A couple of weeks ago, I crashed my Mavic Mini after one of the propellers flew off mid-flight.

The two cables that run to the gimbal and camera were damaged and I've replaced them.  Also, one of the shock absorbers was damaged, so I replaced that as well.

Now, however, when I power-up the Mavic Mini, the gimbal goes through its normal self-test routine and then immediately starts to shake wildly.  I've embedded a video of it in action.



I've opened up the Mavic Mini twice to double-check that all the connectors are tightly in-place, with no improvement.

Also, I found a thread with a similar problem that suggested powering the Mini while holding it 12 inches above a surface, which I've tried without success.

Can anyone give me a hint as to what to try next?  Do I need a new gimbal?
