DJI Mavic Pro gimbal/camera mounting screws screw size

M2 · 3 mm long

The screws used on DJI Mavic Pro gimbal/camera mounting screws are M2, 3 mm long.

Where it is used: iFixit repair guide for gimbal/camera replacement documents multiple small screw sizes; DJI Mavic Pro gimbal frame screws are commonly specified in third-party screw kits as M1.4/M2 metric fasteners for the yaw/roll/pitch arms.

This entry is marked likely and comes from ifixit.com.

For reference, M2 is 2 mm across the threads at 0.4 mm pitch. The imperial size people confuse it with: #2-56 UNC (2.18 mm) is close but not interchangeable.

How to check the screw before you buy

  1. Camera and optics hardware often uses short screws into thin threaded plates, so check engagement before tightening fully.
  2. Diameter: across the threads an M2 screw measures about 2 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
  3. Pitch: 0.4 mm from one thread crest to the next (25 crests per centimetre). A thread pitch gauge or the pitch-gauge tool settles it in seconds.
  4. Length: measure from under the head to the tip for pan, button, wafer and cap heads; countersunk (flat) heads are measured overall.
  5. The record states 3 mm. Going longer risks bottoming out or touching parts behind the hole; going shorter loses thread engagement.
  6. Driver: the source does not name the drive. Standard M2 heads take PH0 for Phillips and T6 for Torx, and a 1.5 mm hex key for socket heads; a bit that fits loosely will cam out and strip the head.
  7. Tightening: no device-specific torque is published in these records. The site's general figure for M2 is about 25-40 N·cm into metal threads and 12-20 N·cm into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.

Common mix-ups with M2

  • 'M2x3 T5' is commonly conflated with the Torx bit size (T5) — the T5 refers to the drive, M2x3 is the actual metric thread and length.
  • M.2 SSD mounting screws (M2 x 3mm) are frequently mislabeled generically as 'M.2 screws' which can be confused with the M2 metric thread designation — they do coincide numerically here but are conceptually distinct (M.2 = card format, M2 = thread size).

Questions about DJI Mavic Pro gimbal/camera mounting screws screws

What size screw does DJI Mavic Pro gimbal/camera mounting screws use?
M2 × 3 mm for iFixit repair guide for gimbal/camera replacement documents multiple small screw sizes; DJI Mavic Pro gimbal frame screws are commonly specified in third-party screw kits as M1.4/M2 metric fasteners for the yaw/roll/pitch arms.
How long are the screws in DJI Mavic Pro gimbal/camera mounting screws?
The record gives 3 mm. Measure the original from under the head (overall for a countersunk head) to confirm before ordering.
What is the thread pitch of an M2 screw?
0.4 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M2 machine screws; a 0.25 mm fine pitch exists but is uncommon. The tap drill is 1.6 mm and the normal clearance hole is 2.4 mm.
What screwdriver do I need for DJI Mavic Pro gimbal/camera mounting screws?
The sources do not name the drive. For M2, Phillips heads normally take PH0 and Torx heads T6; socket heads take a 1.5 mm hex key.
Can I use an imperial screw instead of M2?
No. Imperial look-alike: #2-56 UNC (2.18 mm) is close but not interchangeable. Use a true M2 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
Where can I buy replacement screws for DJI Mavic Pro gimbal/camera mounting screws?
TechSpareWarehouse (our own store) lists M2 x 3mm, which matches the length in the records above.
