Repair cost for a Gimbal replacement

[KillRbee18]

Can anyone tell me how much they paid a DJI repair shop to replaced their gimbal on their Spark? The camera works great but the gimbal doesn’t move and it slightly cockeyed.

I typed in a Google search and found this: DJI. You might be able to find a 3rd party repair shop close by, but this would give you an idea of costs.

@KillRbee18 We replaced a gimbal in a crashed Spark and used a calibration program. You may just need to calibrate the gimbal. You can find python based tools to do this for you. If you aren't comfortable, maybe you know someone who is and can run the code on their computer for you. Here is a page on this, not the one I used:

DJI Spark Gimbal Calibration - Choice Technology Solutions, LLC

If you find yourself with a tilted or drifting horizon or basically a gimbal that just won't stay level on your DJI Spark this will be your fix.

It could be that you need a gimbal replacement, but this is easy and no harm caused.
