I just noticed that I have only two of the clear plastic anti-drop pins in the four vibration absorbers in my Vision 2+.  I don't know if it has always been this way or if I have managed to lose two of them.  Would you users please check your Vision 2+ and let me know if you have anti-drop pins in all four of the vibration absorbers.

And you should have 2 spares in the "spare parts" zip lock bag. The only way to get them off is to snip them, thereby destroying them. So keep the spare ones handy, or plan to use zip ties or any other method, to keep the gimbal from falling free of the mount. If you notice, without the anti-drop pins it is only those very lightweight anti-vibration cushions holding the gimble on. Not safe at all! haha

You can use strips instead Strips, ultra lightweight and strong

Is there a reason why they only put 2 anti-drop pins in?  Would 4 be better..perhaps more secure? I welcome are response.  Thanks

I did not get any in my package.  So I assumed they only come with the Vision+ and not the Vision ?

After one of my flights I noticed it seemed I had lost two of the anti-drop pins.  I found the spares, placed them in the two empty holes and secured them.  I've been flying with all four ever since.  I guess the extra two don't hurt anything anyways lol!
