For the record, I chatted with DJI and she had me do an IMU calibration immediately followed by the gimbal auto calibration. It's probably 90% better than it was.
The X3 should not be making any strange ( harsh ) sounds , there is a small fan in there, ( on back of the camera ) see if that has maybe a small piece of lint on it or something . Try and and tilt the camera, you can do this via the top RC left top gimbal wheel , see if the sound gets any worse, then go to the RC settings and change the gimbal wheel to pan ( this will be in the C1 -C2 settings on the back of the RC ). This will tell you if it is a gimbal motor problem or something else .
Also when you start the system and the camera does the dance , how does it sound ? It really should make very quiet noises and you will hear the fan running, but you should not hear any buzzing. Make sure all of the packing tape and foam is not stuck in the camera gimbal anywhere ( doubt it but it has happened)
Be sure to inspect that fan for a foreign body , I have definitley heard of this causing problems.
If you have time you could make a video and post . If the grinding does continues send it back , it will only get worse.
good luck
