry to go off topic here, you mention a "Gimbal Lock" I've heard this a few times, can you tell me where I can get one? Thanks

I've never taken one apart, but it looks like you bent a shaft. It may work now, but I think it will fail sooner rather then later. I don't believe any parts are available for it so you'll probably have to send it back for repair. Just my opinion :D

Well said.

I think the harsh vibrations are cause by the gimbal trying to compensate for vertical shock, which it is not designed to do. Had it been mounted on the "Mountain bike mount" there would have been far less vibration and the gimbal wouldn't have been working so hard. Here is a picture of a...

Wow, what can I say. You have one suspicious nature the TJ. I don't even know how to answer you politely so I'll just let it go! I am not trying to screw DJI out of anything. I am a machinist by trade and just thought I'd ask here. But if this is going to be an indication of the responces...

This is probably a strange request, but I need a couple of NOT WORKING Inspire 1 motors or motor bases. The reason: The warranty on my Inspire 1 will end in a few months and when it does I do not plan to send it back to DJI for repairs I can do myself. Like changing motors when they wear out...

Thanks. I have only ever used props ordered directly from DJI. I think its the adapters myself, but that's just my opinion.

The props came loose on the mounting plates. I could rotate the prop almost 1/4" (measured at the tip) while holding the motor still. I measured the looseness (play) by using a light clamp to positively hold the motor from rotating and used a dial gauge to measure the play at the prop tip...

I agree,

I have tried a number of times now to duplicate this issue you state you have, with no success. There is no way I can start the motors or effect a take off or landing of the craft with the "slave RC". I can bring up the auto take off slider but nothing happens when I use the slide control, it...

I just changed back to the original thread on (self tightening) props with locks from the new QR props because they kept coming loose. I plan to stay with the self tightening props now. I like the redundancy of the locks, and they don't come loose if installed properly. The additional time it...
