I am having a persitent issue with the ronin S during the wedding I shot on friday and another shoot on sunday. I'm using the GH5 with nothing mounted to the camera and a very light 50mm lens.
During regular use, at random times, the ronin will stay on but the motors completly stop doing anything. I tried pausing it and restarting or moving the joystick, but nothing brings it back besides a restart. It did it in total about 15 times over the course of the wedding day. Thankfully I did not miss any SUPER important moments but I did miss a few that I wanted to have the gimbal angle of.

I checked that the firmware is up to date. My balance is excellent in every axis and I redid autotune a few different times and it is still happening. The battery is was full when using and getting this problem and i even tried a system calibration.

It was not used in any weather, or rigorous scenarios and I have not heavily used it. It was purchased in January and only used it for 5-6 shoots.
