    I used duct tape to eliminate the vibration on my Walkera gimbal.

    LOL. Like everyone else on the planet you should have put the earplugs inside the balls. Effective, elegant and permanent.

    Never thought of that. Are you saying to remove the balls, place the ear plugs inside the balls and then put them back on the gimbal? I don't think they would fit without some cutting. The earplugs are bigger than the rubberized balls. I did however do some more experimenting with the duct tape and found thinner strips with slightly less tension worked even better.

    No. You will insert them the same way that the earplugs' instructions tell you to get them into your ears. Grab one between your fingers and roll it back and forth into a narrow tube. The memory foam will hold that shape for a while while you shove it into the ball, later it will expand again. You can cut off the protruding bell end flush at that time.
