Does this work for the dji mini se? As I do not see a pcode in the list.

Thank you for your video, for me it gets stuck in the "Info: The Gimbal will slowly move through all positions in all axes," and not responding.. any ideas? Thank you.

When I put in the py setup.py install command, I get an error message. File

not found or something similar. I’ve tried redownloading and tried different versions of py and pyserial 3.5. Any advice?

Hi, this post from other forum helped me with this problem

Here are the steps to fix these issues:
Install setuptools: If setuptools is not installed, you can install it via pip, the Python package installer. Open your Command Prompt and run the following command: Copy this code

python -m pip install setuptools

Make sure that you have pip installed and that it is added to your system's PATH.
Check Python installation: The distutils module should be included with your Python installation. If it's missing, it suggests that there may be an issue with your Python installation. You might need to reinstall Python. Ensure that you download Python from the official Python website and install it, including the "Add Python to PATH" option during installation.

After I download and unzip/install everything, go to the CMD screen as administrator and type cd/ cd dji, everything works until I enter py setup.py install. Then I get this error.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘setup tools’

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘distutils’

What am I doing wrong?

I get the same eror

C:\DJI>py setup.py install

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "C:\DJI\setup.py", line 17, in <module>

from setuptools import setup

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "C:\DJI\setup.py", line 19, in <module>

from distutils.core import setup

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'
