Pretty consitently every time I go to start up my Mavic I get a gimbal overload warning and the gimbal fails to set up properly. So I reset and it is always successful on the second try? Is this an issue others have had? I cannot find any stickers and make sure the gimbal clamp is removed.

All good on the checklist. I flew today and have also began to notice some twitchiness in the gimbal when banking left and right.

It's snowing in your video.
What temperature were you flying in?
Is the firmware up to date?

me too. but the gimbal is ok (as shown in your video @DJI Mindy ).
It's blocked from right to left, not from up to down.

Hello, I have a gimbal issue, but after reading this thread I have discovered that rear anti-drop hook shown in the pre flight checks video has snapped off! I only hope I do not get charged hundreds of pounds for a very small plastic tab to get it fixed! Thanks for this thread, it helped a lot.
