Hey all - just got my P3P back from warranty repair for a cracked shell, and it makes a funny sound when I move it around. Seems to be coming from the gimbal board area. Here's a brief video:

It sounds a bit like a piece of metal is loose and is moving around - really not sure how else to put it.
I re-paired it with the RC and didn't get any warnings, so I did a 5-minute test flight, which seemed to go just fine. Only thing that happened is as I was climbing way from the house I got a "motor overloaded" warning, which I don't think I've ever gotten before. The bird I usually use is still on 1.7.6, and this bird, which I only got recently and have mostly done low-and-slow video work with, is on the latest firmware - perhaps newer firmware has been tweaked to be a bit more sensitive? I was climbing and moving forward, both at full throttle when it happened; I've done this hundreds of times with the 1.7.6 bird and never gotten a warning.
Many thanks, DJI - will be grateful to hear what you think about the noise. These are absolutely amazing machines and even though I've had to send them back three times due to cracks, I still can't say enough about them. Thank you all for all the continued R&D you do to create these things and can't wait to see what you all come up with in the future.
