Just One thing missing other than that....Perfect

I got what I paid for. I installed it and Shezam….back in action. BUT...it does not come with the needed (Qty 4) mounting screws. The Mavic has 6 different type (for plastic or metal), head type (hex or Phillips) and different length screws. And, no matter how careful you are in separating them upon disassembly....you are never sure you got the right screw for the job. Look folks, you are charging a lot of money for the Gimbal/camera assembly, 4 correct screws probably cost about 15 cents. Do your customer a favor and ADD the screws since we know that DJI does not send anything but the gimbal assy in its package. and for those of you making this expensive fix.....keep real close track of where every screw came from in the required body top and cable disassembly. I gave this a 4 because of the above issue.....otherwise a total 5

Real replacement part. Don't be intimidated with do-it-yourself repair.

UPDATE: The gimbal has gone crazy (I thought the drone was falling out of the sky for sec) twice. It happens during flight, flipping back and forth. I do a gimbal auto-calibrate and then it's fine. It has only happened twice. I'm keeping my 5-star review up though, because I'm not entirely convinced that the camera is at fault. Mavics are incredibly buggy to begin (just bought a Phantom 4 Pro that came with a bad charger), always needing to adjust this or that, update firmware, or whatever. It appears to be a genuine DJI part anyway. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I half-expected this to be some cheap knock-off, but by all appearances it's genuine DJI. It comes in a package with the DJI logo and also little DJI stickers on the camera itself. There is an awesome how-to video on youtube (you'll find it) and though it was intimidating to start unscrewing things and disconnecting connectors, it really wasn't that bad. It probably took me about 20 minutes and I was really careful and thorough. I just took it out for the maiden flight and camera operates fine. I'll update if it starts having problems or if the quality is lower, but all-in-all, I'm glad that I tackled this project instead of sending it in to DJI. Plus, now I feel confident enough in further repairs, which makes me have a little more fun with the drone, knowing that I could probably fix most things.

So this tree jumped out in front of my Mavic....

but she's as good as new now thanks to this replacement camera & gimbal. I have constant hand tremors, which is super-inconvenient for someone who spends a lot of time tinkering with quads (racing and Whoops primarily). The camera, ribbon, everything was a pretty simple install (not as fast as the outstall by the tree though). If I can install this without incident, nearly anyone can.

Pricy, but it just works!

I had trouble spending this much coin on this, but if you scour the web you will see that people who replace their ribbon cables and/or video cables it seems to be a crap shoot wether or not you will get a working gimbal, plus they are a PITA to change. Seems like half the people had failure when they changed their own. Plus there is a bunch of knock off junk out there so you will never know if it was the part or your installation. I bought this with the mindset that since its prime ill just send it back if it didn't work, but it did work and it took only 5 minutes to swap out. All this did was teach me to be more careful where I fly my drone, and watch for those wizard of oz trees that grab my drone when I get too close. Oh, it came in a static bag that said genuine DJI parts! At least the lube was a name brand :)

Fine replacement gimbal and camera for a Mavic Pro or Platinum

I appreciate the seller stocking this genuine DJI gimbal and camera and getting it to me quickly. Replacing the whole gimbal assembly is one of the easier repairs to make on a Mavic Pro or Platinum, if you've got the right part, and this is the right part. It does require removing the top shell, removing a few screws, and the connectors are some of the smallest I've seen, but they do snick right into place with the right part if I'm very careful and work under a magnifier. Thankfully, it doesn't require soldering.

Perfect replacment

Mavic malfunctioned and crashed into a building and broke the gimbal. This replacement works great. You might be able to save some money and try the gimbal cable first but I found it more challenging to replace than I desired.

It is an original not aftermarket

Love it it is an original product so no problem when I put it on. Wasted extra money fixing my old one and no luck. Put this one on and my drone works just like new.

Fairly easy to replace with patience and care

Very expensive product. But cheaper than buying a new Mavic, right? I was watching a Youtube video of how to install it, and it worked great!! I couldnt paste a link so just simply search on Youtube "How to install Mavic Pro gimbal", view it patiently. Do it carefully and make sure your hands are clean and dry. Short and to the point. Really wasnt a big deal. But be very careful with the cable! And order the right tool kit. I got mine for about 14$ Good luck!!
