Hello there baybay11. I am sorry for the trouble this has caused and thank you for reaching out. May we please know before having this issue with your DJI Mini 3 Pro, was there a hard landing or a crash that happened to your DJI Drone? In addition, kindly please post a short sample video showing the issue for us to be able to see. Thank you.

I've experienced the gimbal shaking at startup once or twice ( not every time) and that did once manifest itself in the video before takeoff.  I found that tapping the gimbal very gently stopped the vibration. It was almost like the gimbal couldn't quite finish its customary start-up dance.

I hope the problem doesn't persist - but it doesn't seem to affect the performance of the drone.

I had it several times But now it's Ok - I did nothing but think it might be related to this bad gimble protector which goes sideways all the time

I’ve tried several flights earlier which have all ended up with the results. I cannot figure out why its started to do this as the day before it was perfect. Once charged, it was stored in the box with the foam and guard fitted.
I will make contact with the team for advice tomorrow.

I have the same problem with my 3 mini pro. Looks like I’m not the only one.
I’ve tried to recalibrate IMU and cam stabilizer - it doesn’t help unfortunately.

I have had his too. But hasn't happened for weeks then last night it did it for about 20 secs on start up and then stopped. I thought it was the gimbal just randomly shaking itself down but maybe not?

It seems to be a random thing. More than 20 flights now and it's only happened three times.
A gentle tap stops it and I've had no ill-effects on footage.

Lets hope it's just a quirk, I'm guessing if this is going on while its in the air and you are trying to take a photo it would be blurry so going to keep a close eye on it. Do you screen record when you fly? I don't but have been thinking about it...

I never do - and with reports of the Mini3Pro overheating and exhibiting errors if you do, I'm not likely to try it.

Yes that was my other worry so maybe I should adopt the KISS principal here

Yes it does mess pictures quality up as the camera can focus correctly and is shaking

[backcolor=rgba(7, 28, 71, 0.05)]Hello! I got a new drone and it started making this disgusting camera suspension sound out of the box, the suspension also vibrates. When the drone turns in one direction, the sound disappears, in other directions it does not. The video is correspondingly substandard due to suspension yeast. What do you think - is it mechanical damage or software errors? I repeat - this problem is right out of the box. I have made several flights, recalibrated everything that is available, but the problem has not disappeared.   Well, after the firmware version 01.00.0300, the error 30064 came out   youtu.be/w93UjncHzew

I have had the problem twice while flying and once on the ground. I got the message EXCESSIVE GIMBAL VIBRATION. Once it then said GIMBAL MOTOR OVERLOAD. The gimbal was uncontrollable ant then just locked up at a funny angle. Once the drone was turned off and back on it was fine again.  I have had my DJI mini 3 pro for two days.

Same problem as above... brand new DJI Mini 3 Pro (yesterday), charged, turned it on, prompted firmware updates (aircraft is now 01.00.0400, and RC is 01.02.0000, app version 1.7.8 on the DJI RC). During the first MasterShots flight, it said "Gimbal motor overload" and I started seeing trembling on screen. Read every forum post I could, calibrated everything, tried again. Depending on how you start, you might get it right at the beginning or much later. On one of the attempts, it took a little bit of time for the wobbliness to appear on screen (and video), and once it does, it'll continue. Thinking whether I got a lemon and whether I should return it, vs wait a little bit and try to see if there's any additional instructions that I didn't find online yet, or a firmware update (seems to be common with a number of users, so it must be a bug in the firmware?)...

Mine got worse and worse until it wouldn’t function at all. I sent it back 5 days after getting it.

WOW!!! I've had the exact same issue with my Mini3 and usually happens when I'm videoing at the ocean
Here's a sample of my video. https://rumble.com/v1sbnd6-examp ... n-mini-3-video.html

Wondering if this requires the Mini3 to be shipped back DJI?

I appear to have this issue once again with a brand new Mini 3 Pro unit received directly from the oficial DJI Store…
Unboxed yesterday, It’s now the 5th drone with a manufacture defect.

Same issue. At the start, I can hear the gimbal noise from trembling (before taking off). I gently touch it, and it stops. I take off and fly a long distance. If I stop it or it stops it by signal loss, the trembling starts again. if I never stop it and take gentle curves back, it may work. At abrupt stops, it starts trembling. I bring the drone back to me at 1-meter height. I gently touch the gimbal (without landing), and it stops. Then I fly again (if the battery is low, I land, change the battery, and start again, same steps, every time).  I will probably buy a new one, so I can send this to repairs - did not check the guarantee yet.
- no problems during climbing up.
- only on horizontal movements and hard stops (release the lever on the controller). I will try never to release the lever abruptly and never lose signal   
I tried various flight modes, and the gimbal does not reverse to normal mode (no shaking)
During shaking, the video is in waves, and the photos are blurry (You can extract photos from video with editing software - somehow, the video focus is good (but the video can not be published), photo focus is crushed). I did not try anti-shaking software to repair the video - maybe later.
