Hi guys

I have a mini two, after a light fall the plastic gimbal holder broke in two, I glued it together after taking it all apart, drone works fine.

Gimbal however is stuck, camera works, when it starts it does the up/down sides calibration, but no matter what I do I just can't get controls to work for the gimbal, it won't respond.
I get the 40002 gimbal stuck error, I'm thinking it might be the ribbon cable as it doesn't look in the best shape.

What do you guys suggest this could be?
I really didn't want to spend 300 euro's for a new gimbal when this gimbal works perfectly fine except for the rotation which I hope and presume will be the cables?

Could anyone maybe tell me which cable is responsible for the controls? I'd check it out.

Hello there Kimuri. I am sorry for the trouble this has caused and thank you for reaching out. Kindly please check if there are debris or a part is stuck in the gimbal. ( For example, the said DJI drone was powered on when it was folded, or the gimbal protector is not removed. ) Please remove the debris or part that is stuck in the gimbal, restart the aircraft, and then recalibrate the gimbal. If the issue persists, then please contact our DJI support team at http://www.dji.com/support to open a case and send back the said DJI Drone for further diagnosis. Thank you.

I bought a mini 2 cheaply on ebay and it arrived with this undisclosed issue.  I was able to fix mine with compressed air inside gimbal joints (move joints to get inside) , spraying Wd-40 into gimbal joints(not too much) , spray air again to remove excess oil, and then flinging the thumping camera right and left (think this is called teasing the camera)
