Hi, I have an issue with my Phantom 3 SE.  I crashed it bad enough to bend the Yaw Arm on the camera.  I bought the part and tried the repair.  Now when I power up the drone, the camera "thrashes".  There appears to be no gimbal function and the camera keeps moving up against the stops.

Has anyone dealt with this?
Does anyone know a good repair shop?
Does anyone know a good source for that camera?

Would appreciate it if you could help.

Hello and good day JAC, I am sorry to know that your DJI Phantom 3 SE crashed before. Since this issue is happened. It appears that this issue needs to be diagnosed by our team.

That's a classic wrecked gimbal and they are notoriously difficult to fix regardless of what model AC you have.  Best thing may be to replace the entire camera gimbal assembly.  Unfortunately the SE is not particularly popular so it may be difficult to find one new or used.  Good luck.

Stephen, I went to dji.com/support.  I tried to enter my serial number, and the web form kept defaulting to a serial number that is not mine.
