Hi, this knocking is not happening with mine. If calibrating is not solving the problem, did you complete te calibration or did it stop at a certain percentage?
What happens if you fly, how does your video look?

Sorry to say that the gimbal calibration aligns the sensor to the horizon - this is not something that an auto gimbal cal. will sort out. The movement of the gimbal in your video is not normal and there appears to be a significant malfunction with the gimbal on start up. I would suggest taking it back and getting an immediate replacement in store or a full refund and buy it again.

Hi sir, how about the performance after the self-checking finished? It is the gimbal coaxial cable resistance tolerance that makes this sound, but if the gimbal is working properly after self-checking, then no worries. But if the gimbal status is not normal after that, please send it back for an overall check. Contact support.nl@dji.com for a further help. Thanks.

I have similar problem with the start up. Then when I flew to take videos I was experiencing gimbal shakes quite harsh. Please look at my video. I have spoken to couple of friends and they told me it could be because I was flying in a very high wind conditions previously. It might over worked the gimbal ? I got bo warning until today. Before I fly the warning says “gimbal overload” then it dissapears. So I flew and took some shots. Halfway the gimbal stuck, it rolls back and stays there. I switched it off and try to move the gimbal gently. It moves smoothly tilting down but when I tilt it up it stuck. My friend said I might need to replace the ribbon or the gimbal
