Last summer my Q500 4K had a battery failure and fell from about 40 feet as it was descending for a landing. The airframe was destroyed, 2 motors were broken, need to do some rewiring, and get a few small parts for the gimble. Camera works fine. I am having a problem finding Q500 parts online. Everywhere online either doesn’t even list them or show them as discontinued. Starting to wonder if it’s even worth continuing to look for parts or if I should just invest in something new. Any advice would be much appreciated.

My 500+ tried to eat my aluminum extension ladder about 2 yrs. ago. I found an airframe for 60.00. There were plenty at that time. I managed to get throught it,probably had about 30 hours of my time,hard to say as I walked away from it several times.. Hardest part was soldering the esc boards,actually desoldering was hardest. I had all the right stuff, digital iron solder suckers proper tips flux etc. Next time I think I would cut and splice the wires. Gonna be hard to find one right now. Be d illigent there are some. Ask on the forum someone had one a month or so ago. Good luck. Keith C. Q500 is definitely worth the fix. My Favorite allaround Drone to this day.

Q500+ issues with CG02+ Gimbal
Really hope someone can help. I haven't used my drone in a while but powered it on yesterday and everything seemed ok. Didn't take it up just some pre-checks and refreshing the batteries. Today I decided to use the GUI and check and calibrate sensors etc. Problem now is the Gimbal. As described...
