Hey all... wondering what's going on with my gimbal and wheel.
Check out the youtube video and see what you think.


Sporadically the C1 button will work flipping the camera from horizontal to vertical position.
But when I try to raise and lower the camera with the wheel... it doesn't work and creates the "flutter" you see in the video.
Bad ribbon cable? Not sure.... any other ideas? This is a P3 pro.

thank you,

Albert

Do gymbal & imu calibrations few times and test.
Then try to reproduce this issue without props, just hit record and turn around bird so gimbal has to compensate movement. Turn it a lot, it has to work really well.

If same happens and you did removed foam thing from gimbal i would say it's not good. You'll have to ask DJI about next steps

You definitely need a gimbal calibration. Also check if there is anything stuck in the gimbal pitch motor, cause mostly it looks like a hardware problem

I have a similar problem. the camera wheel will only bring in up- but not down. after fooling around with it a lot- I discovered a very strange thing. when I set the gimbal speed to 30 or 70- it worked.
otherwise- it was stuck.
make any sense to you?

Interesting... I'll check it out and see if that makes a difference.
