    CGO 3 Replacement Pitch Magnet

    Thank you for the reply. My magnet has turned to dust. CGO 3 lives in Florida most it's life. I have replaced these magnets in the past and I have found a way to get around the calibration process. It does take time but the end result is achieved weeks sooner than sending it in.

    CGO 3+ Loud Beep (Long) Erratic Gimbal Spin, Limp Camera

    Finished with the inspection and found no bare wires of faulty connections. I did find that the roll magnet was covered with iron ore and the surrounding frame was covered with sand. Also found iron ore very close to the roll motor, covering the copper wires that extend out from the resistor...
