After wrestling with the flex cable for about 20 minutes I was able to reassemble the gimbal and mount it. After a few very terrifying starts I was able to find information on how to properly calibrate the gimbal. The results is what you see here a very smooth and clear video stream and a gimbal that moves very smooth as well. All that needs to be done now is to get the screws to mount the back yaw arm cover and find the yaw arm cable guard to cover the upper yaw arm cable as it comes down the back of the arm into the ESC board.
