I am experiencing gimball loss of signal or connection when i am flying aggressively, its like its loosing contact and powers off. Do i return the Inspire 1 or just the gimball?
i think that is normal when you transfer HD... called lag and may be massive lag due to interference on the area you fly.. just a highly possible guess.
I would have a quick look at the contacts at the bayonet connector.
And check for any debris, also check that the gimbal is fully home and locking in place properly.
The swivel lock is quite stiff all the white lines have to be aligned.
As it stands it sounds like the G forces that the camera will undergo during tight turns etc.
Could be breaking contact, and the bayonet would be the first place I would check.
The camera is a fair lump and in a tight turn could treble in weight.
I fixed it, it was the connectior, those little pins inside the connector. I pushed them up a bit, and now everithing works, like they where pushed in a bit.
Zach, I would think a bit of RTV would be a better choice instead of glue. The RTV can be broken easily if the screws had to be removed for a service or repair reason. Or better yet a smear of Loc-tight on the threads like you use at DJI. Just a thought.
I have to confirm that after a few flights the problem returned again, the gimbal is drifting by itself, the horizon is off etc...i am returning my Inspire 1 and asking for my $$ back. This is not a finished product. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesent...is not a good product in my book.
The problem is in connection between the gimbal and Inspire.
I returned my Inspire due to not getting live video feed to iPad and I think it caused by similar issue you had. I wasn't able to control gimbal either from controller.
Forums tend to be a place only when there is problem. When people are happy flying away - they don't bother to log it here as it would seem to be presumptuous.
Same thing when I first purchased the Phantom.
Btw - my INSPIRE crashed (pilot error) - camera and gimbal got yanked out... I fixed back the gimbal plate, bend back some pins.. and it is working flawless again. I would say this craft is built like a tank.
