Camera protection.

To avoid costly damages on the camera especially on the gimbal mainboard, take some time and install a zip tie as in the picture below. That it will give some resistance at the impact in case of a crash and the wires will be ripped from the top mount (3 pins) contact board, not from the gimbal board which is more expensive than $1.99 for a replacement of the contact board.

Thanks for you recommendation! Best regards

The CGO3+ comes standard with two plastic pins and c clips that are fitted in a diagonal fashion. This helps somewhat in case of a crash because the slip ring wiring is so fragile. For whatever reason, the CGO3 camera does not contain the pins/clips. If you can find some for sale, it will add even more protection in addition to the cable tie modification. The wire which controls the tilt on the camera is notorious for breaking loose. The earlier models used a small, 3 pin power cable. Why they added the gimbal wiring and gimbal connection plate on the drone is beyond me.
