I started a thread about this yesterday, but I cant fint it somewhere, so it might not have been published or anything before I closed the page.

But, I bought a DJI Osmo Mobile 2 just  1 1/2 week ago, and I have an annoying problem.
The first time i noticed this, was when using the Filmic app, and i thought it could be that DJI had "locked" the Osmo to just work with their app, but it happens also when using the GO app.

The thing is that the Osmo Mobile 2, just "turnes off", and dies - like the gimbals just shuts down, and the phone is dangeling. The unit itself is turned on, and i have to turn it off, and on again to make it work. Then it can be good for 15-20-40 minutes, and then just die again. The app says it has to be restartet, and thats what I do.
This is terrible for me, when shooting up to 30 min or more, and have to start all over again. I cant be walking around thinking: "Please dont shut down, please dont shut down" either :-P

Does anyone else have this problem, or got any tips for me to avoid this?

The symptoms are the same, as if I would turn the unit off while the phone is in the clip. It just stops balancing, but the lights are still lit.

Hello there. We apologize that you're having issues with your Osmo. Did you try to update the firmware? If yes, may I know what firmware version your unit currently have? May I also know what model of the mobile device are you using?

Is the phone balanced?  OSMO will shut down like that if the phone is not balanced and the motors have to work to hard to keep the position.

Please provide the firmware version and app version under "about" page which you could find as well on the gear icon and look for the general settings.

Have found another small bug, and that is that the Osmo keeps drifts by from time to time. If I put the Osmo on a tripod, it drift towards the left almost like a sloooooow pan :-/

If I hold the Oslo Mobile 2 still, like pointing on one fixed place, using a tripod, or holding it steady, it slowly turns towards the left without me turning..
