Hi Wanda,

1. Calibrate the gimbal. I have done this several times how ever i cannot do it while gimbal is disconnected.
2. Check whether the lower vibration absorbing board is inside the anti-drop hook. it is if you are talking about the little hook-style thing right above the gimbal it is inside.
3. Record a video of the issue for us. I have several
4. Tell us the Aircraft’s and remote controller’s firmware version, app version both controller and aircraft have the latest firmware available by DJI assistant

Hello Wanda the last thing I need is to be charged to repair an old drone as much as the drone itself cost now days.

Hello Wanda,

I need a quote in order to asses if it’s worth it or not
I can’t send a now $400 drone to get a $300-500 repair.

This issue used to go away before after I would downgrade and then upgrade the firmware now that method is not working anymore.

Hello, could you attach a picture with the error message here. I remember that my Mavic Pro set also an error message in the past. something with gimbal not connected. APP Works normal. On my side the USB Kabel between Remote and phone was defect.

I also believe the "no simm card" is not the real issue and sends you down the wrong path looking for simm card(s) that work and/or a firmware issue.  Without the card, all the camera settings should still work like it does in my other dji drones.   Plus i had a gimbal disconnected error in dji go 4.  I purchased a used main board on ebay and replaced it.  Drone is as good as new.  Board is pretty easy to replace too.
