I am a proud P226 owner and really love this gun. I've had two or three over the years. Hopefully y’all can give me a hand figuring out a little dilemma.

My gun is a basic 226 Nitron that I upgraded to Xray3 sights, a solid stainless guide rod, and Hogue checkered grips. I would like to get an optics ready slide, add a RomeoX Pro sight and a Streamlight or SureFire light. Here is where it gets tricky – it needs to fit in a Safariland holster with level 1 ALS retention or another holster brand with similar retention that can be fitted to the Safariland low-ride belt loop.

I don't think Safariland makes a holster for the P226 with optics and/or light of any kind. I don't want to chose between optics or light. It's all or nothing. I already have a Safariland holster for the bare gun and attachments for tactical battle belt, for tactical plate carrier or chest rig, and for basic duty belt. So the idea is to be able to get a new slide with optics cutout, optics, and light to upgrade the gun.

Any recommendations?

I have a Mini 5 Pro in the USA that I whacked into my house when moving sideways. The left front arm detached, which I fixed DIY with arm pivot/axis part. However, DJI Fly on RC2 controller says "Gimbal Stuck." When I power on, the camera rotates repeatedly, then rotates back and stops. It does not swivel or tilt during that process, but can easily be moved manually to rotate, pivot, and tilt when powered off. After it stops rotating or spinning, it is left in a random orientation on all 3 axises, and the tilt and rotate functions don't work. But the drone does fly and flight controls work fine, but I have no camera control.

I sent to DroneNerds for inspection and repair and got this reply:

Hello [Customer],

Your camera/gimbal is giving a gimble stuck
error and is not completing calibrations. Unfortunately, DJI does not provide
us the parts or support to conduct repairs on this part of the drone. We do not
believe that DJI are taking this drone for repair right now in the U.S either.
At the moment we can discuss options for purchasing a new drone or we can send
the drone back to you.

Thank you,
Damian

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle this? If not, given the shortage of Mini 5 Pro parts and lack of DJI support in the US, do you think it has any value to sell to be cannibalized for parts?
