My brandnew Mavic Pro crashed due to my ignorance.
The aircraft still works fine, but gimbal behavior is wierd -- please watch the recording here:
https://youtu.be/Ej3Ljb7546c

What I did so far:
- Gimbal calibration with DJI Assistant 2: result OK.
- IMU calibration
- Compass calibration
- Firmware refresh.
- Checked that vibration absorbing board is mounted to all three hooks.

Nothing helped. Probably there is real hardware damage,
Is somebody out there recognizing the symptoms and able to tell me where to look / what to try?

Thank in advance.
Herman -- just a beginner,

Wow, that reminds me what it use to be like after a night of drinking. Is the gimbal properly seated? If not, I think it's time to send your drone in :-(

It might be one or more of the small "rubber band" that keeps gimball in place so it does not rests on the drone frame (the three guides) there is broken.
