PLEASE HELP DJI. I am experiencing gimbal wobble effect and I have never crashed my P4P. I have the latest firmware, I have new props, use NDs, calibrated the IMU, calibrated the gimbal too. It’s so frustrating. It seems to be worse in stronger breezes. And the drone itself seems to be unable to stay still like it used too. I’m trying to run a professional aerial video business and I just can’t hand footage over to the client with this slight wobble to it. There’s things I can do in post to try and fix but it’s just papering over the cracks here DJI. My P4P is not even a year old and is well looked after and maintained. Please please help.
The slight wobble looks to be throughout the video. Put your P4Pro on a flat surface and take some video and see if the wobble is still there. If it is then I would check the balance of the props. Also check and make sure you don't have a loose motor or loose prop fitting.

Thanks for the advice. I have taken off the props and sat the drone on a flat surface. The wobble is still there. I'm thinking from what I have read in other threads there is a vibration problem with the gimbal. What is my next move? Is this a repair job by DJI?
I reverted back to two firmware ago and the wobble and vibration in the image is gone. DJI sort your shizzle out please. We shouldn’t have to put up with this.

WOW! I'm shocked that a firmware update caused the wobble. Thats pretty bad that the update caused it.
Were you on FW .600?

I think you should contact support and explain the problem to them. There have been previous issues with the gimbal which were fixed with updates but it looks like there is still an issue.

After a morning flight. I have realised the wobble is still there. I dont think its is firmware related now. I think the gimbal is defective.
