Remember when you remove the camera protector (glass bubble) there is also a gimbal clamp (clear plastic) that you need to remove before powering up the drone. The clamp sits behind the camera and to remove it you slide it out. This clamp  holds the camera in position whilst you transport your drone. It's easy to remove and easy to replace when you have finished flying.

Can anyone advise on putting back on the Gimbal clamp? I can't quite figure out how to do it correctly and I don't like poking around at the gimbal, I feel like I may damage something. Thank you

Add a piece of red ribbon to the clamp because you will forget to remove it.
